Fastest and easiest way to extend the range of your I2C communication bus Uses NXP’s PCA9615 IC Converts the two default I2C signals into four differential signals The differential signals are sent over an Ethernet cable Allows the I2C signals to reach distances of up to 100ft The SparkFun Differential I2C Breakout Board - PCA9615 (Qwiic) is the fastest and easiest way to extend the range of your I2C communication bus. The breakout uses NXP’s PCA9615 IC, which converts the two default I2C signals into four differential signals, two for SCL and two for SDA. The differential signals are sent over an Ethernet cable, which attaches to the breakout through the on-board RJ-45 connectors The differential signaling allows the I2C signals to reach distances of up to 100ft. while still maintaining their signal integrity! To make it even easier to get your readings, all communication is enacted exclusively via I2C, utilizing our handy Qwiic system so no soldering is required to connect it to the rest of your system. However, we still have broken out 0.1"-spaced pins in case you prefer to use a breadboard.
