Figure 5 shows the voltage characteristics of the pass gate
transistors (note that the graph was generated using the data
specified in the DC Characteristics section of this datasheet). In
order for the PCA9543 to act as a voltage translator, the V
voltage should be equal to, or lower than the lowest bus voltage. For
example, if the main bus was running at 5 V, and the downstream
buses were 3.3 V and 2.7 V, then V
2.7 V to effectively clamp the downstream bus voltages. Looking at
Figure 5, we see that V
PCA9543 supply voltage is 3.5 V or lower so the PCA9543 supply
voltage could be set to 3.3 V. Pull-up resistors can then be used to
bring the bus voltages to their appropriate levels (see Figure 12).
