The PCA9535 and PCA9535C are 24-pin CMOS DEVICES that provide 16 bits of GeneralPurpose parallel Input/Output (GPIO) expansion for I2C-bus/SMBus applications and wasdeveloped to enhance the NXP Semiconductors family of I2C-bus I/O expanders. Theimprovements include higher drive capability, 5 V I/O tolerance, lower supply current,individual I/O configuration, and smaller packaging. I/O expanders provide a simplesolution when additional I/O is needed for ACPI power switches, sensors, push buttons,LEDs, fans, etc.
The PCA9541 is a 2-to-1 I2C-bus master selector designed for high reliability dual masterI2C-bus applications where system operation is required, even when one master fails orthe controller card is removed for maintenance. The two masters (for example, primaryand back-up) are located on separate I2C-buses that connect to the same downstreamI2C-bus slave DEVICES. I2C-bus commands are sent by either I2C-bus master and are usedto select one master at a time. Either master at any time can gain control of the slaveDEVICES if the other master is disabled or removed from the system. The failed master isisolated from the system and will not affect communication between the on-line masterand the slave DEVICES on the downstream I2C-bus.
The PCA9670 provides general purpose remote I/O expansion for most microcontrollerfamilies via the two-line bidirectional bus (I2C-bus) and is a part of the Fast-mode Plusfamily.The PCA9670 is a drop-in upgrade for the PCF8574 providing higher Fast-mode Plus(Fm+) I2C-bus speeds (1 MHz versus 400 kHz) so that the output can support PWMdimming of LEDs, higher I2C-bus drive (30 mA versus 3 mA) so that many more DEVICEScan be on the bus without the need for bus buffers, higher total package sink capacity(200 mA versus 100 mA) that supports having all 25 mA LEDs on at the same time andmore device addresses (64 versus 8) are available to allow many more DEVICES on the buswithout address conflicts.
The PCA9547 is an octal bidirectional translating multiplexer controlled by the I2C-bus.The SCL/SDA upstream pair fans out to eight downstream pairs, or channels. Only oneSCx/SDx channel can be selected at a time, determined by the contents of theprogrammable control register. The device powers up with Channel 0 connected, allowingimmediate communication between the master and downstream DEVICES on that channel.

The TL2575 and TL2575HV represent superior alternatives to popular three-terminal linear regulators. Due totheir high efficiency, the DEVICES significantly reduce the size of the heatsink and, in many cases, no heatsink isrequired. Optimized for use with standard series of inductors available from several different manufacturers, theTL2575 and TL2575HV greatly simplify the design of switch-mode power supplies by requiring a minimaladdition of only four to six external components for operation.
Although Stellaris microcontrollers have generous internal SRAM capabilities, certain applicationsmay have data storage requirements that exceed the 8 KB limit of the Stellaris LM3S8xx seriesDEVICES. Since microcontrollers do not have an external parallel data-bus, serial memory optionsmust be considered. Until recently, the ubiquitous serial EEPROM/flash device was the only serialmemory solution. The major limitations of EEPROM and flash technology are slow write speed, slowerase times, and limited write/erase endurance.Recently, serial SRAM DEVICES have become available as a solution for high-speed dataapplications. The N256S08xxHDA series of DEVICES, from AMI Semiconductor, offer 32 K x 8 bits oflow-power data storage, a fast Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) serial bus, and unlimited write cycles.The parts are available in 8-pin SOIC and compact TSSOP packages.
