INT can be connected to the interrupt input of a microcontroller. By sending an interrupt signal on this line, the
remote I/O can inform the microcontroller if there is incoming data on its ports without having to communicate via
the I
2
C bus. Thus, the PCA9538 can remain a simple slave device.
The device outputs (latched) have high-current drive capability for directly driving LEDs. It has low current
consumption.
Two hardware pins (A0 and A1) are used to program and vary the fixed I
2
C address and allow up to four devices
to share the same I
2
C bus or SMBus.
