PCA9515A Dual Bidirectional I2C Bus SMBus Repeater Module

PCA9515A Dual Bidirectional I2C Bus SMBus Repeater Module

The PCA9515A is a dual bidirectional I2C/SMBus repeater module that is designed to extend the communication range and increase the number of devices that can be connected to an I2C or SMBus system. It acts as a signal repeater, enabling reliable communication between multiple I2C or SMBus devices over longer distances, or when the bus is heavily loaded.

DNA solutions, Nashik has various types of Module's. Check out our complete collection of Module's.

• Dual Bidirectional Repeater: The PCA9515A has two independent bidirectional channels, each of which can extend an I2C or SMBus communication line

• I2C and SMBus Compatibility: It supports both I2C (Inter-Integrated Circuit) and SMBus (System Management Bus) protocols, which are widely used for communication between microcontrollers and peripheral devices like sensors, EEPROMs, and displays

• Signal Repeating: It boosts the signal integrity over long distances, allowing reliable communication even with long cables or multiple devices on the bus

• Multiple Devices Support: With the signal amplification, it helps to drive larger I2C networks with many connected devices (more than the standard bus can handle)
