This 8-bit I/O expander for the two-line bidirectional bus (I2C) is designed for 2.3-V to 5.5-V VCC operation. It provides general-purpose remote I/O expansion for most microcontroller families via the I2C interface [serial clock (SCL), serial data (SDA)].
The PCA9534PW consists of one 8-bit Configuration (input or output selection), Input Port, Output Port, and Polarity Inversion (active high or active low) register. 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. All registers can be read by the system master.
The system master can reset the PCA9534PW in the event of a timeout or other improper operation by utilizing the power-on reset feature, which puts the registers in their default state and initializes the I2C/SMBus state machine.
The PCA9534PW open-drain interrupt (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 PCA9534PW can remain a simple slave device.
The device's outputs (latched) have high-current drive capability for directly driving LEDs. It has low current consumption.
Three hardware pins (A0, A1, and A2) are used to program and vary the fixed I2C address and allow up to eight devices to share the same I2C bus or SMBus.
The PCA9534PW is pin-to-pin and I2C address compatible with the PCF8574. However, software changes are required due to the enhancements in the PCA9534PW over the PCF8574.
The PCA9534PW is a low-power version of the PCA9554. The only difference between the PCA9534PW and PCA9554 is that the PCA9534PW eliminates an internal I/O pullup resistor, which dramatically reduces power consumption in the standby mode when the I/Os are held low.
The PCA9534A and PCA9534PW are identical, except for their fixed I2C address. This allows for up to 16 of these devices (8 of each) on the same I2C bus.
