2.1.4 IO Expander

AM263Px LaunchPad has an TCA6416ARTWR IO Expander, that provides general-purpose remote I/O expansion and bidirectional voltage translation for processors through I2C communication, an interface consisting of serial clock (SCL), and serial data (SDA) signals.

The TCA6416A's digital core consists of eight 8-bit data registers: two Configuration registers (input or output selection), two Input Port registers, two Output Port registers, and two Polarity Inversion registers. At power on or after a reset, the I/Os are configured as inputs. However, the system controller can configure the I/Os as either inputs or outputs by writing to the Configuration registers. The data for each input or output is kept in the corresponding Input Port or Output Port register. The polarity of the Input Port register can be inverted with the Polarity Inversion register. All registers can be read by the system controller. In AM263P SoC, the communication with IO Expander is done through I2C1 bus. The signals that are coming out of the IO Expander shown in IO Expander. Please refer to TCA6416ARTWR-Datasheet for programming guide of TCA6416ARTWR.
