General description

in point-to-point or multipoint applications of up to 4000 pF. The PCA9600 is a

higher-speed version of the P82B96. It creates a non-latching, bidirectional, logic interface

bus configurations. It can operate at speeds up to at least 1 MHz, and the high drive side

is compatible with the Fast-mode Plus (Fm+) specifications.

The PCA9600 features temperature-stabilized logic voltage levels at its SX/SY interface

such as SMBus, PMBus, or with microprocessors that use those same TTL logic levels.

enables the SDA and SCL signals to be transmitted via balanced transmission lines

(twisted pairs), or with galvanic isolation using opto or magnetic coupling. The TX and RX

signals may be connected together to provide a normal bidirectional signal.
