TCA9803: TCA9803 A/B side current source issue

Part Number: TCA9803

Hello TI

    When A side is driving low and B side also needs to drive low, at this time if  A side is sinking some amount of current from B side current source?

thanks

  • Hi John,

    No. The two sides are separate from each other since the device itself is a redriver. A side does not sink current from its own B side. What I was explaining in that paragraph was the definition of I2C low level contention where both sides are driving low at the same time EXTERNALLY.

    Thanks,
