Introduction
The TCA9548A I2C Multiplexer Module is a device made around
TCA9548A chip that simplifies using multiple I2C devices with one
microcontroller. It is an eight-channel (bidirectional) I2C multiplexer which
allows eight separate I2C devices to be controlled by a single host on single
I2C bus.
The TCA9548A chip has eight bidirectional translating switches that can be
controlled through the I2C bus. The module can connect several different
devices with a single microcontroller.
If some of the devices connected to the same channel have same I2C
address, the issue can be solved by simply connecting to other channel, if
the device does not have a configurable I2C address DIP switch or jumper.
