PCAL9538ABSHP

The PCAL9538ABSHP is an 8-bit Input/output (GPIO) Expander with interrupt and reset for I?C-bus/SMBus applications. The NXP I/O expander provides a simple solution when additional I/Os are needed while keeping interconnections to a minimum. In addition to providing a flexible set of GPIOs, the wide VDD range of 1.65 to 5.5V allows the PCAL9538A to interface with next-generation microprocessors and microcontrollers where supply levels are dropping down to conserve power. The expander contains the PCA9538A register set of four 8-bit configuration, input, output and polarity inversion registers and additionally, it has Agile I/O, which are additional features specifically designed to enhance the I/O. The additional features includes programmable output drive strength, latchable inputs, programmable pull-up/pull-down resistors, maskable interrupt, interrupt status register, programmable open-drain or push-pull outputs.
