The LTC
®
4306 is a 4-channel, 2-wire bus multiplexer with
bus buffers to provide capacitive isolation between the
upstream bus and downstream buses. Through software
control, the LTC4306 connects the upstream 2-wire bus to
any desired combination of downstream buses. Each
channel can be pulled up to a supply voltage ranging from
2.2V to 5.5V, independent of the LTC4306 supply voltage.
The downstream channels are also provided with
ALERT1-ALERT4 inputs for fault reporting.
Programmable timeout circuitry disconnects the down-
stream buses if the bus is stuck low. When activated, rise
time accelerators source currents into the 2-wire bus pins
to reduce rise time. Driving the ENABLE pin low restores
all features to their default states. Three address pins
provide 27 distinct addresses.
The LTC4306 is available in 24-lead QFN (4mm × 5mm)
and SSOP packages.
