Proper switching IC used for SCL/SDA lines #9

V10 uses a PCA logic level shifter to "switch" on/off the SCL/SDA lines. This is useful to isolate the testbed micro from the product entirely (to avoid accidentally powering up the product and/or being able to completely reset I2C)

It would be best to do this switching of the lines with latest method of using our 1:1 x4 mux IC. (74LVC4066)

not added to design. I want to preserve the interrupt capabilities. We can add a switch and/or level translation to the daughter baord.
