description/ordering information
This 8-bit input/output (I/O) expander for the two-line bidirectional bus (I2C) is designed for 2.5-V to 6-V VCC
operation.
The PCF8574 provides general-purpose remote I/O expansion for most microcontroller families via the I2C
interface [serial clock (SCL), serial data (SDA)].
The device features an 8-bit quasi-bidirectional I/O port (P0−P7), including latched outputs with high-current
drive capability for directly driving LEDs. Each quasi-bidirectional I/O can be used as an input or output without
the use of a data-direction control signal. At power on, the I/Os are high. In this mode, only a current source to
VCC is active. An additional strong pullup to VCC allows fast rising edges into heavily loaded outputs. This device
turns on when an output is written high and is switched off by the negative edge of SCL. The I/Os should be
high before being used as inputs.
