Overview
Le Développez 10 Click Board™ est une carte complémentaire compacte qui contient un extenseur d'E/S multiport. La carte comprend le PCAL6524, un extenseur d'E/S à usage général 24 bits offrant une extension d'E/S à distance pour la plupart des familles de microcontrôleurs via l'interface série Fast-mode Plus I2C de NXP Semiconductors. Le PCAL6524 dispose d'une fonction de décalage de niveau intégrée qui le rend très flexible dans les systèmes d'alimentation où une communication entre des tensions d'E/S incompatibles est requise. Il permet des communications transparentes avec les microprocesseurs et microcontrôleurs basse tension de nouvelle génération sur l'interface et les périphériques à une tension plus élevée côté port. Cette Click Board™ fournit une solution simple lorsque des E/S supplémentaires sont nécessaires tout en réduisant les interconnexions au minimum dans les applications de surveillance du système, les contrôleurs industriels, les équipements portables et bien d'autres.
Le tableau à clic Expand 10™ est pris en charge par une bibliothèque compatible mikroSDK, qui comprend des fonctions qui simplifient le développement logiciel. Cette Click Board™ est un produit entièrement testé, prêt à être utilisé sur un système équipé du socket mikroBUS™.

How Does The Expand 10 Click Board™ Work?
The Expand 10 Click Board™ is based on the PCAL6524, a 24-bit ultra-low-voltage translating general-purpose I/O expander from NXP Semiconductors. This port expander is a simple solution for when additional I/Os are needed while keeping interconnections to a minimum, particularly great for system monitoring applications, industrial controllers, portable equipment, and others. The PCAL6524 has a built-in level shifting feature that makes it highly flexible in power supply systems where communication between incompatible I/O voltages is required.
The PCAL6524 implements Agile I/O features specifically designed to enhance the I/O. These additional features are programmable output drive strength, latchable inputs, programmable pull-up/pull-down resistors, maskable interrupt, interrupt status register, programmable open-drain or push-pull outputs.
The Expand 10 Click Board™ communicates with MCU using the standard I2C 2-Wire interface to read data and configure settings, supporting a Fast Mode Plus operation up to 1MHz. At the Power-On sequence, the I/Os are configured as inputs. However, the host MCU can enable the I/Os as inputs or outputs by writing to the I/O configuration bits. In addition to I2C communication, two GPIO pins connected to the mikroBUS™ socket pins are also used.
The reset pin, routed to the RST pin of the mikroBUS™ socket, is used to place the PCAL6524 registers in their default state, while the interrupt, routed to the INT pin of the mikroBUS™ socket, may be configured as an interrupt to notify the host MCU of incoming data on any port. Besides, it also allows the choice of the least significant bit of its I2C slave address by positioning the SMD jumper labelled as ADDR SEL to an appropriate position marked as 1 and 0.
This Click board™ can operate with both 3.3V and 5V logic voltage levels selected via the VCC SEL jumper. This way, it is allowed for both 3.3V and 5V capable MCUs to use the I2C communication lines properly. However, the Click board™ comes equipped with a library containing easy-to-use functions and an example code that can be used, as a reference, for further development.
