DESCRIPTION
The TCA9406 is a dual bidirectional I2C-Bus and SMBus Voltage-Level translator with enable (OE) Input. It is
operational from 1.65 V to 3.6 V on A-Port and 2.3 V to 5.5 V on B-port. The Output Enable (OE) input is
referenced to VCCA, but is 5.5V tolerant
The device can also be used as a general purpose level-translator, supporting push-pull driving of the A and
B ports. When driven with push-pull devices on both sides the TCA9406 can support up to 24Mps.
Under normal I2C and SMBus operation or other open drain configurations, the device can support up to
2Mbps. It is compatible with a standard I2C bus 100 kHz, 400 kHz and 1 MHz at both sides of A-Port and B-
Port.
The TCA9406 features internal 10kOHM pullup resistors. Additional external pullup resistors can be added to
the bus to reduce total pullup resistance.
