3 Description
This 8-bit input/output (I/O) expander for the two-line
bidirectional bus (I2C) is designed for 2.5-V to 6-V
VCC operation.
Low Standby-Current Consumption of 10 μA Max
I2C to Parallel-Port Expander
Open-Drain Interrupt Output
Compatible With Most Microcontrollers
Latched Outputs With High-Current Drive
Capability for Directly Driving LEDs
Latch-Up Performance Exceeds 100 mA
Per JESD 78, Class II
The PCF8574 device provides general-purpose
remote I/O expansion for most microcontroller
families by way of the I2C interface [serial clock
(SCL), serial data (SDA)].
The device features an 8-bit quasi-bidirectional I/O
port (P0–P7), including latched outputs with highcurrent drive capability for directly driving LEDs. Each
quasi-bidirectional I/O can be used as an input or
output without the use of a data-direction control
signal. At power on, the I/Os are high. In this mode,
only a current source to VCC is active.

The PCF8574 device is an 8-bit I/O expander for the two-line bidirectional bus (I2C) is designed for 2.5-V to 5.5V VCC operation. It provides general-purpose remote I/O expansion for most micro-controller families via the I2C
interface (serial clock, SCL, and serial data, SDA, pins).
The PCF8574 device provides an open-drain output (INT) that can be connected to the interrupt input of a
microcontroller. An interrupt is generated by any rising or falling edge of the port inputs in the input mode. After
time, tiv, INT is valid. Resetting and reactivating the interrupt circuit is achieved when data on the port is changed
to the original setting or data is read from, or written to, the port that generated the interrupt. Resetting occurs in
the read mode at the acknowledge bit after the rising edge of the SCL signal, or in the write mode at the
acknowledge bit after the high-to-low transition of the SCL signal. Interrupts that occur during the acknowledge
clock pulse can be lost (or be very short) due to the resetting of the interrupt during this pulse. Each change of
the I/Os after resetting is detected and, after the next rising clock edge, is transmitted as INT. Reading from, or
writing to, another device does not affect the interrupt circuit. This device does not have internal configuration or
status registers. Instead, read or write to the device I/Os directly after sending the device address (see Figure 16
and Figure 17).
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 by way of the I2C bus. Therefore, PCF8574 can remain a simple
slave device.
An additional strong pullup to VCC allows fast rising edges into heavily loaded outputs. This device turns on when
an output is written high and is switched off by the negative edge of SCL. The I/Os should be high before being
used as inputs.

8.3 Feature Description
8.3.1 I2C Interface
I2C communication with this device is initiated by a master sending a start condition, a high-to-low transition on
the SDA I/O while the SCL input is high. After the start condition, the device address byte is sent, mostsignificant bit (MSB) first, including the data direction bit (R/W). This device does not respond to the general call
address. After receiving the valid address byte, this device responds with an acknowledge, a low on the SDA I/O
during the high of the acknowledge-related clock pulse. The address inputs (A0–A2) of the slave device must not
be changed between the start and the stop conditions.
The data byte follows the address acknowledge. If the R/W bit is high, the data from this device are the values
read from the P port. If the R/W bit is low, the data are from the master, to be output to the P port. The data byte
is followed by an acknowledge sent from this device. If other data bytes are sent from the master, following the
acknowledge, they are ignored by this device. Data are output only if complete bytes are received and
acknowledged. The output data will be valid at time, tpv, after the low-to-high transition of SCL and during the
clock cycle for the acknowledge.
A stop condition, which is a low-to-high transition on the SDA I/O while the SCL input is high, is sent by the
master.

Typical Application (continued)
9.2.1 Design Requirements
9.2.1.1 Minimizing ICC When I/Os Control LEDs
When the I/Os are used to control LEDs, normally they are connected to VCC through a resistor as shown in
Figure 18. For a P-port configured as an input, ICC increases as VI becomes lower than VCC. The LED is a diode,
with threshold voltage VT, and when a P-port is configured as an input the LED will be off but VI is a VT drop
below VCC.
For battery-powered applications, it is essential that the voltage of P-ports controlling LEDs is greater than or
equal to VCC when the P-ports are configured as input to minimize current consumption. Figure 19 shows a highvalue resistor in parallel with the LED. Figure 20 shows VCC less than the LED supply voltage by at least VT.
Both of these methods maintain the I/O VI at or above VCC and prevents additional supply current consumption
when the P-port is configured as an input and the LED is off.

Typical Application (continued)
9.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure
The pull-up resistors, RP, for the SCL and SDA lines need to be selected appropriately and take into
consideration the total capacitance of all slaves on the I2C bus. The minimum pull-up resistance is a function of
VCC, VOL,(max), and IOL:
Rp(min) =
VCC - VOL(max)
IOL
(1)
The maximum pull-up resistance is a function of the maximum rise time, tr (300 ns for fast-mode operation, fSCL =
400 kHz) and bus capacitance, Cb:
Rp(max) =
tr
0.8473 ´ Cb
(2)
2
The maximum bus capacitance for an I C bus must not exceed 400 pF for standard-mode or fast-mode
operation. The bus capacitance can be approximated by adding the capacitance of the PCF8574 device, Ci for
SCL or Cio for SDA, the capacitance of wires/connections/traces, and the capacitance of additional slaves on the
bus.

10 Power Supply Recommendations
10.1 Power-On Reset Requirements
In the event of a glitch or data corruption, the PCF8574 device can be reset to its default conditions by using the
power-on reset feature. Power-on reset requires that the device go through a power cycle to be completely reset.
This reset also happens when the device is powered on for the first time in an application.
The two types of power-on reset are shown in Figure 23 and Figure 24.

Glitches in the power supply can also affect the power-on reset performance of this device. The glitch width
(VCC_GW) and height (VCC_GH) are dependent on each other. The bypass capacitance, source impedance, and
device impedance are factors that affect power-on reset performance. Figure 25 and Table 1 provide more
information on how to measure these specifications.

VPOR is critical to the power-on reset. VPOR is the voltage level at which the reset condition is released and all the
registers and the I2C/SMBus state machine are initialized to their default states. The value of VPOR differs based
on the VCC being lowered to or from 0. Figure 26 and Table 1 provide more details on this specification.

11 Layout
11.1 Layout Guidelines
For printed circuit board (PCB) layout of the PCF8574 device, common PCB layout practices should be followed
but additional concerns related to high-speed data transfer such as matched impedances and differential pairs
are not a concern for I2C signal speeds.
In all PCB layouts, it is a best practice to avoid right angles in signal traces, to fan out signal traces away from
each other upon leaving the vicinity of an integrated circuit (IC), and to use thicker trace widths to carry higher
amounts of current that commonly pass through power and ground traces. By-pass and de-coupling capacitors
are commonly used to control the voltage on the VCC pin, using a larger capacitor to provide additional power in
the event of a short power supply glitch and a smaller capacitor to filter out high-frequency ripple. These
capacitors should be placed as close to the PCF8574 device as possible. These best practices are shown in
Figure 27.
For the layout example provided in Figure 27, it would be possible to fabricate a PCB with only 2 layers by using
the top layer for signal routing and the bottom layer as a split plane for power (VCC) and ground (GND).
However, a 4 layer board is preferable for boards with higher density signal routing. On a 4 layer PCB, it is
common to route signals on the top and bottom layer, dedicate one internal layer to a ground plane, and dedicate
the other internal layer to a power plane. In a board layout using planes or split planes for power and ground,
vias are placed directly next to the surface mount component pad which needs to attach to VCC or GND and the
via is connected electrically to the internal layer or the other side of the board. Vias are also used when a signal
trace needs to be routed to the opposite side of the board, but this technique is not demonstrated in Figure 27.
