Description

The TCA9548A I2C multiplexer allows you to communicate with up to 8 I2C devices with the same I2C bus. The multiplexer communicates with a microcontroller using the I2C communication protocol. Then, you can select which I2C bus on the multiplexer you want to address.

To address a specific port, you just need to send a single byte to the multiplexer with the desired output port number.

Features:

  • 1 to 8 bidirectional translating switches
  • Active-low reset input
  • Three address pins—up to 8 TCA9548A devices on the same I2C bus
  • Channel selection through an I2C bus
  • Operating power supply voltage range: 1.65V to 5.5V
  • 5V tolerant pins

TCA9548A Multiplexer I2C Address:

The TCA9548A Multiplexer communicates with a microcontroller using the I2C communication protocol. So, it needs an I2C address. The address of the multiplexer is configurable. You can select a value from 0x70 to 0x77 by adjusting the values of the A0, A1, and A2 pins, as shown in the table below.

A0 A1 A2 I2C Address
LOW LOW LOW 0x70
HIGH LOW LOW 0x71
LOW HIGH LOW 0x72
HIGH HIGH LOW 0x73
LOW LOW HIGH 0x74
HIGH LOW HIGH 0x75
LOW HIGH HIGH 0x76
HIGH HIGH HIGH 0x77
