1. General description
The PCA9615 is a Fast-mode Plus (Fm+) SMBus/I2C-bus buffer that extends the normal
single-ended SMBus/I2C-bus through electrically noisy environments using a differential
SMBus/I2C-bus (dI2C) physical layer, which is transparent to the SMBus/I2C-bus protocol
layer. It consists of two single-ended to differential driver channels for the SCL (serial
clock) and SDA (serial data).
The use of differential transmission lines between identical dI2C bus buffers removes
electrical noise and common-mode offsets that are present when signal lines must pass
between different voltage domains, are bundled with hostile signals, or run adjacent to
electrical noise sources, such as high energy power supplies and electric motors.
The SMBus/I2C-bus was conceived as a simple slow speed digital link for short runs,
typically on a single PCB or between adjacent PCBs with a common ground connection.
Applications that extend the bus length or run long cables require careful design to
preserve noise margin and reject interference.
The dI2C-bus buffers were designed to solve these problems and are ideally suited for
rugged high noise environments and/or longer cable applications, allow multiple slaves,
and operate at bus speeds up to 1 MHz clock rate. Cables can be extended to at least
3 meters (3 m), or longer cable runs at lower clock speeds. The dI2C-bus buffers are
compatible with existing SMBus/I2C-bus devices and can drive Standard, Fast-mode, and
Fast-mode Plus devices on the single-ended side.
Signal direction is automatic, and requires no external control. To prevent bus latch up,
the standard SMBus/I2C-bus side of the bus buffer, the PCA9615 employs static offset,
care should be taken when connecting these to other SMBus/I2C-bus buffers that may not
operate with offset.
This device is a bridge between the normal 2-wire single-ended wired-OR SMBus/I2C-bus
and the 4-wire dI2C-bus.
Additional circuitry allows the PCA9615 to be used for ‘hot swap’ applications, where
systems are always on, but require insertion or removal of modules or cards without
disruption to existing signals.
The PCA9615 has two supply voltages, VDD(A) and VDD(B). VDD(A), the card side supply,
only serves as a reference and ranges from 2.3 V to 5.5 V. VDD(B), the line side supply,
serves as the majority supply for circuitry and ranges from 3.0 V to 5.5 V.

7. Functional description
Refer to Figure 2.
The PCA9615 is used at each node of the dI2C-bus signal path, to provide conversion
from the dI2C-bus signal format to conventional I2C-bus/SMBus, allowing the connection
of existing I2C-bus/SMBus devices as slaves or the bus master. Because the signal
voltages on the I2C-bus/SMBus bus side may be different from the dI2C-bus side, there
are two power supply pins and a common ground. To prevent bus latch-up, the
I2C-bus/SMBus side employs static offset. Signal direction is determined by the
I2C-bus/SMBus bus protocol, and does not require a direction signal, as these bus buffers
automatically set signal flow direction. An enable pin (EN) is provided to disable the bus
buffer, and is useful for fault finding, power-up sequencing, or reconfiguration of a large
bus system by isolating sections not needed at all times.
Construction of the differential transmission line is not device-dependent. PCB traces,
open wiring, twisted-pair cables or a combination of these may be used. Twisted-pair
cables offer the best performance. A typical twisted-pair transmission line cable has a
characteristic impedance of ‘about 100 ’ and must be terminated at both ends in 100
to prevent unwanted signal reflections. Multiple nodes (each using a dI2C-bus buffer) may
be connected at any point along this transmission line, however, the stub length degrades
the bus performance, and should therefore be minimized.
7.1 I2C-bus/SMBus side
The I2C-bus/SMBus side of the PCA9615 differential bus buffer is connected to other
I2C-bus/SMBus devices and requires pull-up resistors on each of the SCL and SDA
signals. The value of the resistor should be chosen based on the bus capacitance and
desired data speed, being careful not to overload the driver current rating of 3 mA for
Standard and Fast modes, 30 mA for Fast-mode Plus (Fm+). The I2C-bus/SMBus side of
the PCA9615 is powered from the VDD(A) supply pin.
7.2 dI2C-bus side differential pair
In previous I2C-bus/SMBus designs, the nodes (Master and one or more Slaves) are
connected by wired-OR in combination with a single pull-up resistor. This simple
arrangement is not suited for long distances more than 1 meter (1 m) or about 3 feet (3 ft),
due to ringing and reflections on the un-terminated bus. The use of a transmission line
with correct termination eliminates this problem, and is further improved by differential
signaling used in the dI2C-bus scheme. Each node acts as both a driver and a receiver to
allow bidirectional signal flow, but not at the same time. Switching from transmit to receive
is done automatically. The dI2C-bus side of the PCA9615 is powered from the VDD(B)
supply pin.
The dI2C-bus is also biased to an idle state (D+ more positive than D) to be compatible
with the I2C-bus/SMBus wired-OR scheme, when not transmitting traffic (data). This
allows every node to receive broadcast messages from the Master, and return ACK/NACK
and data in response. Biasing is done with additional resistors, connected to VDD(B) and
VSS (the local ground), as shown in Figure 5. The transmission line is terminated in the
characteristic impedance of the cable, typically 100 . This is the value defined by three
resistors, the other two resistors providing the idle condition bias to the twisted pair.

7.2.1 Noise rejection
Impulse noise coupled into the I2C-bus/SMBus signals can prevent the I2C-bus/SMBus
bus from operating reliably. The hostile signals may appear on the SCL line, SDA line, or
both. Impulse noise may also enter the common ground connection, or be caused by
current in the ground path caused by DC power supplies, or other signals sharing the
common ground return path. This problem is removed by using a differential transmission
line, in place of the I2C-bus/SMBus signal path. The dI2C-bus receiver (at each dI2C-bus
node) subtracts the signals on the two differential lines (D+ and D), and eliminates any
common-mode noise that is coupled into the dI2C-bus. The receiver amplifies the signals
which are also attenuated by the bulk resistance of the transmission line cable
connection, and does not rely on a common ground connection at each node.
7.2.2 Rejection of ground offset voltage
Hostile signals interfere with the I2C-bus/SMBus bus through the common ground
connection between each node. Current in this ground path causes an offset that may
cause false data or push the I2C-bus/SMBus signals outside of an acceptable range.
Unwanted ground offset can be caused by heavy DC current in the ground path, or
injection of ground current from AC signals, either of which may show up as false signals.
Because the dI2C-bus node receiver responds only to the difference between the two
dI2C-bus transmission lines, common-mode signals are ignored. There is no need to have
a ground connection between each of the nodes, which may be powered locally. Nodes
may also be powered by extra conductors (for VDD and ground) run with the dI2C-bus
signals. Voltage offsets caused by DC current in these additional wires are ignored by the
dI2C-bus receiver, which subtracts the two differential signals (D+ and D).
7.3 EN pin
Enable input to connect the device into the bus. When this pin is LOW, the device never
connects to the bus, and disconnect the SCL/SDA from differential SCL/SDA. When EN is
driven HIGH, and VDD(A) and VDD(B) are stable, the EN pin connects SDA/SCL to
differential SDA/SCL after a stop bit or bus idle has been detected on differential line bus.
It should never change state during an I2C-bus/SMBus operation because disabling
during a bus operation hangs the bus and enabling part way through a bus cycle could
confuse the I2C-bus/SMBus parts being enabled. The EN pin should only change state
when the global bus and the buffer port are in an idle state to prevent system failures.

7.4 Hot swap and power-on reset
During a power-on sequence, an initialization circuit holds the PCA9615 in a disconnected
state, meaning all outputs — SDA, SCL and the differential pins DSCLP/DSCLM and
DSDAP/DSDAM — are in a high-impedance state. As the power supply rises (either
power-up or live insertion), the initialization circuit enters a state where the internal
references are stabilized and an internal timer is triggered. After 1 ms, power is applied to
the rest of the circuitry and the PCA9615 detects the status on the differential
DSCLP/DSCLM and DSDAP/DSDAM lines. When the differential lines are detected as
connected to a bus with valid termination, that is, both DSCLM/DSDAM < 0.9 VDD(B) and
DSCLP/DSDAP > 0.1 VDD(B), another timer is triggered. At the end of 10 ms, hot-swap
logic (Figure 2) is enabled and the EN pin can detect a Stop Bit and Bus Idle condition.
However, there is still no connection between SDA and DSDAP/DSDAM or between SCL
and DSCLP/DSCLM. A successful EN pin sequence must occur for actual connection.
When the EN pin is set HIGH and the DSDAP and DSCLP pins have been HIGH for the
bus idle time or when both the SCL and SDA pins are HIGH and a STOP condition has
been seen on the differential bus (DSDAP/DSDAM and DSCLP/DSCLM pins), a
connection is established between the differential and the single-ended buses. Whenever
disconnected status is detected or the device is unpowered, the PCA9615 disconnects
the single-ended to differential buses, and the hot swap sequence repeats again before
the PCA9615 connects SDA to DSDAP/DSDAM and SCL to DSCLP/DSCLM.
Remark: Start-up process is the same for both PCA9616PW and PCA9615DP, except
that PIDET and READY signals are only available in 16-pin package.

8. Application design-in information
8.1 I2C-bus
As with the standard I2C-bus system, pull-up resistors are required to provide the logic
HIGH levels on the single-ended buffered bus (standard open-drain configuration of the
I2C-bus). The size of these pull-up resistors depends on the system. The device is
designed to work with Standard-mode, Fast-mode and Fast-mode Plus I2C-bus devices in
addition to SMBus devices. Standard-mode and Fast-mode I2C-bus and SMBus 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. When
only Fast-mode Plus devices are used, then higher termination currents can be used due
to their 30 mA sink capability.
8.2 Differential I2C-bus application
See Figure 7 through Figure 9.
The simple application (Figure 7) shows an existing SMBus/I2C-bus being extended over
a section of dI2C-bus transmission line, containing a dedicated twisted pair for SCL and
SDA. At one end of the transmission line, a resistor network (R1-R2-R1) terminates the
twisted-pair cable and biases D+ positive with respect to D. An identical resistor network
at the other end of the transmission line terminates the twisted-pair cable. DC power for
each end of the transmission line and the VDD(B) of each PCA9615 bus buffer can be from
separate and isolated power supplies, or use the same supply and ground run in separate
wires along the same path as the dI2C-bus signal twisted pairs.
Telecom category 5 (‘CAT 5’) data cable is well suited for this task, but loose wires may
also be used, with a reduction in performance. Assuming VDD(B) is 5 V, and using CAT 5
cable, R2 is 120 , R1 is 600 . The parallel combination yields a termination of 100 at
each end of the twisted pairs.
Either side of the dI2C-bus buffer pair is connected to standard SMBus/I2C buses, which
require their own pull-up resistors to VDD(A) of the PCA9615 bus buffers. VDD(A) and VDD(B)
can be the same supply, however, making them different voltages enables the PCA9615
bus buffers to level translate between the SMBus/I2C-bus and dI2C-bus sections of the
bus, or to have different supply voltages and level translate at either end of the dI2C-bus
and SMBus/I2C-bus system.
For example, the left-hand bus master (and local slave) may operate on a 3.3 V supply
and SMBus/I2C-bus while the dI2C-bus transmission lines are at 5 V, and the right-hand
slave is operated from a different 3.3 V supply and SMBus/I2C-bus, or even a different bus
voltage other than 3.3 V.
Depending upon the timing from the system master, clock toggle rates can vary from
10 kHz for the SMBus (or less for SMBus/I2C-bus protocol) up to 100 kHz (Standard
mode), 400 kHz (Fast mode), or up to 1 MHz (Fast-mode Plus).
The bus path is bidirectional. Assume that the left side SMBus/I2C-bus becomes active. A
START condition (SDA goes LOW while SDA is HIGH) is sent. This upsets the idle
condition on the dI2C-bus section of the bus, because D+ was more positive than D and

2-channel multipoint Fm+ dI2C-bus buffer with hot-swap logic
now they are reversed. The right side bus buffer sees the differential lines change polarity
and in turn pulls SDA LOW on the SMBus/I2C-bus side of the bus buffer, transmitting the
START condition to the slave on that section of the SMBus/I2C-bus.
If the data clocked out by the left side master contains a valid address of the right side
slave, that slave responds by pulling SDA LOW on the ninth clock. This condition is
transmitted across the dI2C-bus section that has now changed flow direction, and
received by the left side bus buffer (again, D+ was more positive than D and now they
are reversed).
This sequence continues until the master sends the STOP condition (SCL HIGH while
SDA goes HIGH), placing the active slave (on the right side) back to idle. When idle, the
normal SMBus/I2C-bus (both left and right sections) are pulled up by their respective
pull-ups. In turn, the dI2C-bus section of the bus rests with D+ more positive than D.
The idle condition can be changed by any node on either SMBus/I2C-bus section or an
additional dI2C-bus node, if present, on the dI2C-bus section of the system. This allows
the existing SMBus/I2C-bus protocol to operate transparently over a mix of SMBus/I2C
and dI2C bus segments.
Due to the SMBus/I2C-bus handshake protocol (ACK/NACK on the ninth clock pulse), the
direction of the SMBus/I2C-bus is reversed often. The ‘time of flight’ for the signals to pass
through each bus buffer and for the target slave to respond defines the maximum speed of
the bus, regardless of how fast the clock toggles. The dI2C-bus section of the bus requires
two additional PCA9615 bus buffers, further delaying the SMBus/I2C-bus traffic. If the
dI2C-bus transmission line section is made longer, the bus operates much slower,
regardless of the clock toggle speed.
It is not necessary to have a ground connection between each end of the dI2C section of
the bus. The dI2C-bus receiver responds to reversal of the polarity of the D+ and D
signals, and ignores the common-mode voltage that may be present.
Ideally, the common-mode voltage is the same at each end of the twisted pairs, and no
current flows along the twisted pair when the bus is idle, because the D+ and D dI2C-bus
drivers are both high-impedance, the bus is biased by R1-R2-R1 at each end. If the
common-mode voltage is not 0 V, current flows along the twisted pair, returning through
the common ground or common power supply connection if present.
If both ends of the twisted pair are powered by the same VDD(B) supply and one end is
remote, there will be a common-mode offset between them. This is ignored by the
dI2C-bus receivers, which only respond to the difference between D+ and D.
However, a large common-mode offset voltage forces the D+ and D signals out of the
range of the receiver, and data are lost. The PCA9615 bus buffers use standard ESD
protection networks to protect the external pins, and therefore should not be biased above
or below the VDD(B) and VSS pins respectively. This limits the common-mode range to
approximately 0.5 VDD(B).
DC resistance of the transmission line attenuates the signals, more so over longer
distances. The loss of signal amplitude is made up by the gain of the dI2C-bus receiver.
There is a limit to how long the dI2C-bus section can be made, as it is necessary for the
driver to overcome the bias on the transmission line, in order to signal a polarity change
(D+ and D reversal) at the receiver end.

Remark: There is only one ground pin on the PCA9615, so the single-ended I2C-bus signals that are not ground offset tolerant must be referenced to the ground pin on
the part. And any ground offset must be on the differential side where the differential input and output can tolerate a ground offset of up to 0.5 VDD(B).

14. 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”.
14.1 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.
14.2 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
14.3 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

14.4 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 19) 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 7 and 8

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 19.
