Product details
Overview
PCA9534PW,118 from NXP Semiconductors is an 8-bit I²C-bus/SMBus GPIO expander in TSSOP16 package, providing configurable input/output ports, polarity inversion, and open-drain interrupt output. It operates from 2.3 V to 5.5 V, tolerates 5 V on I/Os, supports up to 400 kHz clock frequency, and targets low-power embedded control applications such as sensor interfacing and LED/fan management.
For engineers reviewing the PCA9534PW,118 datasheet, PCA9534PW,118 pinout, PCA9534PW,118 application, or PCA9534PW,118 equivalent, this page delivers verified register-level functionality, I²C address configuration (0x20–0x27), interrupt timing (tv(INT_N) = 4 µs), standby current (≤1 µA), and TSSOP16 mechanical dimensions for layout and thermal validation.
Technical Context
The PCA9534PW,118 implements a four-register architecture: Configuration (R/W, sets I/O direction), Input Port (read-only, reflects pin states), Output Port (R/W, controls outputs), and Polarity Inversion (R/W, flips input logic). All registers are accessible via standard I²C write/read sequences using command bytes 0x00–0x03.
Its interrupt output (INT) is active LOW and open-drain, asserting when any configured input changes state relative to its Input Port register value. Address selection uses A0–A2 pins, enabling eight devices on one bus with fixed 7-bit slave address 0b0100xxx (0x20–0x27). Power-on reset initializes all I/Os as inputs and clears registers to default values.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 2.3 V to 5.5 V - supports direct interface with 3.3 V and 5 V systems without level shifters. |
| I/O Voltage Tolerance | 5.5 V max on I/O pins - enables safe connection to 5 V peripherals even when VDD = 3.3 V. |
| Max I²C Clock Frequency | 400 kHz - compatible with Fast-mode I²C, enabling higher throughput than standard 100 kHz mode. |
| Standby Current | ≤1 µA at VDD = 5.5 V, I/O = inputs - critical for battery-powered systems requiring ultra-low quiescent power. |
| Interrupt Response Time | tv(INT_N) = 4 µs - ensures timely notification of input transitions for real-time system response. |
| ESD Protection | 2000 V HBM, 200 V MM, 1000 V CDM - meets industrial handling requirements without external protection. |
| Output Drive Strength | 10 mA sink per I/O at VOL = 0.7 V (VDD = 3.0 V) - sufficient to drive LEDs or small logic loads directly. |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP16 package (SOT403-1): plastic thin shrink small outline, 16 leads, body width 4.4 mm, 0.65 mm pitch, exposed pad not present (unlike HVQFN variants).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0 | Address input 0 | LSB of 3-bit hardware I²C address; sets bit 1 of slave address (0x20–0x27). |
| A1 | Address input 1 | Middle bit of 3-bit hardware I²C address; enables up to eight devices on same bus. |
| A2 | Address input 2 | MSB of 3-bit hardware I²C address; combined with A0/A1 defines unique 7-bit slave address. |
| IO0–IO7 | Configurable I/O port pins | Individually set as input (high-Z) or output via Configuration register; support 5 V tolerant operation. |
| INT | Open-drain interrupt output | Active LOW signal asserted when input state differs from Input Port register; requires external pull-up. |
| SCL | I²C serial clock input | Accepts standard/fast-mode clocks up to 400 kHz; includes internal noise filter for robust timing. |
| SDA | I²C serial data bidirectional line | Open-drain interface with internal noise filter; shares bus with other I²C devices. |
| VDD | Positive supply voltage | Power rail for internal logic and I/O drivers; range 2.3 V–5.5 V. |
| VSS | Ground reference | Return path for all currents; must be connected to system ground plane. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Individual I/O configuration | Each of 8 I/Os independently set as input or output via Configuration register bits C0–C7. |
| Polarity inversion per input | Input Port register data inverted per-bit via Polarity Inversion register (N0–N7), simplifying active-LOW sensor integration. |
| No-glitch power-up behavior | Internal power-on reset ensures all registers initialize to known defaults (I/Os = inputs, outputs = high) before first access. |
| Low EMI SCL/SDA filtering | Integrated noise filters on SCL and SDA reject spikes ≤50 ns, improving bus reliability in noisy environments. |
| 5 V tolerant I/Os without external components | I/O pins withstand up to 5.5 V regardless of VDD level - eliminates need for external level translators in mixed-voltage systems. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar GPIO expander applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| PCA9554PW,118 | Includes internal 100 kΩ I/O pull-up resistors; otherwise identical register map and pinout. | Higher quiescent current when I/Os held LOW; unsuitable for ultra-low-power battery applications. | Select PCA9534PW,118 when minimizing standby current is critical; choose PCA9554PW,118 only if pull-ups simplify board design. |
| TCA6408APWR | TI part with same 8-bit I²C GPIO function but different I²C address (0x20–0x27), no polarity inversion register, and 1 µA typical standby current. | Lacks polarity inversion - requires software negation for active-LOW inputs; pin-compatible but register mapping differs. | Use TCA6408APWR only if polarity inversion is unnecessary and TI supply chain preference applies; PCA9534PW,118 offers superior feature parity. |
Compared with PCA9554PW,118, PCA9534PW,118 saves >10 µA standby current by omitting internal pull-ups; versus TCA6408APWR, it provides hardware polarity inversion to reduce firmware overhead in active-LOW sensor interfaces.

FAQ
What is the I²C address range supported by PCA9534PW,118?
The PCA9534PW,118 supports eight fixed I²C slave addresses from 0x20 to 0x27, determined by the logic levels on hardware pins A0, A1, and A2. Each combination selects a unique 7-bit address, allowing up to eight PCA9534PW,118 devices on a single I²C bus without address conflict.
Does PCA9534PW,118 require external pull-up resistors on SCL and SDA lines?
Yes, PCA9534PW,118 requires external pull-up resistors on both SCL and SDA lines, as it uses open-drain I²C interface logic. Typical values are 2.2 kΩ to 4.7 kΩ for 100 kHz operation and 1 kΩ to 2.2 kΩ for 400 kHz Fast-mode, depending on bus capacitance and VDD level.
How does the interrupt output (INT) of PCA9534PW,118 behave after being triggered?
The INT pin of PCA9534PW,118 remains asserted (LOW) until the Input Port register is read by the master - this clears the interrupt condition. The pin is open-drain and requires an external pull-up resistor; it de-asserts automatically upon register read, enabling edge-triggered or level-sensitive wake-up schemes.
Can PCA9534PW,118 drive LEDs directly without current-limiting resistors?
No, PCA9534PW,118 cannot drive LEDs without external current-limiting resistors. Its I/O pins support up to 10 mA sink per pin (VOL = 0.7 V at VDD = 3.0 V), but LED forward voltage and desired brightness require series resistors - e.g., 220 Ω for ~10 mA at 3.3 V with red LED.
Is PCA9534PW,118 pin-compatible with PCA9534D,118?
Yes, PCA9534PW,118 is pin-compatible with PCA9534D,118 - both share identical TSSOP16 and SO16 pinouts per Figures 2 and 3 in the datasheet. Functionally identical registers, timing, and electrical specs allow direct substitution where package height or thermal profile permits.
