TECHNICAL DATA
KKF8574
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The
KKF8574
is a silicon CMOS circuit. It provides general purpose remote I/O expansion for most
microcontroller families via the two-line bidirectional bus (I
2
C).
The device consists of an 8-bit quasi-bidirectional Port and an I
2
C interface. The
KKF8574
has a low current
consumption and includes latched outputs with high current drive capability for directly driving LEDs. It
also possesses an interrupt line (INT) which can be connected to the interrupt logic of the microcontroller.
By sending an interrupt signal on this line, the remote I/O can inform the microcontroller if there is incoming
data on its ports without having to communicate via the I
2
C-bus. This means that the
KKF8574
can remain a
simple slave device.
