MILPITAS, CA June 2, 2015 Linear Technology Corporation introduces the LTC4316/LTC4317/LTC4318 family of I²C/SMBus address translators that enable multiple slaves with identical addresses, such as temperature sensors, to individually communicate with the master without conflicts. Address conflicts arise when slaves with the same hardwired address are placed on the same bus. Traditional solutions have used I²C multiplexers or switches to softwareselect or pinselect the slave that needs addressing. The LTC431618 are transparent solutions that
replace I²C Muxes and switches. The LTC4316/LTC4317/LTC4318 do not require any software programming or ENABLE control lines, allowing masters to make direct calls to slaves using unique translated addresses that are configured by external resistors.
The address translators provide simple address expansion for both I²C and SMBus systems, as well as voltage level translation for 2.5V, 3.3V and 5V busses. ±4kV HBM ESD, 1V precharging, and glitch filtering of the bus pins make the address translators rugged enough for live board insertion and removal applications. A passthrough mode enables users to temporarily disable address translation and allows for general call addressing by the master. In addition, a stuck bus timer monitors if the SCL line stays low or high for more than 30ms, aborting the address translation and reconnecting the SDAIN to SDAOUT in any stuck bus situations.
The LTC4316 single (1 input/1 output) is available in 10lead 3mm x 3mm DFN and 10lead MSOP packages. The LTC4317 "Y" configuration (1 input/2 outputs) is available in a 16lead 5mm x 3mm DFN package. The LTC4318 dual (2 inputs/2 outputs) is available in a 20lead 4mm x 4mm QFN package. Offered over the commercial and industrial temperature ranges, pricing for the LTC4316, LTC4317 and LTC4318, starts at $1.45, $1.75 and $1.95 each, respectively, for 1000piece quantities.
