Overview
PCA9550 2-bit I2C-bus LED driver with programmable blink rates Rev.
05 — 13 October 2008 Product data sheet 1.
General description The PCA9550 LED blinker blinks LEDs in I2C-bus and SMBus applications where it is necessary to limit bus traffic or free up the I2C master's (MCU, MPU, DSP, chip set, etc.
) timer.
The uniqueness of this device is the internal oscillator with two programmable blink rates.
To blink LEDs using normal I/O expanders like the PCF8574 or PCA9554, the bus master must send repeated commands to turn the LED on and off.
This greatly increases the amount of traffic on the I2C-bus and uses up one of the master's timers.
The PCA9550 LED blinker instead requires only the init...
