PCU9669

PCU9669 Parallel bus to 1 channel Fm+ and 2 channel UFm I2C-bus controller Rev. 2 — 1 July 2011 Product data sheet 1. General description The PCU9669 is an advanced single master mode I2C-bus controller. It is a fourth generation bus controller designed for data intensive I2C-bus data transfers. It has three independent I2C-bus channels, one of them with data rates up to 1 Mbits/s using the Fast-mode Plus (Fm+) open-drain topology and two with a much larger transmit only transfer rate of up to 5 Mbits/s using the new Ultra Fast-mode (UFm) bus with push-pull topology. Each channel has a generous 4352 byte data buffer which makes the PCU9669 the ideal companion to any CPU that needs to transmit and receive large amounts of serial data with minimal interruptions. The PCU9669 is a 8-bit parallel-bus to I2C-bus protocol converter. It can be configured to communicate with up to 64 slaves in one serial sequence with no intervention from the CPU. The controller also has a sequence loop control feature that allows it to automatically retransmit a stored sequence. Its onboard oscillator and PLL allow the controller to generate the clocks for the I2C-bus and for the interval timer used in sequence looping. This feature greatly reduces CPU overhead when data refresh is required in fault tolerant applications. An external trigger input allows data synchronization with external events. The trigger signal controls the rate at which a stored sequence is re-transmitted over the I2C-bus. E...
