Semtech Corporation SX1508B

The SX1508B and SX1509B are complete ultra low voltage General Purpose parallel Input/Output (GPIO) expanders ideal for low power handheld battery powered equipment. This family of GPIOs comes in 8-, 16-channel configuration and allows easy serial 2 expansion of I/O through a standard 400kHz I C interface. These devices can also act as a level shifter to connect a microcontroller running at one voltage level to a component running at a different voltage level, thus eliminating the need for extra level translating circuits.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

GPIO devices can provide additional control and monitoring when the microcontroller or chipset has insufficient I/O ports, or in systems where serial communication and control from a remote location is advantageous. The core is operating as low as 1.425V while the dual I/O banks can operate between 1.2V and 3.6V independent of the core voltage and each other (5.5V tolerant). KEY PRODUCT
