8.3 Feature Description
8.3.1 I/O Port
When an I/O is configured as an input, FETs Q1 and Q2 are off, which creates a high-impedance input. The
input voltage may be raised above VCC to a maximum of 5.5 V.
If the I/O is configured as an output, Q1 or Q2 is enabled, depending on the state of the Output Port register. In
this case, there are low-impedance paths between the I/O pin and either VCC or GND. The external voltage
applied to this I/O pin should not exceed the recommended levels for proper operation.
8.3.2 RESET Input
A reset can be accomplished by holding the RESET pin low for a minimum of tW. The TCA9539 registers and
I2C/SMBus state machine are held in their default states until RESET is once again high. This input requires a
pullup resistor to VCC, if no active connection is used.
