LM8328 Overview
The LM8328 GenI/O - Expander and Keypad Controller is a dedicated device to unburden a host processor from scanning a matrix-addressed keypad and to provide flexible and general purpose, host programmable input/output functions. Three independent PWM timer outputs are provided for dynamic LED brightness modulation. It municates with a host processor through an I2C-patible ACCESS.bus serial interface.
