PCA9517A Level translating I2C-bus repeater Rev. 02 — 5 May 2008 Product data sheet 1. General description The PCA9517A is a CMOS integrated circuit that provides level shifting between low voltage (down to 0.9 V) and higher voltage (2.7 V to 5.5 V) I2C-bus or SMBus applications. While retaining all the operating modes and features of the I2C-bus system during the level shifts, it also permits extension of the I2C-bus by providing bidirectional buffering for both the data (SDA) and the clock (SCL) lines, thus enabling two buses of 400 pF. Using the PCA9517A enables the system designer to isolate two halves of a bus for both voltage and capacitance. The SDA and SCL pins are overvoltage tolerant and are high-impedance when the PCA9517A is unpowered. The 2.7 V to 5.5 V bus port B drivers behave much like the drivers on the PCA9515A device, while the adjustable voltage bus port A drivers drive more current and eliminate the static offset voltage. This results in a LOW on the port B translating into a nearly 0 V LOW on the port A which accommodates smaller voltage swings of lower voltage logic. The static offset design of the port B PCA9517A I/O drivers prevent them from being connected to another device that has rise time accelerator including the PCA9510, PCA9511, PCA9512, PCA9513, PCA9514, PCA9515A, PCA9516A, PCA9517A (port B), or PCA9518. Port A of two or more PCA9517As can be connected together, however, to allow a star topography with port A on the common bus, and port A can be connected directly to any other buffer with static or dynamic offset voltage. Multiple PCA9517As can be connected in series, port A to port B, with no build-up in offset voltage with only time of flight delays to consider. The PCA9517A drivers are not enabled unless VCC(A) is above 0.8 V and VCC(B) is above 2.5 V. The EN pin can also be used to turn the drivers on and off under system control. Caution should be observed to only change the state of the enable pin when the bus is idle. The output pull-down on the port B internal buffer LOW is set for approximately 0.5 V, while the input threshold of the internal buffer is set about 70 mV lower (0.43 V). When the port B I/O is driven LOW internally, the LOW is not recognized as a LOW by the input. This prevents a lock-up condition from occurring. The output pull-down on port A drives a hard LOW and the input level is set at 0.3VCC(A) to accommodate the need for a lower LOW level in systems where the low voltage side supply voltage is as low as 0.9 V.

The PCA9517A enables I2C-bus or SMBus translation down to VCC(A) as low as 0.9 V without degradation of system performance. The PCA9517A contains two bidirectional open-drain buffers specifically designed to support up-translation/down-translation between the low voltage (as low as 0.9 V) and a 3.3 V or 5 V I2C-bus or SMBus. All inputs and I/Os are overvoltage tolerant to 5.5 V even when the device is unpowered (VCC(B) and/or VCC(A) = 0 V). The PCA9517A includes a power-up circuit that keeps the output drivers turned off until VCC(B) is above 2.5 V and the VCC(A) is above 0.8 V. VCC(B) and VCC(A) can be applied in any sequence at power-up. After power-up and with the enable (EN) HIGH, a LOW level on port A (below 0.3VCC(A)) turns the corresponding port B driver (either SDA or SCL) on and drives port B down to about 0.5 V. When port A rises above 0.3VCC(A), the port B pull-down driver is turned off and the external pull-up resistor pulls the pin HIGH. When port B falls first and goes below 0.3VCC(B) the port A driver is turned on and port A pulls down to 0 V. The port B pull-down is not enabled unless the port B voltage goes below 0.4 V. If the port B low voltage does not go below 0.5 V, the port A driver will turn off when port B voltage is above 0.7VCC(B). If the port B low voltage goes below 0.4 V, the port B pull-down driver is enabled and port B will only be able to rise to 0.5 V until port A rises above 0.3VCC(A), then port B will continue to rise being pulled up by the external pull-up resistor. The VCC(A) is only used to provide the 0.3VCC(A) reference to the port A input comparators and for the power good detect circuit. The PCA9517A logic and all I/Os are powered by the VCC(B) pin. 6.1 Enable The EN pin is active HIGH with an internal pull-up to VCC(B) and allows the user to select when the repeater is active. This can be used to isolate a badly behaved slave on power-up until after the system power-up reset. It should never change state during an I2C-bus operation because disabling during a bus operation will hang the bus and enabling part way through a bus cycle could confuse the I2C-bus parts being enabled. The enable pin should only change state when the global bus and the repeater port are in an idle state to prevent system failures. 6.2 I2C-bus systems As with the standard I2C-bus system, pull-up resistors are required to provide the logic HIGH levels on the buffered bus (standard open-collector configuration of the I2C-bus). The size of these pull-up resistors depends on the system, but each side of the repeater must have a pull-up resistor. This part designed to work with Standard mode and Fast mode I2C-bus devices in addition to SMBus devices. Standard mode I2C-bus devices only specify 3 mA output drive; this limits the termination current to 3 mA in a generic I2C-bus system where Standard-mode devices and multiple masters are possible. Under certain conditions higher termination currents can be used. Please see Application Note AN255, I2C/SMBus Repeaters, Hubs and Expanders for additional information on sizing resistors and precautions when using more than one PCA9517A in a system or using the PCA9517A in conjunction with other bus buffers.

Application design-in information A typical application is shown in Figure 4. In this example, the system master is running on a 3.3 V I2C-bus while the slave is connected to a 1.2 V bus. Both buses run at 400 kHz. Master devices can be placed on either bus. 3.3 V 1.2 V 10 kΩ 10 kΩ VCC(B) VCC(A) SDA SDAB SDAA SDA SCL SCLB SCLA SCL BUS MASTER 400 kHz PCA9517A SLAVE 400 kHz EN bus B Fig 4. 10 kΩ 10 kΩ bus A 002aad468 Typical application The PCA9517A is 5 V tolerant, so it does not require any additional circuitry to translate between 0.9 V to 5.5 V bus voltages and 2.7 V to 5.5 V bus voltages. When port A of the PCA9517A is pulled LOW by a driver on the I2C-bus, a comparator detects the falling edge when it goes below 0.3VCC(A) and causes the internal driver on port B to turn on, causing port B to pull down to about 0.5 V. When port B of the PCA9517A falls, first a CMOS hysteresis type input detects the falling edge and causes the internal driver on port A to turn on and pull the port A pin down to ground. In order to illustrate what would be seen in a typical application, refer to Figure 8 and Figure 9. If the bus master in Figure 4 were to write to the slave through the PCA9517A, waveforms shown in Figure 8 would be observed on the A bus. This looks like a normal I2C-bus transmission except that the HIGH level may be as low as 0.9 V, and the turn on and turn off of the acknowledge signals are slightly delayed. On the B bus side of the PCA9517A, the clock and data lines would have a positive offset from ground equal to the VOL of the PCA9517A. After the 8th clock pulse, the data line will be pulled to the VOL of the slave device which is very close to ground in this example. At the end of the acknowledge, the level rises only to the LOW level set by the driver in the PCA9517A for a short delay while the A bus side rises above 0.3VCC(A) then it continues HIGH. It is important to note that any arbitration or clock stretching events require that the LOW level on the B bus side at the input of the PCA9517A (VIL) be at or below 0.4 V to be recognized by the PCA9517A and then transmitted to the A bus side. Multiple PCA9517A port A sides can be connected in a star configuration (Figure 5), allowing all nodes to communicate with each other. Multiple PCA9517As can be connected in series (Figure 6) as long as port A is connected to port B. I2C-bus slave devices can be connected to any of the bus segments. The number of devices that can be connected in series is limited by repeater delay/time-of-flight considerations on the maximum bus speed requirements. PCA9517A_2 Product data sheet © NXP B.V. 2008.

Soldering of SMD packages This text provides a very brief insight into a complex technology. A more in-depth account of soldering ICs can be found in Application Note AN10365 “Surface mount reflow soldering description”. 13.1 Introduction to soldering Soldering is one of the most common methods through which packages are attached to Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs), to form electrical circuits. The soldered joint provides both the mechanical and the electrical connection. There is no single soldering method that is ideal for all IC packages. Wave soldering is often preferred when through-hole and Surface Mount Devices (SMDs) are mixed on one printed wiring board; however, it is not suitable for fine pitch SMDs. Reflow soldering is ideal for the small pitches and high densities that come with increased miniaturization. 13.2 Wave and reflow soldering Wave soldering is a joining technology in which the joints are made by solder coming from a standing wave of liquid solder. The wave soldering process is suitable for the following: • Through-hole components • Leaded or leadless SMDs, which are glued to the surface of the printed circuit board Not all SMDs can be wave soldered. Packages with solder balls, and some leadless packages which have solder lands underneath the body, cannot be wave soldered. Also, leaded SMDs with leads having a pitch smaller than ~0.6 mm cannot be wave soldered, due to an increased probability of bridging. The reflow soldering process involves applying solder paste to a board, followed by component placement and exposure to a temperature profile. Leaded packages, packages with solder balls, and leadless packages are all reflow solderable. Key characteristics in both wave and reflow soldering are: • • • • • • Board specifications, including the board finish, solder masks and vias Package footprints, including solder thieves and orientation The moisture sensitivity level of the packages Package placement Inspection and repair Lead-free soldering versus SnPb soldering 13.3 Wave soldering Key characteristics in wave soldering are: • Process issues, such as application of adhesive and flux, clinching of leads, board transport, the solder wave parameters, and the time during which components are exposed to the wave • Solder bath specifications, including temperature and impurities PCA9517A_2 Product data sheet © NXP B.V. 2008.

It is imperative that the peak temperature is high enough for the solder to make reliable solder joints (a solder paste characteristic). In addition, the peak temperature must be low enough that the packages and/or boards are not damaged. The peak temperature of the package depends on package thickness and volume and is classified in accordance with Table 7 and 8 Table 7. SnPb eutectic process (from J-STD-020C) Package thickness (mm) Package reflow temperature (°C) Volume (mm3) < 350 ≥ 350 < 2.5 235 220 ≥ 2.5 220 220 Table 8. Lead-free process (from J-STD-020C) Package thickness (mm) Package reflow temperature (°C) Volume (mm3) < 350 350 to 2000 > 2000 < 1.6 260 260 260 1.6 to 2.5 260 250 245 > 2.5 250 245 245 Moisture sensitivity precautions, as indicated on the packing, must be respected at all times. Studies have shown that small packages reach higher temperatures during reflow soldering, see Figure 16. PCA9517A_2 Product data sheet © NXP B.V. 2008. All rights reserved.
