PCA9515A
I2C-bus repeater
Rev. 5 — 23 March 2012
Product data sheet
1. General description
The PCA9515A is a CMOS integrated circuit intended for application in I2C-bus and
SMBus systems.
While retaining all the operating modes and features of the I2C-bus system, it permits
extension of the I2C-bus by buffering both the data (SDA) and the clock (SCL) lines, thus
enabling two buses of 400 pF.
The I2C-bus capacitance limit of 400 pF restricts the number of devices and bus length.
Using the PCA9515A enables the system designer to isolate two halves of a bus, thus
more devices or longer length can be accommodated. It can also be used to run two
buses, one at 5 V and the other at 3.3 V or a 400 kHz and 100 kHz bus, where the
100 kHz bus is isolated when 400 kHz operation of the other is required.
Two or more PCA9515As cannot be put in series. The PCA9515A design does not
allow this configuration. Since there is no direction pin, slightly different ‘legal’ low voltage
levels are used to avoid lock-up conditions between the input and the output. A ‘regular
LOW’ applied at the input of a PCA9515A will be propagated as a ‘buffered LOW’ with a
slightly higher value. When this ‘buffered LOW’ is applied to another PCA9515A,
PCA9516A or PCA9518/A in series, the second PCA9515A, PCA9516A or PCA9518/A
will not recognize it as a ‘regular LOW’ and will not propagate it as a ‘buffered LOW’ again.
The PCA9510/A, PCA9511/A, PCA9512/A, PCA9513/A, PCA9514/A cannot be used in
series with the PCA9515A, PCA9516A or PCA9518/A, but can be used in series with
themselves since they use shifting instead of static offsets to avoid lock-up conditions.
The output pull-down of each internal buffer is set for approximately 0.5 V, while the input
threshold of each internal buffer is set about 0.07 V lower, when the output is internally
driven LOW. This prevents a lock-up condition from occurring.

Pin description
HWSON8 package die supply ground is connected to both GND pin and exposed center pad. GND pin
must be connected to supply ground for proper device operation. For enhanced thermal, electrical, and
board level performance, the exposed pad needs to be soldered to the board using a corresponding
thermal pad on the board and for proper head conduction through the board, thermal vias need to be
incorporated in the printed-circuit board in the thermal pad region.

6. Functional description
Refer to Figure 1 “Functional diagram of PCA9515A”.
The PCA9515A integrated circuit contains two identical buffer circuits which enable
I2C-bus and similar bus systems to be extended without degradation of system
performance.
The PCA9515A contains two bidirectional, open-drain buffers specifically designed to
support the standard LOW-level contention arbitration of the I2C-bus. Except during
arbitration or clock stretching, the PCA9515A acts like a pair of non-inverting, open-drain
buffers, one for SDA and one for SCL.
6.1 Enable
The EN pin is active HIGH with an internal pull-up and allows the user to select when the
repeater is active. This can be used to isolate a badly behaved slave on power-up until
after the system power-up reset. It should never change state during an I2C-bus operation
because disabling during a bus operation will hang the bus and enabling part way through
a bus cycle could confuse the I2C-bus parts being enabled.
The enable pin should only change state when the global bus and the repeater port are in
an idle state to prevent system failures.
6.2 I2C-bus systems
As with the standard I2C-bus system, pull-up resistors are required to provide the logic
HIGH levels on the buffered bus (standard open-collector configuration of the I2C-bus).
The size of these pull-up resistors depends on the system, but each side of the repeater
must have a pull-up resistor. This part designed to work with Standard-mode and
Fast-mode I2C-bus devices in addition to SMBus devices. Standard-mode I2C-bus
devices only specify 3 mA output drive; this limits the termination current to 3 mA in a
generic I2C-bus system where Standard-mode devices and multiple masters are possible.
Under certain conditions higher termination currents can be used.
Please see Application Note AN255, I2C/SMBus Repeaters, Hubs and Expanders for
additional information on sizing resistors and precautions when using more than one
PCA9515A/PCA9516A in a system or using the PCA9515A/PCA9516A in conjunction
with the P82B96.

7. Application design-in information
A typical application is shown in Figure 5. In this example, the system master is running
on a 3.3 V I2C-bus while the slave is connected to a 5 V bus. Both buses run at 100 kHz
unless the slave bus is isolated and then the master bus can run at 400 kHz. Master
devices can be placed on either bus.

Typical application
The PCA9515A is 5 V tolerant, so it does not require any additional circuitry to translate
between the different bus voltages.
When one side of the PCA9515A is pulled LOW by a device on the I2C-bus, a CMOS
hysteresis type input detects the falling edge and causes the internal driver on the other
side to turn on, thus causing the other side to also go LOW. The side driven LOW by the
PCA9515A will typically be at VOL = 0.5 V.
In order to illustrate what would be seen in a typical application, refer to Figure 6 and
Figure 7. If the bus master in Figure 5 were to write to the slave through the PCA9515A,
we would see the waveform shown in Figure 6 on bus 0. This looks like a normal I2C-bus
transmission until the falling edge of the eighth clock pulse. At that point, the master
releases the data line (SDA) while the slave pulls it LOW through the PCA9515A.
Because the VOL of the PCA9515A is typically round 0.5 V, a step in the SDA will be seen.
After the master has transmitted the ninth clock pulse, the slave releases the data line.
On the bus 1 side of the PCA9515A, the clock and data lines would have a positive offset
from ground equal to the VOL of the PCA9515A. After the eighth clock pulse the data line
will be pulled to the VOL of the slave device, which is very close to ground in this example.
It is important to note that any arbitration or clock stretching events on bus 1 require that
the VOL of the PCA9515A (see VOLVILc in Section 9 “Static characteristics”) to be
recognized by the PCA9515A and then transmitted to bus 0.

13. Soldering of SMD packages
This text provides a very brief insight into a complex technology. A more in-depth account
of soldering ICs can be found in Application Note AN10365 “Surface mount reflow
soldering description”.
13.1 Introduction to soldering
Soldering is one of the most common methods through which packages are attached to
Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs), to form electrical circuits. The soldered joint provides both
the mechanical and the electrical connection. There is no single soldering method that is
ideal for all IC packages. Wave soldering is often preferred when through-hole and
Surface Mount Devices (SMDs) are mixed on one printed wiring board; however, it is not
suitable for fine pitch SMDs. Reflow soldering is ideal for the small pitches and high
densities that come with increased miniaturization.
13.2 Wave and reflow soldering
Wave soldering is a joining technology in which the joints are made by solder coming from
a standing wave of liquid solder. The wave soldering process is suitable for the following:
• Through-hole components
• Leaded or leadless SMDs, which are glued to the surface of the printed circuit board
Not all SMDs can be wave soldered. Packages with solder balls, and some leadless
packages which have solder lands underneath the body, cannot be wave soldered. Also,
leaded SMDs with leads having a pitch smaller than ~0.6 mm cannot be wave soldered,
due to an increased probability of bridging.
The reflow soldering process involves applying solder paste to a board, followed by
component placement and exposure to a temperature profile. Leaded packages,
packages with solder balls, and leadless packages are all reflow solderable.
Key characteristics in both wave and reflow soldering are:
•
•
•
•
•
•
Board specifications, including the board finish, solder masks and vias
Package footprints, including solder thieves and orientation
The moisture sensitivity level of the packages
Package placement
Inspection and repair
Lead-free soldering versus SnPb soldering
13.3 Wave soldering
Key characteristics in wave soldering are:
• Process issues, such as application of adhesive and flux, clinching of leads, board
transport, the solder wave parameters, and the time during which components are
exposed to the wave
• Solder bath specifications, including temperature and impurities

13.4 Reflow soldering
Key characteristics in reflow soldering are:
• Lead-free versus SnPb soldering; note that a lead-free reflow process usually leads to
higher minimum peak temperatures (see Figure 13) than a SnPb process, thus
reducing the process window
• Solder paste printing issues including smearing, release, and adjusting the process
window for a mix of large and small components on one board
• Reflow temperature profile; this profile includes preheat, reflow (in which the board is
heated to the peak temperature) and cooling down. It is imperative that the peak
temperature is high enough for the solder to make reliable solder joints (a solder paste
characteristic). In addition, the peak temperature must be low enough that the
packages and/or boards are not damaged. The peak temperature of the package
depends on package thickness and volume and is classified in accordance with
Table 8 and 9

Moisture sensitivity precautions, as indicated on the packing, must be respected at all
times.
Studies have shown that small packages reach higher temperatures during reflow
soldering, see Figure 13.
