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 FEATURES
● 1.2V to 3.6V Low Operating Voltage with Dual Independent I/O Rails (VCC1, VCC2) Enable Direct Level Shifting Between I/O Banks and Host Controller 5.5V Tolerant I/Os, Up to 15mA Output Sink on All I/Os (No Total Sink Current Limit) Integrated LED Driver for Enhanced Lighting Intensity Control (256-step PWM) Blink Control (224 On/Off values) Breathing Control (224 Fade In/Out values) On-Chip Keypad Scanning Engine Support Up to 8x8 Matrix (64 Keys) Configurable Input Debouncer 8/16 Channels of True Bi-directional Style I/O Programmable Pull-up/Pull-down Push/Pull or Open-dr...
