The PCA9548APWR is a 8-channel I²C Switch with reset. The system master can reset the PCA9548A in the event of a timeout or other improper operation by asserting a low in the RESET input. Similarly, the power-on reset deselects all channels and initializes the I²C/SMBus state machine. Asserting RESET causes the same reset/initialization to occur without powering down the part. The pass gates of the switches are constructed so that the VCC pin can be used to limit the maximum high voltage, which is passed by the PCA9548A. This allows the use of different bus voltages on each pair, so that 1.8 or 2.5 or 3.3V parts can communicate with 5V parts, without any additional protection. External pull-up resistors pull the bus up to the desired voltage level for each channel. All I/O pins are 5V tolerant.
