General description

The PCAL6408A is an 8-bit general-purpose I/O expander that provides remote I/O

expansion for most microcontroller families via the I2C-bus interface.

NXP I/O expanders provide a simple solution when additional I/Os are needed while

keeping interconnections to a minimum, for example, in battery-powered mobile

applications for interfacing to sensors, push buttons, keypad, etc. In addition to providing

a flexible set of GPIOs, it simplifies interconnection of a processor running at one voltage

level to I/O devices operating at a different (usually higher) voltage level. The PCAL6408A

has built-in level shifting feature that makes these devices extremely flexible in mixed

signal environments where communication between incompatible I/O voltages is required.

Its wide VDD range of 1.65 V to 5.5 V on the dual power rail allows seamless

communications with next-generation low voltage microprocessors and microcontrollers

on the interface side (SDA/SCL) and peripherals at a higher voltage on the port side.

There are two supply voltages for PCAL6408A: VDD(I2C-bus) and VDD(P). VDD(I2C-bus)

provides the supply voltage for the interface at the master side (for example, a

microcontroller) and the VDD(P) provides the supply for core circuits and Port P. The

bidirectional voltage level translation in the PCAL6408A is provided through VDD(I2C-bus).

VDD(I2C-bus) should be connected to the VDD of the external SCL/SDA lines. This indicates

the VDD level of the I2C-bus to the PCAL6408A, while the voltage level on Port P of the

PCAL6408A is determined by the VDD(P).

The PCAL6408A contains the PCA6408A register set of 8-bit Configuration, Input, Output,

and Polarity Inversion registers and additionally, the PCAL6408A has Agile I/O, which are

additional features specifically designed to enhance the I/O. These additional features

are: programmable output drive strength, latchable inputs, programmable

pull-up/pull-down resistors, maskable interrupt, interrupt status register, programmable

open-drain or push-pull outputs. The PCAL6408A is a pin-to-pin replacement to the

PCA6408A, however, the PCAL6408A powers up with all I/O interrupts masked. This

mask default allows for a board bring-up free of spurious interrupts at power-up.

At power-on, the I/Os are configured as inputs. However, the system master can enable

the I/Os as either inputs or outputs by writing to the I/O configuration bits. The data for

each input or output is kept in the corresponding input or output register. The polarity of

the Input Port register can be inverted with the Polarity Inversion register, saving external

logic gates. Programmable pull-up and pull-down resistors eliminate the need for discrete

components.

The system master can reset the PCAL6408A in the event of a time-out or other improper

operation by asserting a LOW in the RESET input. The power-on reset puts the registers

in their default state and initializes the I2C-bus/SMBus state machine. The RESET pin

causes the same reset/initialization to occur without de-powering the part.

The PCAL6408A open-drain interrupt (INT) output is activated when any input state differs

from its corresponding Input Port register state and is used to indicate to the system

master that an input state has changed.

INT can be connected to the interrupt input of a microcontroller. By sending an interrupt

signal on this line, the remote I/O can inform the microcontroller if there is incoming data

on its ports without having to communicate via the I2C-bus. Thus, the PCAL6408A can

remain a simple slave device. The input latch feature holds or latches the input pin state

and keeps the logic values that created the interrupt until the master can service the

interrupt. This minimizes the host’s interrupt service response for fast moving inputs.

The device Port P outputs have 25 mA sink capabilities for directly driving LEDs while

consuming low device current.

One hardware pin (ADDR) can be used to program and vary the fixed I2C-bus address

and allow up to two devices to share the same I2C-bus or SMBus.
