The SC16IS762IBS-T is an IC component designed by NXP Semiconductors. It is a single-channel bridge IC that enables easy integration of UART (Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter) serial peripherals to an I²C-bus/UART interface. Here is an overview and key features of the SC16IS762IBS-T:
1. UART to I²C-bus interface: The SC16IS762IBS-T acts as a bridge between UART serial peripherals and an I²C-bus. It supports both UART and I²C-bus interfaces, allowing seamless communication between devices using these protocols.
2. Wide range of baud rates: It supports a wide range of baud rates, from 50 bps (bits per second) up to 5 Mbps (mega bits per second), allowing for flexible and efficient data transfer between devices.
3. Dual-channel support: The SC16IS762IBS-T has two additional channels which can independently operate as either UARTs or I²C-bus interfaces. This enables multiple serial peripherals to be connected to a single IC, reducing the overall component count.
4. I²C-bus master/slave emulation: It can function as an I²C-bus master or slave device, allowing it to emulate I²C-bus protocols. This feature is particularly useful in systems where I²C-bus is the primary communication protocol
