Application Scenarios & Design Considerations

4-Wire-Interfaced, 2.5V to 5.5V, 20-Port and 28-Port LED Display Driver and I/O Expander

Alternative Part Number

  • PCA9555PW --: Widely available I2C 16-bit I/O expander with similar GPIO expansion function; different series and manufacturer make it easy to distinguish from the source.
  • MCP23017-E/ML --: Popular I2C 16-bit port expander offering comparable I/O expansion capability in a similar small package; different naming and vendor.
  • TCA9555PWR --: I2C 16-bit I/O expander with interrupt output, functionally close to the MAX6957 display/GPIO driver; distinct series and manufacturer.
  • PCA9535PW --: 16-bit I2C/SMBus I/O expander with similar GPIO expansion function and interrupt output, widely available and pin-compatible in function.
  • MCP23017-E/SS --: 16-bit I2C I/O expander offering comparable port expansion and interrupt capability, good drop-in functional substitute.
