I2CIO01A - I2C IO Expander

I2CIO01A

Overview

The I2CIO01 module is a GPIO expander designed for operation in the range of 1.65 to 5.5 V. It provides general-purpose remote I/O expansion via the I²C interface. The module comprises two 8-bit Configurable, Input Ports, Output Port, and Polarity Inversion registers.

Features

  • Operating Voltage: 1.65 to 5.5 V
  • Interfaces: I²C, up to 400 kHz
  • GPIO Ports: 16-bit expansion using either TCA6416A or TCA9535 IC
  • Address Selection:
    • TCA6416A: 2 I2C addresses, includes a reset pin
    • TCA9535: 4 I2C addresses
  • Interrupt Capabilities: Both ICs support interrupt output
  • Package Dimensions: 40.13 x 40.13 x 16 mm
