Microchip Technology MCP23S08EP 8-bit I/O Expander

The MCP23S08-E/P is an 8-bit I/O expander with a serial interface that provides additional general-purpose, parallel I/O capabilities for SPI applications. It features multiple 8-bit configuration registers for input, output, and polarity control. The system master can configure each pin as either an input or an output by setting the relevant bits. Input and output data are stored in dedicated registers, and the polarity of the input port can be inverted using the polarity inversion register. All registers are accessible via read commands. The device includes an interrupt capture register that records the port values at the moment an interrupt occurs, allowing the system to identify the cause of the interrupt. Features include a bidirectional 8-bit remote I/O port, two hardware address pins supporting up to four devices on the same SPI bus, a configurable interrupt output pin (active-high, active-low, or open-drain), selectable interrupt sources (change or pin change), an external reset input, and low standby current of up to 1µA. This device is suitable for use in communications and networking applications.
