Description
Each port configured as a GPIO can be either a push-pull logic output capable of sinking 10mA and sourcing 4.5mA, or a Schmitt logic input with optional internal pullup. Seven ports feature configurable transition detection logic, which generates an interrupt upon change of port logic level. The MAX6957 is controlled through an SPI-compatible 4-wire serial interface.
The MAX6957AAX and MAX6957ATL have 28 ports and are available in 36-pin SSOP and 40-pin TQFN (6mm x 6mm) packages, respectively. The MAX6957AAI and MAX6957ANI have 20 ports and are available in 28-pin SSOP and 28-pin DIP packages, respectively.
For a 2-wire interfaced version, refer to the MAX6956 data sheet.
For a lower cost pin-compatible port expander without the constant-current LED drive capability, refer to the MAX7301 data sheet.
