You just found the perfect I2C sensor, and you want to wire up two or three or more of them to your Arduino when you realize "Uh oh, this chip has a fixed I2C address, and from what I know about I2C, you cannot have two devices with the same address on the same SDA/SCL pins!" Are you out of luck? You would be, if you didn't have this ultra-coolTCA9548A 1-to-8 I2C multiplexer!
Finally, a way to get up to 8 same-address I2C devices hooked up to one microcontroller - this multiplexer acts as a gatekeeper, shuttling the commands to the selected set of I2C pins with your command.
Using it is fairly straight-forward: the multiplexer itself is on I2C address 0x70 (but can be adjusted from 0x70 to 0x77) and you simply write a single byte with the desired multiplexed output number to that port, and bam - any future I2C packets will get sent to that port. In theory, you could have 8 of these multiplexers on each of 0x70-0x77 addresses in order to control 64 of the same-I2C-addressed-part.
Some header is required and once soldered in you can plug it into a solderless-breadboard. The chip itself is 3V and 5V compliant so you can use it with any logic level.

Careful, careful, no return policy once ordered, Monitor is very fragile
I order 15.6 inch monitor with built in stand for my Raspberry PI. The issue with built in stand, is that it is so fragile that a slight movement in cables the monitor will move and it can topple breaking the LCD panel. The stand does not help monitor to be in one place, not suitable for regular use.
Be careful before ordering this product as as the company does not accept returns and has not return policy, be careful careful careful.
This is Delhi based company which is importing items from China and selling without any return policy.
