PCA9548A: fail to switch

Part Number: PCA9548A

Hi Sir,

 

Could you please help me to check that the trigger signal of PCA9548A? 

If I wish to switch the mux to channel 5 (0x20), as Pic A and Pic B show. 

Could you please help to verify both PicA & B are both switch well?

In my test result, Pic A may get some problem that can not switch successfully.

Does it have some restrict of protocol type?

  • Hey Anne,

    The scopeshots are quite zoomed out. Can you zoom in closer so I can do the bit analysis on the transaction you believe is failing?

    Thanks,

  • Hi Bobby,

    Here is zoom-in waveform as attachment.

    Customer is doing more test today and the result as below.
    As Pic A and Pic B show that we use two kinds of BMC polling form.
    One is Write + Read and the other is Write.
    As our result shows that, form “Write” could be work on PCA9548APW, but form “Write + Read” would not work.
    Interesting that the form of “Write + Read ” can work at another 9548 from another vendor.
    Is there any restrict about polling type ?

    Pic A not work– BMC polling form : Write + Read


    Pic B  work well – BMC polling form : Write

  • Hello,

    It looks like the issue is that you are not issuing a stop condition after you perform a write.

    Our device requires a stop condition after the write inorder to execute the command of enabling/disabling channels.
