Have you run out of I/O pins? This great module allows the user to expand up to 16 I/O using only two I/O for control!
The PCF8575 is controlled through an I2C interface and features 16-bits of quasi-bidirectional input/output pins.
On board 3.3V level converter circuit, if you donot solder VCC-VDD pad, the PCF8575 level is 3.3V. If you solder it, the level will be the same with VCC.
Features:
- Arduino available library: PCF8575
- Working voltage: 2.5 - 5.5VDC
- Working current: 100mA(MAX)
- I2C address: 0x20(default), can be modified by soldering A1 and A2 selection pads.
- 16 individually addressable pins.
- Each pin configurable for input or output.
- Open-drain interrupt output pin for input change interrupt.
- Great for Arduino UNO R3 and other MCU to control simple relay, buzzer, button, led.
