TCA4307DGKR

Texas Instruments · Signal Buffers, Repeaters, Splitters · MSOP-8

TCA4307DGKR from Texas Instruments, in a MSOP-8. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 EN input Active-high chip enable. When low, the device enters low-current mode, disables rise-time accelerators and pre-charge, drives READY low, and isolates SDAIN/SCLIN from SDAOUT/SCLOUT. Tie to VCC for normal operation if not used. VIH >= 0.7VCC, VIL <= 0.3VCC.
2 SCLOUT bidirectional Serial clock output to the card-side I2C bus. Open-drain, requires a pull-up resistor. Isolated from SCLIN until EN is high and start-up is complete.
3 SCLIN bidirectional Serial clock input from the backplane-side I2C bus. Open-drain, requires a pull-up resistor. Pre-charged to 1 V during insertion to minimize glitching.
4 GND power_in Device ground reference.
5 READY output Open-drain connection flag / rise-time accelerator control. Low when EN is low or during start-up; goes high when EN is high, start-up is complete, and the two bus sides are connected. Connect a ~10 kOhm pull-up to VCC. IOL = 3 mA, VOL <= 0.4 V.
6 SDAIN bidirectional Serial data input from the backplane-side I2C bus. Open-drain, requires a pull-up resistor. Pre-charged to 1 V during live insertion.
7 SDAOUT bidirectional Serial data output to the card-side I2C bus. Open-drain, requires a pull-up resistor. Isolated from SDAIN until EN is high and start-up is complete.
8 VCC power_in Main input supply from the backplane, 2.3 V to 5.5 V. Sets the supply voltage for the backplane-side I2C devices and the internal pull-ups from SDAOUT/SCLOUT. Place a 0.1 uF bypass capacitor close to this pin.
