PCA9674/74A

Remote 8-bit I/O expander for Fm+ I2C-bus with interrupt

Characteristics of the I2C-bus

The I2C-bus is for 2-way, 2-line communication between different ICs or modules. The two

lines are a serial data line (SDA) and a serial clock line (SCL). Both lines must be

connected to a positive supply via a pull-up resistor when connected to the output stages

of a device. Data transfer may be initiated only when the bus is not busy.

9.1 Bit transfer

One data bit is transferred during each clock pulse. The data on the SDA line must remain

stable during the HIGH period of the clock pulse as changes in the data line at this time

will be interpreted as control signals (see Figure 17).

9.1.1 START and STOP conditions

Both data and clock lines remain HIGH when the bus is not busy. A HIGH-to-LOW

transition of the data line while the clock is HIGH is deﬁned as the START condition (S). A

LOW-to-HIGH transition of the data line while the clock is HIGH is deﬁned as the STOP

condition (P) (see Figure 18.)

9.2 System conﬁguration

A device generating a message is a ‘transmitter'; a device receiving is the ‘receiver'. The

device that controls the message is the ‘master' and the devices which are controlled by

the master are the ‘slaves' (see Figure 19).
