General description

The PCA9575 is a CMOS device that provides 16 bits of General Purpose parallel Input/Output (GPIO) expansion in low voltage processor and handheld battery powered mobile applications and was developed to enhance the NXP family of I2C-bus I/O expanders. The improvements include lower supply current, lower operating voltage of 1.1 V to 3.6 V, separate supply rails to allow voltage level translation anywhere between 1.1 V and 3.6 V, 400 kHz clock frequency, and smaller packaging. Any of the 16 I/O ports can be configured as an input or output independent of each other and default on start-up to inputs.

PCA9575属于集成电路（IC） > I/O 扩展器。恩智浦半导体公司制造生产的PCA9575I/O 扩展器该系列器件可与微控制器、微处理器或类似器件结合使用，目的是增加可用于连接外设的信号连接数量。典型的工作概念涉及使用串行通信，只需主机设备上的几根 I/O 线，即可读/写扩展器设备上的许多输入/输出引脚的状态。该技术的通信速度不佳，但连通性较高，最适合快速响应不是很关键的应用，例如许多人机界面应用。
