I2C Port Expander 16-Pin TQFN EP

The MAX7323 2-wire serial-interfaced peripheral features eight I/O ports. Four ports are push-pull outputs and the other four are open-drain I/O ports that are overvoltage protected up to +6V independent of the supply voltage. The four I/O ports configured as inputs are continuously monitored for state changes (transition detection). State changes are indicated by the open-drain active-low INT output. The interrupt is latched, allowing detection of transient changes. When the MAX7323 is subsequently accessed through the serial interface, any pending interrupt is cleared. The four push-pull and four open-drain outputs are rated to sink 20mA and are capable of driving LEDs. The active-low RST input clears the serial interface, terminating any I²C communication to or from the MAX7323. The MAX7323 uses two address inputs with four-level logic to allow 16 I²C slave addresses. The slave address also determines the power-up logic state for the I/O ports, and enables or disables internal 40kO pullups for the input ports in groups of two ports. The MAX7323 is one device in a family of pin-compatible port expanders with a choice of input ports, open-drain I/O ports, and push-pull output ports. The MAX7323 is available in 16-pin QSOP and 16-pin TQFN packages, and is specified over the automotive temperature range (-40°C to +125°C).
