General description
The PCAL6416A is a 16-bit general-purpose I/O expander that provides remote I/O
2
expansion for most microcontroller families via the I C-bus interface.
NXP I/O expanders provide a simple solution when additional I/Os are needed while
keeping interconnections to a minimum, for example, in battery-powered mobile
applications for interfacing to sensors, push buttons, keypad, etc. In addition to providing
a flexible set of GPIOs, it simplifies interconnection of a processor running at one
voltage level to I/O devices operating at a different (usually higher) voltage level. The
PCAL6416A has built-in level shifting feature that makes these devices extremely flexible
in mixed signal environments where communication between incompatible I/O voltages
is required. Its wide VDD range of 1.65 V to 5.5 V on the dual power rail allows seamless
communications with next-generation low voltage microprocessors and microcontrollers
on the interface side (SDA/SCL) and peripherals at a higher voltage on the port side.
There are two supply voltages for PCAL6416A: VDD(I2C-bus) and VDD(P). VDD(I2Cbus) provides the supply voltage for the interface at the master side (for example, a
microcontroller) and the VDD(P) provides the supply for core circuits and Port P. The
bidirectional voltage level translation in the PCAL6416A is provided through VDD(I2C-bus).
VDD(I2C-bus) should be connected to the VDD of the external SCL/SDA lines. This indicates
2
the VDD level of the I C-bus to the PCAL6416A, while the voltage level on Port P of the
PCAL6416A is determined by the VDD(P).
The PCAL6416A contains the PCA6416A register set of four pairs of 8-bit Configuration,
Input, Output, and Polarity Inversion registers and additionally, the PCAL6416A
has Agile I/O, which are additional features specifically designed to enhance the I/
O. These additional features are: programmable output drive strength, latchable
inputs, programmable pull-up/pull-down resistors, maskable interrupt, interrupt status
register, programmable open-drain or push-pull outputs. The PCAL6416A is a pinto-pin replacement to the PCA6416A, however, the PCAL6416A powers up with all I/
O interrupts masked. This mask default allows for a board bring-up free of spurious
interrupts at power-up.
At power-on, the I/Os are configured as inputs. However, the system master can enable
the I/Os as either inputs or outputs by writing to the I/O configuration bits. The data for
each input or output is kept in the corresponding input or output register. The polarity of
the Input Port register can be inverted with the Polarity Inversion register, saving external
logic gates. Programmable pull-up and pull-down resistors eliminate the need for discrete
components.
The system master can reset the PCAL6416A in the event of a time-out or other
improper operation by asserting a LOW in the RESET input. The power-on reset puts
2
the registers in their default state and initializes the I C-bus/SMBus state machine. The
RESET pin causes the same reset/initialization to occur without depowering the part.

PCAL6416A
Low-voltage translating 16-bit I C-bus/SMBus I/O expander with interrupt output, reset, and
configuration registers
The PCAL6416A open-drain interrupt (INT) output is activated when any input state
differs from its corresponding Input Port register state and is used to indicate to the
system master that an input state has changed.
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
2
on its ports without having to communicate via the I C-bus. Thus, the PCAL6416A can
remain a simple slave device. The input latch feature holds or latches the input pin state
and keeps the logic values that created the interrupt until the master can service the
interrupt. This minimizes the host’s interrupt service response for fast moving inputs.
The device Port P outputs have 25 mA sink capabilities for directly driving LEDs while
consuming low device current.
2
One hardware pin (ADDR) can be used to program and vary the fixed I C-bus address
2
and allow up to two devices to share the same I C-bus or SMBus.

7.3 Pointer register and command byte
Following the successful acknowledgment of the address byte, the bus master sends a
command byte, which is stored in the Pointer register in the PCAL6416A. The lower three
bits of this data byte state the operation (read or write) and the internal registers (Input,
Output, Polarity Inversion, or Configuration) that will be affected. Bit 6 in conjunction with
the lower three bits of the Command byte are used to point to the extended features of
the device (Agile IO). This register is write only.

7.4 Register descriptions
7.4.1 Input port register pair (00h, 01h)
The Input port registers (registers 0 and 1) reflect the incoming logic levels of the pins,
regardless of whether the pin is defined as an input or an output by the Configuration
register. The Input port registers are read only; writes to these registers have no effect.
The default value ‘X’ is determined by the externally applied logic level. An Input port
register read operation is performed as described in Section 8.2.

7.4.2 Output port register pair (02h, 03h)
The Output port registers (registers 2 and 3) shows the outgoing logic levels of the pins
defined as outputs by the Configuration register. Bit values in these registers have no
effect on pins defined as inputs. In turn, reads from these registers reflect the value that
was written to these registers, not the actual pin value. A register pair write operation is
described in Section 8.1. A register pair read operation is described in Section 8.2.

7.4.3 Polarity inversion register pair (04h, 05h)
The Polarity inversion registers (registers 4 and 5) allow polarity inversion of pins defined
as inputs by the Configuration register. If a bit in these registers is set (written with
‘1’), the corresponding port pin’s polarity is inverted in the input register. If a bit in this
register is cleared (written with a ‘0’), the corresponding port pin’s polarity is retained. A
register pair write operation is described in Section 8.1. A register pair read operation is
described in Section 8.2.

7.4.5 Output drive strength register pairs (40h, 41h, 42h, 43h)
The Output drive strength registers control the output drive level of the GPIO. Each
GPIO can be configured independently to a certain output current level by two register
control bits. For example Port 0.7 is controlled by register 41 CC0.7 (bits [7:6]), Port
0.6 is controlled by register 41 CC0.6 (bits [5:4]). The output drive level of the GPIO is
programmed 00b = 0.25×, 01b = 0.5×, 10b = 0.75× or 11b = 1× of the drive capability of
the I/O. See Section 9.2 for more details. A register pair write operation is described in
Section 8.1. A register pair read operation is described in Section 8.2.

7.4.6 Input latch register pair (44h, 45h)
The input latch registers (registers 44 and 45) enable and disable the input latch of the
I/O pins. These registers are effective only when the pin is configured as an input port.
When an input latch register bit is 0, the corresponding input pin state is not latched. A
state change in the corresponding input pin generates an interrupt. A read of the input
register clears the interrupt. If the input goes back to its initial logic state before the input
port register is read, then the interrupt is cleared.
When an input latch register bit is 1, the corresponding input pin state is latched. A
change of state of the input generates an interrupt and the input logic value is loaded
into the corresponding bit of the input port register (registers 0 and 1). A read of the input
port register clears the interrupt. If the input pin returns to its initial logic state before the
input port register is read, then the interrupt is not cleared and the corresponding bit of
the input port register keeps the logic value that initiated the interrupt. See Figure 16.

Low-voltage translating 16-bit I C-bus/SMBus I/O expander with interrupt output, reset, and
configuration registers
For example, if the P0_4 input was as logic 0 and the input goes to logic 1 then back to
logic 0, the input port 0 register will capture this change and an interrupt is generated
(if unmasked). When the read is performed on the input port 0 register, the interrupt is
cleared, assuming there were no additional input(s) that have changed, and bit 4 of the
input port 0 register will read ‘1’. The next read of the input port register bit 4 register
should now read ‘0’.
An interrupt remains active when a non-latched input simultaneously switches state with
a latched input and then returns to its original state. A read of the input register reflects
only the change of state of the latched input and also clears the interrupt. The interrupt is
not cleared if the input latch register changes from latched to non-latched configuration.
If the input pin is changed from latched to non-latched input, a read from the input
port register reflects the current port logic level. If the input pin is changed from nonlatched to latched input, the read from the input register reflects the latched logic level. A
register pair write operation is described in Section 8.1. A register pair read operation is
described in Section 8.2.

7.4.7 Pull-up/pull-down enable register pair (46h, 47h)
These registers allow the user to enable or disable pull-up/pull-down resistors on the I/O
pins. Setting the bit to logic 1 enables the selection of pull-up/pull-down resistors. Setting
the bit to logic 0 disconnects the pull-up/pull-down resistors from the I/O pins. Also, the
resistors will be disconnected when the outputs are configured as open-drain outputs
(see Section 7.4.11). Use the pull-up/pull-down registers to select either a pull-up or pulldown resistor. A register pair write operation is described in Section 8.1. A register pair
read operation is described in Section 8.2.

7.4.8 Pull-up/pull-down selection register pair (48h, 49h)
The I/O port can be configured to have pull-up or pull-down resistor by programming
the pull-up/pull-down selection register. Setting a bit to logic 1 selects a 100 kΩ pull-up
resistor for that I/O pin. Setting a bit to logic 0 selects a 100 kΩ pull-down resistor for
that I/O pin. If the pull-up/down feature is disconnected, writing to this register will have
no effect on I/O pin. Typical value is 100 kΩ with minimum of 50 kΩ and maximum of
150 kΩ. A register pair write operation is described in Section 8.1. A register pair read
operation is described in Section 8.2.

7.4.9 Interrupt mask register pair (4Ah, 4Bh)
Interrupt mask registers are set to logic 1 upon power-on, disabling interrupts during
system start-up. Interrupts may be enabled by setting corresponding mask bits to logic 0.
If an input changes state and the corresponding bit in the Interrupt mask register is set to
1, the interrupt is masked and the interrupt pin will not be asserted. If the corresponding
bit in the Interrupt mask register is set to 0, the interrupt pin will be asserted.
When an input changes state and the resulting interrupt is masked (interrupt mask bit
is 1), setting the input mask register bit to 0 will cause the interrupt pin to be asserted.
If the interrupt mask bit of an input that is currently the source of an interrupt is set to
1, the interrupt pin will be de-asserted. A register pair write operation is described in
Section 8.1. A register pair read operation is described in Section 8.2.

7.4.10 Interrupt status register pair (4Ch, 4Dh)
These read-only registers are used to identify the source of an interrupt. When read, a
logic 1 indicates that the corresponding input pin was the source of the interrupt. A logic 0
indicates that the input pin is not the source of an interrupt.
When a corresponding bit in the interrupt mask register is set to 1 (masked), the interrupt
status bit will return logic 0. A register pair write operation is described in Section 8.1. A
register pair read operation is described in Section 8.2.

7.4.11 Output port configuration register (4Fh)
The output port configuration register selects port-wise push-pull or open-drain I/O stage.
A logic 0 configures the I/O as push-pull (Q1 and Q2 are active, see Figure 10). A logic
1 configures the I/O as open-drain (Q1 is disabled, Q2 is active) and the recommended
command sequence is to program this register (4Fh) before the configuration register
(06h and 07h) sets the port pins as outputs.
ODEN0 configures Port 0_x and ODEN1 configures Port 1_x.

7.5 I/O port
When an I/O is configured as an input, FETs Q1 and Q2 are off, which creates a highimpedance input. The input voltage may be raised above VDD(P) to a maximum of 5.5 V.
If the I/O is configured as an output, Q1 or Q2 is enabled, depending on the state of the
Output port register. In this case, there are low-impedance paths between the I/O pin and
either VDD(P) or VSS. The external voltage applied to this I/O pin should not exceed the
recommended levels for proper operation.

On power-up or reset, all registers return to default values.

7.6 Power-on reset
When power (from 0 V) is applied to VDD(P), an internal power-on reset holds the
PCAL6416A in a reset condition until VDD(P) has reached VPOR. At that time, the reset
2
condition is released and the PCAL6416A registers and I C-bus/SMBus state machine
initializes to their default states. After that, VDD(P) must be lowered to below VPOR and
back up to the operating voltage for a power-reset cycle. See Section 9.3 "Power-on
reset requirements".
7.7 Reset input (RESET)
The RESET input can be asserted to initialize the system while keeping the VDD(P) at
its operating level. A reset can be accomplished by holding the RESET pin LOW for a
2
minimum of tw(rst). The PCAL6416A registers and I C-bus/SMBus state machine are
changed to their default state once RESET is LOW (0). When RESET is HIGH (1), the
I/O levels at the P port can be changed externally or through the master. This input
requires a pull-up resistor to VDD(I2C-bus) if no active connection is used.

Low-voltage translating 16-bit I C-bus/SMBus I/O expander with interrupt output, reset, and

7.8 Interrupt output (INT)
An interrupt is generated by any rising or falling edge of the port inputs in the Input mode.
After time tv(INT), the signal INT is valid. The interrupt is reset when data on the port
changes back to the original value or when data is read from the port that generated
the interrupt (see Figure 16). Resetting occurs in the Read mode at the acknowledge
(ACK) or not acknowledge (NACK) bit after the rising edge of the SCL signal. Interrupts
that occur during the ACK or NACK clock pulse can be lost (or be very short) due to
the resetting of the interrupt during this pulse. Any change of the I/Os after resetting is
detected and is transmitted as INT.
A pin configured as an output cannot cause an interrupt. Changing an I/O from an output
to an input may cause a false interrupt to occur, if the state of the pin does not match the
contents of the Input Port register.
The INT output has an open-drain structure and requires pull-up resistor to VDD(P) or
VDD(I2C-bus), depending on the application. INT should be connected to the voltage source
of the device that requires the interrupt information.
When using the input latch feature, the input pin state is latched. The interrupt is reset
only when data is read from the port that generated the interrupt. The reset occurs in the
Read mode at the acknowledge (ACK) or not acknowledge (NACK) bit after the rising
edge of the SCL signal.
8
Bus transactions
2
The PCAL6416A is an I C-bus slave device. Data is exchanged between the master and
2
PCAL6416A through write and read commands using I C-bus. The two communication
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.
8.1 Write commands
Data is transmitted to the PCAL6416A by sending the device address and setting the
Least Significant Bit (LSB) to a logic 0 (see Figure 8 for device address). The command
byte is sent after the address and determines which register receives the data that
follows the command byte.
Twenty-two registers within the PCAL6416A are configured to operate as eleven register
pairs. The eleven pairs are input port, output port, polarity inversion, configuration, output
drive strength (two 16-bit registers), input latch, pull-up/pull-down enable, pull-up/pulldown selection, interrupt mask, and interrupt status registers. After sending data to one
register, the next data byte is sent to the other register in the pair (see Figure 11 and
Figure 12). For example, if the first byte is sent to Output Port 1 (register 3), the next byte
is stored in Output Port 0 (register 2).
There is no limit on the number of data bytes sent in one write transmission. In this way,
the host can continuously update a register pair independently of the other registers.

8.2 Read commands
To read data from the PCAL6416A, the bus master must first send the PCAL6416A
address with the least significant bit set to a logic 0 (see Figure 8 for device address).
The command byte is sent after the address and determines which register is to be
accessed.
After a restart, the device address is sent again, but this time the least significant bit
is set to a logic 1. Data from the register defined by the command byte is sent by the
PCAL6416A (see Figure 13 and Figure 16). Data is clocked into the register on the rising
edge of the ACK clock pulse. After the first byte is read, additional bytes may be read, but
the data now reflects the information in the other register in the pair. For example, if Input
Port 1 is read, the next byte read is Input Port 0.There is no limit on the number of data
bytes received in one read transmission, but on the final byte received the bus master
must not acknowledge the data.
After a subsequent restart, the command byte contains the value of the next register
to be read in the pair. For example, if Input Port 1 was read last before the restart, the
register that is read after the restart is the Input Port 0.

1. External resistors are required for inputs (on P port) that may float. Also, internal pull-up or pull-down may be used to
eliminate the need for external components. If a driver to an input will never let the input float, a resistor is not needed.
If an output in the P port is configured as a push-pull output there is no need for external pull-up resistors. If an output
in the P port is configured as an open-drain output, external pull-up resistors are required.
Figure 17. Typical application
9.1 Minimizing IDD when the I/Os are used to control LEDs
When the I/Os are used to control LEDs, they are normally connected to VDD through a
resistor as shown in Figure 17. Since the LED acts as a diode, when the LED is off the I/
O VI is about 1.2 V less than VDD(P). The supply current, IDD(P), increases as VI becomes
lower than VDD(P).
Designs needing to minimize current consumption, such as battery power applications,
should consider maintaining the I/O pins greater than or equal to VDD when the
LED is off. Figure 18 shows a high value resistor in parallel with the LED. Figure 19
shows VDD(P) less than the LED supply voltage by at least 1.2 V. Both of these
methods maintain the I/O VI at or above VDD(P) and prevents additional supply current
consumption when the LED is off.

9.2 Output drive strength control
The Output drive strength registers allow the user to control the output drive level of the
GPIO. Each GPIO can be configured independently to one of the four possible output
current levels. By programming these bits the user is changing the number of transistor
pairs or ‘fingers’ that drive the I/O pad.
Figure 20 shows a simplified output stage. The behavior of the pad is affected by the
Configuration register, the output port data, and the current control register. When the
Current Control register bits are programmed to 10b, then only two of the fingers are
active, reducing the current drive capability by 50 %.

Reducing the current drive capability may be desirable to reduce system noise. When
the output switches (transitions from H/L), there is a peak current that is a function of the
output drive selection. This peak current runs through VDD and VSS package inductance

and will create noise (some radiated, but more critically Simultaneous Switching Noise
(SSN)). In other words, switching many outputs at the same time will create ground
and supply noise. The output drive strength control through the Output Drive Strength
registers allows the user to mitigate SSN issues without the need of additional external
components.
9.3 Power-on reset requirements
In the event of a glitch or data corruption, PCAL6416A 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 21 and Figure 22.

9.4 Device current consumption with internal pull-up and pull-down
resistors
The PCAL6416A integrates programmable pull-up and pull-down resistors to eliminate
external components when pins are configured as inputs and pull-up or pull-down
resistors are required (for example, nothing is driving the inputs to the power supply
rails. Since these pull-up and pull-down resistors are internal to the device itself, they
contribute to the current consumption of the device and must be considered in the overall
system design.
The pull-up or pull-down function is selected in registers 48h and 49h, while the resistor
is connected by the enable registers 46h and 47h. The configuration of the resistors is
shown in Figure 10.

Low-voltage translating 16-bit I C-bus/SMBus I/O expander with interrupt output, reset, and
configuration registers
If the resistor is configured as a pull-up, that is, connected to VDD, a current will flow from
the VDD(P) pin through the resistor to ground when the pin is held LOW. This current will
appear as additional IDD upsetting any current consumption measurements.
In the same manner, if the resistor is configured as a pull-down and the pin is held HIGH,
current will flow from the power supply through the pin to the VSS pin. While this current
will not be measured as part of IDD, one must be mindful of the 200 mA limiting value
through VSS.
The pull-up and pull-down resistors are simple resistors and the current is linear with
voltage. The resistance specification for these devices spans from 50 kΩ with a nominal
100 kΩ value. Any current flow through these resistors is additive by the number of pins
held HIGH or LOW and the current can be calculated by Ohm’s law. See Figure 28 for a
graph of supply current versus the number of pull-up resistors.

9.5 I C-bus error recovery techniques
2
There are a number of techniques to recover from error conditions on the I C-bus. Slave
2
devices like the PCAL6416A use a state machine to implement the I C protocol and
expect a certain sequence of events to occur to function properly. Unexpected events
2
at the I C master can wreak havoc with the slaves connected on the bus. However, it is
usually possible to recover deterministically to a known bus state with careful protocol
manipulation.
A hard slave reset, either through power-on reset or by activating the RESET pin, will set
the device back into the default state. Of course, this means the input/output pins and
their configuration will be lost, which might cause some system issues.
A STOP condition, which is only initiated by the master, will reset the slave state machine
into a known condition where SDA is not driven LOW by the slave and logically, the slave
is waiting for a START condition. A STOP condition is defined as SDA transitioning from
LOW to HIGH while SCL is HIGH.
If the master is interrupted during a packet transmission, the slave may be sending data
2
or performing an Acknowledge, driving the I C-bus SDA line LOW. Since SDA is LOW,
2
it effectively blocks any other I C-bus transaction. A deterministic method to clear this
situation, once the master recognizes a ‘stuck bus’ state, is for the master to blindly
transmit nine clocks on SCL. If the slave was transmitting data or acknowledging, nine
or more clocks ensures the slave state machine returns to a known, idle state since the
protocol calls for eight data bits and one ACK bit. It does not matter when the slave state
machine finishes its transmission, extra clocks will be recognized as STOP conditions.
The PCAL6416A SCL pin is an input only. If SCL is stuck LOW, then only the bus master
or a slave performing a clock stretch operation can cause this condition.
2
With careful design of the bus master error recovery firmware, many I C-bus protocol
problems can be avoided.

For IDD, all typical values are at nominal supply voltage (1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V, 3.6 V or 5 V VDD) and Tamb = 25 °C. Except for IDD, the typical values are at
VDD(P) = VDD(I2C-bus) = 3.3 V and Tamb = 25 °C.
The total current sourced by all I/Os must be limited to 160 mA.
Each I/O must be externally limited to a maximum of 25 mA and each octal (P0_0 to P0_7 and P1_0 to P1_7) must be limited to a maximum current of
100 mA, for a device total of 200 mA.
Typical value for Tamb = 25 °C. VOL = 0.4 V and VDD(I2C-bus) = VDD(P) = 3.3 V. Typical value for VDD(I2C-bus) = VDD(P) < 2.5 V, VOL = 0.6 V.
Internal pull-up/pull-down resistors disabled.

17 Soldering of SMD packages
This text provides a very brief insight into a complex technology. A more in-depth account
of soldering ICs can be found in Application Note AN10365 “Surface mount reflow
soldering description”.
17.1 Introduction to soldering
Soldering is one of the most common methods through which packages are attached
to Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs), to form electrical circuits. The soldered joint provides
both the mechanical and the electrical connection. There is no single soldering method
that is ideal for all IC packages. Wave soldering is often preferred when through-hole
and Surface Mount Devices (SMDs) are mixed on one printed wiring board; however, it is
not suitable for fine pitch SMDs. Reflow soldering is ideal for the small pitches and high
densities that come with increased miniaturization.
17.2 Wave and reflow soldering
Wave soldering is a joining technology in which the joints are made by solder coming
from a standing wave of liquid solder. The wave soldering process is suitable for the
following:
• Through-hole components
• Leaded or leadless SMDs, which are glued to the surface of the printed circuit board
Not all SMDs can be wave soldered. Packages with solder balls, and some leadless
packages which have solder lands underneath the body, cannot be wave soldered. Also,
leaded SMDs with leads having a pitch smaller than ~0.6 mm cannot be wave soldered,
due to an increased probability of bridging.
The reflow soldering process involves applying solder paste to a board, followed by
component placement and exposure to a temperature profile. Leaded packages,
packages with solder balls, and leadless packages are all reflow solderable.
Key characteristics in both wave and reflow soldering are:
•
•
•
•
•
•
Board specifications, including the board finish, solder masks and vias
Package footprints, including solder thieves and orientation
The moisture sensitivity level of the packages
Package placement
Inspection and repair
Lead-free soldering versus SnPb soldering
17.3 Wave soldering
Key characteristics in wave soldering are:
• Process issues, such as application of adhesive and flux, clinching of leads, board
transport, the solder wave parameters, and the time during which components are
exposed to the wave
• Solder bath specifications, including temperature and impurities
17.4 Reflow soldering
Key characteristics in reflow soldering are:

Low-voltage translating 16-bit I C-bus/SMBus I/O expander with interrupt output, reset, and
configuration registers
• Lead-free versus SnPb soldering; note that a lead-free reflow process usually leads
to higher minimum peak temperatures (see Figure 41) than a SnPb process, thus
reducing the process window
• Solder paste printing issues including smearing, release, and adjusting the process
window for a mix of large and small components on one board
• Reflow temperature profile; this profile includes preheat, reflow (in which the board
is heated to the peak temperature) and cooling down. It is imperative that the peak
temperature is high enough for the solder to make reliable solder joints (a solder
paste characteristic). In addition, the peak temperature must be low enough that the
packages and/or boards are not damaged. The peak temperature of the package
depends on package thickness and volume and is classified in accordance with
Table 38 and Table 39

Moisture sensitivity precautions, as indicated on the packing, must be respected at all
times.
Studies have shown that small packages reach higher temperatures during reflow
soldering, see Figure 41.
