Control Register and Command Byte

Following the successful acknowledgment of the address byte, the bus controller sends a command byte that is stored in the control register in the TCA9537. This data byte states the operation (read or write) and the internal register (Input, Output, Polarity Inversion, or Configuration) that sre affected. This register can be written or read through the I2C bus. The command byte is sent only during a write transmission.

Once a command byte has been sent, the register that was addressed continues to be accessed by reads until a new command byte has been sent.
