This is an IO expansion module that based on the chip MCP23017. The module can expand additional 16 IOs. It can set 8 IIC addresses, which means with this module, the microcontroller can connect 8 modules, and expand 128 IOs at most. The module solves insufficient IO ports problem in applications like robots and interactive medias.

This Gravity: MCP23017 IIC IO 16 digital IO expansion module has 2 groups of IO pins, GPIOA and GPIOB. Each group has 8 independent IO interfaces, and each IO interface can be set to input, output, pull-up input (connect to 100KΩ pull-up resistor), interrupt and so on.

Besides, the module has 2 interrupt signal pins: IA and IB. IA is used to detect the interruption in IO interfaces of GPIOA, and IB is used to detect the interruption in IO interfaces of GPIOB. When one pin of GPIOA or GPIOB interrupts, the corresponding IA or IB will produce a high-level signal.

FEATURES

  • Supporting to expand 128 IOs at most
  • Multiple IO mode 
  • Changeable IIC address by dial switch
  • Multiple VCC and GND pins leaded
  • Compatible with both 3.3V and 5V

Scenarios

  • Robots
  • Interactive medias
  • Light cube 

SPECIFICATION

  • Operating Voltage: 3.3V~5.5V
  • IIC Address: 0x20~0x27
  • Digital Input/Output: 20Ma
  • Signal Interrupt Pin: IA, IB
  • Dimension: 44x32mm / 1.73x1.26inch

Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.

Gravity
Gravity is DFRobot’s plug-in connector system for sensors, motors and modules, using standard cables to reduce loose jumper wiring. It matters because Gravity-compatible parts can connect directly to these ports, while non-Gravity parts may need adapters or manual wiring.
microcontroller
A microcontroller is a small computer on a chip that runs your program and controls connected inputs and outputs. For this product, it is the part that reads buttons and sensors, drives the display and speaker, and communicates over Bluetooth.
