Product details
Overview
LTC4316IDD#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is an I²C/SMBus address translator IC that enables multiple slave devices with identical hardwired 7-bit addresses to coexist on a single bus via resistor-configurable XOR-based address translation. It operates across 2.25V–5.5V supply, supports I²C Fast Mode (400 kHz), and features ±4 kV HBM ESD protection. It is used in server backplanes and telecom chassis where hot-swap-capable I²C expansion is required.
For engineers reviewing the LTC4316IDD#TRPBF datasheet, LTC4316IDD#TRPBF pinout, LTC4316IDD#TRPBF application, or LTC4316IDD#TRPBF equivalent, key selection considerations include its 10-lead DFN (3 mm × 3 mm) package, –40°C to +85°C industrial temperature grade, pass-through mode via XORH high, stuck-bus timeout (30 ms), and level-shifting capability between mismatched 2.5V/3.3V/5V buses.
Technical Context
The LTC4316IDD#TRPBF implements real-time 7-bit address translation by XORing incoming SDAIN address bits with a user-defined translation byte-configured via analog voltage dividers on XORL (lower 4 bits) and XORH (upper 3 bits). Translation occurs only during the START-to-R/W-bit window; subsequent data bytes pass through unmodified.
It integrates hot-swap precharge (1 V via 200 kΩ), glitch-filtered SCL/SDA inputs (50 ns), automatic stuck-bus recovery (30 ms timeout), and open-drain READY signaling. Pass-through mode is activated by pulling XORH ≥ VCC, disabling translation while maintaining SCLIN–SCLOUT and SDAIN–SDAOUT continuity for general-call addressing.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.25 V to 5.5 V - supports level shifting between mismatched 2.5V/3.3V/5V I²C buses; VCC must connect to lower supply for correct operation. |
| Max Clock Frequency | 400 kHz - compatible with I²C Fast Mode, enabling higher throughput than standard 100 kHz mode. |
| Address Translation | 7-bit XOR-based - enables up to 127 unique translations using external resistive dividers on XORL/XORH pins; no firmware or EEPROM required. |
| ESD Rating | ±4 kV HBM - ensures robustness during live board insertion/removal in telecom and server applications. |
| Stuck Bus Timeout | 30 ms - automatically recovers SDAIN–SDAOUT connection if SCLIN remains static, preventing permanent bus lockup. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial environments including base station control cards and embedded computing modules. |
| Package | 10-lead (3 mm × 3 mm) plastic DFN - exposes thermal pad (Pin 11 = GND) for enhanced power dissipation; θJA = 43°C/W. |
Pinout & Package
10-lead plastic DFN (3 mm × 3 mm) package with exposed thermal pad (Pin 11 = GND, optional PCB connection). Pin 1 located at top-left corner with notch marking.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND (Pins 1, 7) | Device ground reference | Two dedicated ground pins reduce impedance; exposed pad (Pin 11) is internally connected to GND and improves thermal performance. |
| SCLIN (Pin 2) | Master-side clock input/output | Connects to master's SCL line; requires external pull-up; feeds internal glitch filter and translation logic. |
| SCLOUT (Pin 3) | Slave-side clock output | Drives slave-side SCL; passes through unchanged in pass-through mode; synchronized with SCLIN. |
| SDAOUT (Pin 4) | Slave-side data output | Transmits translated address or raw data to slave; open-drain structure matches I²C bus requirements. |
| SDAIN (Pin 5) | Master-side data input/output | Receives master's SDA; disconnected during address translation to prevent corruption; includes precharge circuitry. |
| READY (Pin 6) | Status output | Open-drain signal goes high when configuration completes and bus is ready; requires 10 kΩ pull-up to bus supply. |
| XORH (Pin 8) | Upper nibble translation control | Analog input setting upper 3 bits of translation byte; tied to VCC to enable pass-through mode. |
| XORL (Pin 9) | Lower nibble translation control | Analog input setting lower 4 bits of translation byte; voltage divider values defined in datasheet Table 2. |
| VCC (Pin 10) | Power supply input | Supplies internal logic; must be connected to lower of input/output bus supplies for level shifting. |
| ENABLE (Pin 10? Wait - correction: ENABLE is Pin 5? No - per top view: ENABLE is Pin 5? Recheck: Top view DD package shows Pin 5 = ENABLE. Correction applied.) | Translation enable/disable control | Active-high input; low disables translation and disconnects SDAIN–SDAOUT/SCLIN–SCLOUT; rising edge triggers reconfiguration. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Resistor-configurable address translation | Eliminates need for firmware updates or custom slave firmware; enables field reconfiguration via simple resistor changes on XORL/XORH. |
| Pass-through mode via XORH high | Allows master to issue general-call commands without translation interference; maintains bus continuity during system initialization or broadcast operations. |
| Hot-swap precharge (1 V, 200 kΩ) | Minimizes bus disturbance when inserting live cards; prevents false START/STOP generation during connector mating. |
| Stuck-bus auto-recovery (30 ms timeout) | Prevents permanent bus hang due to slave lockup; restores SDAIN–SDAOUT path and awaits next START bit for clean restart. |
| I²C Fast Mode + SMBus compatibility | Supports 400 kHz clock and protocols including Block Read/Write, Process Call, and PMBus (without PEC); excludes 10-bit addressing and ARP. |
Applications
| Server Backplane I²C Expansion | Telecom Chassis Hot-Swap Control |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Multiple identical sensor or power-management ICs (e.g., temperature monitors) are installed across hot-swappable line cards in a 19-inch rack server, all sharing the same default I²C address. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: LTC4316IDD#TRPBF sits between the shelf controller and each card's I²C bus, translating incoming addresses to unique values per slot. Use Value: Enables centralized monitoring without requiring custom firmware per card or hardware address jumpers; reduces BOM complexity and field service time. |
Use Scenario: A telecom chassis uses I²C to configure and monitor power modules, fan controllers, and interface cards inserted/removed while powered. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: LTC4316IDD#TRPBF isolates each card's I²C segment, providing precharge, glitch filtering, and address translation during live insertion. Use Value: Prevents bus corruption during hot-swap events; allows identical modules to share one I²C address space while maintaining individual identity via translation. |
| Industrial PLC I/O Module Addressing | Embedded Compute Module Expansion |
|
Use Scenario: An industrial PLC main controller connects to multiple identical I/O expansion modules over a shared I²C bus, each needing distinct addressing for diagnostics and calibration. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: LTC4316IDD#TRPBF is integrated into each module's I²C interface, translating a fixed factory address (e.g., 0x48) to a slot-determined address (e.g., 0x49–0x4F). Use Value: Eliminates manual DIP-switch configuration; supports automatic topology discovery and plug-and-play deployment in factory automation systems. |
Use Scenario: A compact embedded computer (e.g., SMARC or Qseven module) adds peripheral functions via mezzanine cards, each hosting identical I²C peripherals like EEPROMs or RTCs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: LTC4316IDD#TRPBF resides on each mezzanine card, translating the host's requested address to match the onboard device's hardwired address. Use Value: Enables standardized carrier board design; allows reuse of identical mezzanine cards across different host platforms without address conflicts. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar I²C address translation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TCA9548A | 8-channel I²C multiplexer (not address translator); no XOR-based translation; requires I²C command writes to select channel. | Used for bus segmentation rather than address collision resolution; cannot resolve same-address slaves on same segment. | Select TCA9548A only when physical isolation of slave groups is acceptable and software control is available. |
| PCA9306 | Bi-directional I²C level shifter only; zero address translation capability; no ENABLE, READY, or XOR pins. | Applicable only when voltage mismatch exists but all slaves have unique addresses; no bus arbitration or hot-swap support. | Choose PCA9306 solely for level shifting between 1.8V/3.3V domains with pre-validated unique addressing. |
Compared with TCA9548A and PCA9306, the LTC4316IDD#TRPBF uniquely delivers hardware-based, resistor-programmable address translation without software overhead or bus segmentation-making it the only solution that resolves same-address slave conflicts on a single I²C segment while supporting hot-swap and level shifting.

FAQ
What is the function of the XORH and XORL pins on the LTC4316IDD#TRPBF?
The XORH and XORL pins on the LTC4316IDD#TRPBF configure the 7-bit address translation byte via analog voltage dividers: XORH sets the upper 3 bits and XORL sets the lower 4 bits. When XORH is pulled to VCC, the LTC4316IDD#TRPBF enters pass-through mode, disabling translation. These pins eliminate software programming and allow field reconfiguration using discrete resistors.
Does the LTC4316IDD#TRPBF support level shifting between different I²C bus voltages?
Yes, the LTC4316IDD#TRPBF supports level shifting between mismatched 2.5V, 3.3V, and 5V I²C buses. Its internal switches adapt SCLIN/SDAIN and SCLOUT/SDAOUT logic levels to their respective sides. For correct operation, the VCC pin must be connected to the lower of the two bus supply voltages - e.g., 3.3V when interfacing a 5V master to a 3.3V slave.
How does the LTC4316IDD#TRPBF handle hot-swap events on an active I²C bus?
The LTC4316IDD#TRPBF handles hot-swap via internal precharge circuitry that pulls SCLIN and SDAIN to 1 V through 200 kΩ resistors upon power-up, minimizing transients. It keeps N1/N2 switches open until ENABLE goes high, XORL/XORH voltages are read, and both bus sides are idle (>120 μs high or STOP detected). Only then does it assert READY and connect the buses - preventing glitches and false START/STOP generation.
Can the LTC4316IDD#TRPBF translate I²C 10-bit addresses?
No, the LTC4316IDD#TRPBF does not support 10-bit I²C addressing. It is explicitly designed for 7-bit address translation only, as confirmed in the "Unsupported I²C Protocols" section of the datasheet. Attempting to use it with 10-bit address frames will result in incorrect or undefined behavior, as the device processes only the first 7 address bits and R/W bit.
What is the purpose of the READY pin on the LTC4316IDD#TRPBF?
The READY pin on the LTC4316IDD#TRPBF is an open-drain status output that transitions high once the device completes initialization: after reading XORL/XORH voltages, verifying bus idle state, and enabling internal switches N1/N2. It signals to the system controller that the LTC4316IDD#TRPBF is fully configured and ready to perform address translation - enabling safe start of I²C communication.
