NCA9511 is a hot-swappable I2C bus buffer that supports insertion of I/O cards into a powered backplane without damaging the data or the clock bus. The control circuit prevents the backplane side I2C line (input) from connecting to the card side I2C line (output) until a stop command or bus idle condition occurs on the backplane and there is no bus contention on the card. After the connection is established, the component will provide two-way buffering so that the capacitors of the backplane and card remain separate. During insertion, the SDA and SCL wires are pre-charged to 1V to minimize the current required to charge the parasitic capacitance of the component. When the I2C bus is idle, the NCA9511 can be set to shutdown mode by setting the EN pin low, thereby reducing power consumption. When EN is pulled high, NCA9511 resumes normal operation. It also includes an open-drain READY output pin that indicates that the backplane is connected to the card side. When READY level is high, SDAIN and SCLIN are connected to SDAOUT and SCLOUT. When both sides are disconnected, READY level is low.
