Product Overview

The Texas Instruments TCA6416 is a 16-bit I2C SMBus I/O expander in the Signal_Chain category. It uses a two-line bidirectional bus with SCL and SDA and supports Fast-mode I2C bus operation to 400 kHz. The P-port provides 16 bits of GPIO expansion, and all channels are configured as inputs at power up.

The device uses separate recommended supply ranges for VCCI and VCCP, both specified from 1.65 V to 5.5 V. SCL and SDA input thresholds reference VCCI, while ADDR, RESET, and P-port input thresholds reference VCCP. The active-low RESET input can be pulled to VCCP when unused, and the open-drain active-low INT output requires a pullup to VCCI or VCCP.

Package options include TSSOP-24 7.80 mm x 4.40 mm, WQFN-24 4.00 mm x 4.00 mm, and BGA-24 3.00 mm x 3.00 mm. Thermal impedance is specified as 88 °C/W for PW, 66 °C/W for RTW, and 171.6 °C/W for ZQS packages.
