MAX7358 Maxim, MAX7358 Datasheet - Page 15

• Manufacturer Part Number: MAX7358
• Description: The MAX7356/MAX7357/MAX7358 8-channel I²C switches/multiplexers expand the main I²C bus to any combination of 8 extended I²C buses
• Manufacturer: Maxim

tion exists on that channel. If the interrupt feature is
selected (B0 of the configuration register is 1), howev-
er, the interrupt signal, RST/INT, deasserts (goes to
high) once this bus lock-up indication register is read.
If desired, setting bit B3 of the configuration register to
1 can latch the lock-up data. When B3 is set, the lock-
up bits remain set (even if a channel becomes
“unstuck”) until the lock-up indication register is read
by the master. Lock-up conditions on unconnected aux-
iliary buses are also detected. When this happens, oper-
ation is the same as when lock-ups are detected on
connected buses, except that, if desired, bus connec-
tions may be maintained as long as any detected lock-
ups are present only on unconnected channels. This
option is selected using bit B4 of the configuration regis-
ter. (Figure 9)

The I
tored and stored into the two-byte traffic prior to lock-up
register. The first two bytes of information after a START
are stored in this register. This I
tion is frozen upon a bus lock-up detection. A host can
read these two bytes of traffic information upon the
reception of an interrupt signal. The contents of the traf-
fic prior to lock-up register is released and refreshed
once it is read.
The traffic prior to lock-up register can be used to iden-
tify the device address as well as the following byte
involved in a bus lock-up.
When troubleshooting an I
used to capture traffic leading to the problem. The con-
tents of the traffic prior to the bus fault can usually be
determined by identifying a device address, a register
address, or a part of this data.
Table 7 shows contents of the traffic prior to the lock-up
register corresponding to a lock-up situation as demon-
strated by Figure 10.
