The Technobox P/N 3560 Interface ECM module provides 4 I2C channels.
The PCA9564 IC converts parallel data to I2C serial communication.
The LTC1694 I2C accelerator IC decreases the rise time of the passively pulled up I2C bus allowing for greater
capacitive loading or higher bus speeds.
Each channel is comprised of I2C signals SCL, SDA and two Grounds.
The LTC1694 active pull up device on the SDA and SCL signals, provides better rise times and better signal drive
with variable load capacitance. The trace in red shows how the LTC1694 detects the rising edge of the I2C signal
and turns on a current source boosting drive and reducing rise time. Note that since the I2C bus is actively pulled
down, the fall times are about the same with or without the LTC1694.

PCA9564 Signals. Some signals from the carrier card are common to all four PCA9564s, these include data0..7,
write, read, address0, address1 and reset. Unique to each PCA9564 are the chip enable and interrupt lines.
