TCA9517DR datasheet by Texas Instruments

TCA9517DR Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum frequency of the I2C bus that the TCA9517DR can support?
  The TCA9517DR can support I2C bus frequencies up to 400 kHz.
• Can the TCA9517DR be used in a multi-master I2C bus configuration?
  Yes, the TCA9517DR can be used in a multi-master I2C bus configuration, but it requires external circuitry to prevent bus contention.
• How does the TCA9517DR handle clock stretching?
  The TCA9517DR does not support clock stretching, so it is not suitable for use with I2C devices that require clock stretching.
• What is the maximum capacitance of the I2C bus that the TCA9517DR can drive?
  The TCA9517DR can drive I2C buses with capacitances up to 400 pF.
• Can the TCA9517DR be used in a hot-swappable I2C bus configuration?
  Yes, the TCA9517DR can be used in a hot-swappable I2C bus configuration, but it requires external circuitry to prevent bus contention and ensure proper device initialization.
