Clare's Optically Isolated I2C Bus Repeater is the industry's first integrated optical solution for I2C bus design that:
- Minimizes PC board space usage
- Reduces parts count for this function
Unlike magnetically isolated digital isolator ICs, this optical solution:
- Needs no internal clocking, which is a primary source of EMI/RFI interference
- Supports direct static-state buffering without refresh clocks
The CPC5902 features excellent reliability and very long operational life. Contact Clare for long-term reliability information.
The internal isolation barrier is tested above 6kV peak in the same way that other robust optical devices from Clare have been tested for the past 25 years.
