General Description
The MAX7321 2-wire serial-interfaced peripheral features
eight open-drain I/O ports with selectable internal pullups
and transition detection. Any port may be used as a logic
input or an open-drain output. Ports are overvoltage
protected to +6V independent of supply voltage.
All I/O ports configured as inputs are continuously
monitored for state changes (transition detection). State
changes are indicated by the open-drain INT output.
The interrupt is latched, allowing detection of transient
changes. When the MAX7321 is subsequently accessed
through the serial interface, any pending interrupt is
cleared.
The open-drain outputs are rated to sink 20mA and are
capable of driving LEDs.
The RST input clears the serial interface, terminating any
I
2
C communication to or from the MAX7321.
The MAX7321 uses two address inputs with four-level
logic to allow 16 I
2
C slave addresses. The slave address
also determines the power-up logic state for the I/O ports,
and enables or disables internal 40kΩ pullups in groups
of four ports.
The MAX7321 is one device in a family of pin-compatible
port expanders with a choice of input ports, open-drain
I/O ports, and push-pull output ports (see Table 1).
The MAX7321 is available in 16-pin QSOP and TQFN
packages, and is specified over the automotive temper-
ature range (-40°C to +125°C).
