C/SMBus applications and was developed to enhance the Philips
family of I@C I/O expanders. The improvements include higher drive
capability, 5V I/O tolerance, lower supply current, individual I/O
configuration, and smaller packaging. I/O expanders provide a
simple solution when additional I/O is needed for ACPI power
switches, sensors, pushbuttons, LEDs, fans, etc.
The PCA9555 consist of two 8-bit Configuration (Input or Output
selection); Input, Output and Polarity inversion (Active high or Active
low operation) registers. 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 read register can be inverted with
the Polarity Inversion Register. All registers can be read by the
system master. Although pin to pin and I
2
C address compatible with
the PCF8575, software changes are required due to the
enhancements and are discussed in Application Note AN469.
The PCA9555 open-drain interrupt 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. The power-on reset sets the registers to their default
values and initializes the device state machine.
Three hardware pins (A0, A1, A2) vary the fixed I
2
C address and
allow up to eight devices to share the same I
2
C/SMBus. The fixed
I
2
C address of the PCA9555 is the same as the PCA9554 allowing
up to eight of these devices in any combination to share the same
I

C/SMBus.

Figure 4. Simplified schematic of I/Os
I/O port
When an I/O is configured as an input, FETs Q1 and Q2 are off,
creating a high impedance input with a weak pull-up to V
DD
. The
input voltage may be raised above V
DD
to a maximum of 5.5 V.
If the I/O is configured as an output, then either Q1 or Q2 is on,
depending on the state of the Output Port register. Care should be
exercised if an external voltage is applied to an I/O configured as an
output because of the low impedance path that exists between the
pin and either V
DD
or V
SS
.
