Hello !
I am using the SN74TVC3306 dual-votlage clamp to interface an I2C master at 1.8 V, to an I2C slave powered down to 0.5 V. It is working correctly down to 0.7 V (on the slave side), but my slave seems to be unable to pull-down the SDA signal when the power supply is lower than 0.7 V. There is only one master and one slave on the I2C bus.
My question is :
- can I use the SN74TVC3306 down to 0.5 V voltage supply on the slave side ? If not, is there any solution in integrated or discrete form ?
