We have an application where we are using pca9615 for i2c->di2c->i2c. We are however experiencing problems where after some time the pca9615 will draw a lot of current, this is likely happening at both ends, and a failure of one or both of the pca9615s is the result.
We have several independent buses using this configuration in our design, and some never fail, the i2c slaves are different, however on the different busses.
