PCA9553 - 4-bit I2C LED driver

Datasheet Summary

Description

The PCA9553 LED blinker blinks LEDs in I2C-bus and SMBus applications where it is necessary to limit bus traffic or free up the I2C-bus master's (MCU, MPU, DSP, chip set, etc.) timer.

The uniqueness of this device is the internal oscillator with two programmable blink rates.

Features

  • I 4 LED drivers (on, off, flashing at a programmable rate) I 2 selectable, fully programmable blink rates (frequency and duty cycle) between 0.172 Hz and 44 Hz (5.82 seconds and 0.023 seconds) I Input/outputs not used as LED drivers can be used as regular GPIOs I Internal oscillator requires no external components I I2C-bus interface logic compatible with SMBus I Internal power-on reset I Noise filter on SCL/SDA inputs I 4 open-drain outputs directly drive LEDs to 25 mA I Controlled edge rates to.

PCA9553 4-bit I2C-bus LED driver with programmable blink rates Rev. 06 — 29 December 2008 Product data sheet 1. General description The PCA9553 LED blinker blinks LEDs in I2C-bus and SMBus applications where it is necessary to limit bus traffic or free up the I2C-bus master's (MCU, MPU, DSP, chip set, etc.) timer. The uniqueness of this device is the internal oscillator with two programmable blink rates. To blink LEDs using normal I/O expanders like the PCF8574 or PCA9554, the bus master must send repeated commands to turn the LED on and off. This greatly increases the amount of traffic on the I2C-bus and uses up one of the master's timers. The PCA9553 LED blinker instead requires only the initial set-up command to program BLINK RATE 1 and BLINK RATE 2 (i.e.
