Pin Description
SCL: Serial Clock
The serial clock input clocks all data transferred into or out
of the device. The SCL line requires a pull−up resistor if it
is driven by an open drain output.
SDA: Serial Data/Address
The bidirectional serial data/address pin is used to transfer
all data into and out of the device. The SDA pin is an open
drain output and can be wire−ORed with other open drain or
open collector outputs. A pull−up resistor must be connected
from SDA line to V
CC
. The value of the pull−up resistor, R
P
,
can be calculated based on minimum and maximum values
from Figure 4 and Figure 5 (see Note).
A0, A1, A2: Device Address Inputs
These inputs are used for extended addressing capability.
The A0, A1, A2 pins should be hardwired to V
CC
or V
SS
.
When hardwired, up to eight CAT9555s may be addressed
on a single bus system. The levels on these inputs are
compared with corresponding bits, A2, A1, A0, from the
slave address byte.

: Input / Output Ports
Any of these pins may be configured as input or output.
The simplified schematic of I/O

to I/O

is shown in
Figure 6. When an I/O is configured as an input, the Q1 and
Q2 output transistors are off creating a high impedance input
with a weak pull−up resistor (typical 100 kW). If the I/O pin
is configured as an output, the push−pull output stage is
enabled. Care should be taken if an external voltage is
applied to an I/O pin configured as an output due to the low
impedance paths that exist between the pin and either V
CC
or V
SS
.

NOTE: According to the Fast Mode I
2
C bus specification, for bus capacitance up to 200 pF, the pull up device can be a resistor. For bus
loads between 200 pF and 400 pF, the pull−up device can be a current source (Imax = 3 mA) or a switched resistor circuit.
