PI6ULS5V9515AUE

Signal Buffers, Repeaters, Splitters Overview

The PI6ULS5V9515AUEX is a single-channel I2C bus and SMBus repeater manufactured by Diodes Incorporated. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2.3 V to 3.6 V, with a typical low-level supply current of 1.7 mA at 3.6 V. The device supports data rates up to 400 kHz and features an active HIGH enable input (pin 5) to control signal propagation between Port 0 and Port 1. Input/output capacitance is specified at 6 pF. It is available in an 8-pin MSOP package.

Signal Buffers, Repeaters, Splitters Feature Summary

• Provides bidirectional signal buffering for I2C and SMBus protocols
• Includes an active HIGH enable pin to isolate or connect bus segments
• Supports standard mode operation up to 400 kHz
• Operates on a single supply voltage ranging from 2.3 V to 3.6 V

Signal Buffers, Repeaters, Splitters Applications

• Extending I2C bus distance in embedded systems
• Isolating bus segments to prevent contention
• Adding multiple devices to a single I2C bus topology

Signal Buffers, Repeaters, Splitters Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official documentation to confirm the package type and reel configuration. The 'U' suffix indicates the MSOP-8 package, while 'ZE' denotes TDFN. Confirm RoHS 3 compliance status directly with the supplier or datasheet revision history before procurement.

Signal Buffers, Repeaters, Splitters Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-channel buffer is required for I2C or SMBus networks operating between 2.3 V and 3.6 V. Ensure the application requires an active HIGH enable control signal. Verify that the 400 kHz speed capability meets the system timing requirements and that the 6 pF input capacitance is compatible with the connected loads.
