PCA9670
Remote 8-bit I/O expander for Fm+ I2C-bus with reset
Rev. 3 — 30 May 2013
Product data sheet
1. General description
The PCA9670 provides general-purpose remote I/O expansion via the two-wire bidirectional I2C-bus (serial clock (SCL), serial data (SDA)).
The devices consist of eight quasi-bidirectional ports, 1 MHz 30 mA drive I2C-bus interface, three hardware address inputs and a reset input operating between 2.3 V and 5.5 V. 1 MHz I2C-bus Fast-mode Plus (Fm+) can support PWM dimming of LEDs, and higher I2C-bus drive 30 mA allows more devices to be on the bus without the need for bus buffers. The quasi-bidirectional port can be independently assigned as an input to monitor interrupt status or keypads, or as an output to activate indicator devices such as LEDs.
