General description
●The PCA9501 is an 8-bit I/O expander with an on-board 2-kbit EEPROM.
●The I/O expandable eight quasi-bidirectional data pins can be independently assigned as inputs or outputs to monitor board level status or activate indicator devices such as LEDs.
●The system master writes to the I/O configuration bits in the same way as for the PCF8574. The data for each input or output is kept in the corresponding input or output register. The system master can read all registers.
●Features
●8 general purpose input/output expander/collector
●Replacement for PCF8574 with integrated 2-kbit EEPROM
●Internal 256×8 EEPROM
●Self timed write cycle (5 ms typical)
●16 byte page write operation
●I2C-bus and SMBus interface logic
●Internal power-on reset
●Noise filter on SCL/SDA inputs
●Active LOW interrupt output
●6 address pins allowing up to 64 devices on the I2C-bus/SMBus
●No glitch on power-up
●Supports hot insertion
●Power-up with all channels configured as inputs
●Low standby current
●Operating power supply voltage range of 2.5 V to 3.6 V
●5 V tolerant inputs/outputs
●0 Hz to 400 kHz clock frequency
●ESD protection exceeds 2000 V HBM per JESD22-A114, 200 V MM per JESD22-A115 and 1000 V CDM per JESD22-C101
●Latch-up testing is done to JEDEC Standard JESD78 which exceeds 100 mA
●Packages offered: SO20, TSSOP20, HVQFN20
●Applications
●Board version tracking and configuration

●General-purpose integrated I/O with memory
●Replacement for PCF8574 with integrated 2-kbit EEPROM
●Bus master sees GPIO and EEPROM as two separate devices
●Six hardware address pins allow up to 64 PCA9501s to be located in the same I2C-bus/SMBus
