XRA1201/1201P
16-BIT I2C/SMBUS GPIO EXPANDER
SEPTEMBER 2011
REV. 1.0.0
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The XRA1201/1201P is a 16-bit GPIO expander with an I2C/SMBus interface. After power-up, the XRA1201 has internal 100K ohm pull-up resistors on each I/O pin that can be individually enabled. The XRA1201P has the internal pull-up resistors enabled upon power-up in case it is necessary for the inputs to be in a known state.
In addition, the GPIOs on the XRA1201/1201P can individually be controlled and configured. As outputs, the GPIOs can be outputs that are high, low or in three-state mode. The three-state mode feature is useful for applications where the power is removed from the remote devices, but they may still be connected to the GPIO expander.
