SMBUS/I2C Register Control Interface

If MODE = L2 (SMBus / I2C secondary control mode), the TDP20MB421 is configured for best signal integrity through a standard I2C or SMBus interface operates up to 400kHz. Pin strap settings determines the secondary address of the TDP20MB421 on the ADDR and MODE pins. Table 6-4 provides the eight possible secondary addresses (7-bit) for each channel banks of the device. In SMBus and I2C modes, the SCL and SDA pins connect to a 3.3V supply through a pullup resistor. The value of the resistor depends on the total bus capacitance. 4.7kΩ is a good first approximation for a bus capacitance of 10pF.

The TDP20MB421 has two types of registers:

  • Shared Registers: These registers are accessible at any time and are used for device-level configuration, status read back, control, and to read the device ID information.
  • Channel Registers: These registers control and configure specific features for each channel. All channels have the same register set and can be configured independently or as a group through broadcast writes to Bank 0 or 1.

The TDP20MB421 features two banks of channels, Bank 0 (Channels 2-3) and Bank 1 (Channels 0-1), each feature a separate register set and require a unique SMBus secondary address.
