MCP23008/MCP23S08

1.0 DEVICE OVERVIEW

The MCP23X08 device provides 8-bit, general

purpose, parallel I/O expansion for I2C bus or SPI

applications. The two devices differ in the number of

hardware address pins and the serial interface:

• MCP23008 – I2C interface; three address pins

• MCP23S08 – SPI interface; two address pins

The MCP23X08 consists of multiple 8-bit configuration

registers for input, output and polarity selection. The

system master can enable the I/Os as either inputs or

outputs by writing the I/O configuration bits. The data

for each input or output is kept in the corresponding

Input or Output register. The polarity of the Input Port

The interrupt output can be configured to activate

under two conditions (mutually exclusive):

1. When any input state differs from its

corresponding input port register state, this is

used to indicate to the system master that an

input state has changed.

2. When an input state differs from a preconfigured

The Interrupt Capture register captures port values at

the time of the interrupt, thereby saving the condition

that caused the interrupt.

The Power-on Reset (POR) sets the registers to their

default values and initializes the device state machine.

The hardware address pins are used to determine the

device address.

1.2 Power-on Reset (POR)

The on-chip POR circuit holds the device in reset until

VDD has reached a high enough voltage to deactivate

the POR circuit (i.e., release the device from Reset).

The maximum VDD rise time is specified in Section 2.0

“Electrical Characteristics”.

When the device exits the POR condition (releases

reset), device operating parameters (i.e., voltage,

temperature, serial bus frequency, etc.) must be met to

ensure proper operation.

1.3 Serial Interface

This block handles the functionality of the I2C

(MCP23008) or SPI (MCP23S08) interface protocol.

The MCP23X08 contains eleven registers that can be

addressed through the serial interface block (Table 1-2):

TABLE 1-2: REGISTER ADDRESSES

1.3.1 SEQUENTIAL OPERATION BIT

The Sequential Operation (SEQOP) bit (IOCON

The address pointer can either be enabled (default) to

allow the address pointer to increment automatically

after each data transfer, or it can be disabled.

When operating in Sequential mode

(IOCON.SEQOP = 0), the address pointer automati-

cally increments to the next address after each byte

is clocked.

When operating in Byte mode (IOCON.SEQOP = 1),

the MCP23X08 does not increment its address

counter after each byte during the data transfer. This

gives the ability to continually read the same address

by providing extra clocks (without additional control

bytes). This is useful for polling the GPIO register for

data changes.

1.3.2 I2C™ INTERFACE

1.3.2.1 I2C Write Operation

The I2C Write operation includes the control byte and

Figure 1-1. This sequence is followed by eight bits of

data from the master and an Acknowledge (ACK) from

the MCP23008. The operation is ended with a STOP

or RESTART condition being generated by the master.

Data is written to the MCP23008 after every byte

transfer. If a STOP or RESTART condition is

generated during a data transfer, the data will not be

written to the MCP23008.

Byte writes and sequential writes are both supported

by the MCP23008. The MCP23008 increments its

address counter after each ACK during the data

transfer.

1.3.2.2 I2C Read Operation

The I2C Read operation includes the control byte

sequence, as shown in the bottom of Figure 1-1. This

sequence is followed by another control byte (includ-

ing the START condition and ACK) with the R/W bit

equal to a logic 1 (R/W = 1). The MCP23008 then

transmits the data contained in the addressed register.

The sequence is ended with the master generating a

STOP or RESTART condition.

1.3.2.3 I2C Sequential Write/Read

For sequential operations (Write or Read), instead of

transmitting a STOP or RESTART condition after the

data transfer, the master clocks the next byte pointed to

by the address pointer (see Section 1.3.1 “Sequential

Operation Bit” for details regarding sequential

operation control).

The sequence ends with the master sending a STOP or

RESTART condition.

The MCP23008 address pointer will roll over to

address zero after reaching the last register address.

Refer to Figure 1-1.

1.3.3 SPI INTERFACE

1.3.3.1 SPI Write Operation

The SPI Write operation is started by lowering CS. The

Write command (slave address with R/W bit cleared) is

then clocked into the device. The opcode is followed by

an address and at least one data byte.

1.3.3.2 SPI Read Operation

The SPI Read operation is started by lowering CS. The

SPI read command (slave address with R/W bit set) is

then clocked into the device. The opcode is followed by

an address, with at least one data byte being clocked

out of the device.

1.3.3.3 SPI Sequential Write/Read

For sequential operations, instead of deselecting the

device by raising CS, the master clocks the next byte

pointed to by the address pointer.

The sequence ends by the raising of CS.

The MCP23S08 address pointer will roll over to

address zero after reaching the last register address.

1.4 Hardware Address Decoder

The hardware address pins are used to determine the

device address. To address a device, the correspond-

ing address bits in the control byte must match the pin

state.

• MCP23008 has address pins A2, A1 and A0.

• MCP23S08 has address pins A1 and A0.

The pins must be biased externally.

1.4.1 ADDRESSING I2C DEVICES

(MCP23008)

The MCP23008 is a slave I2C device that supports 7-bit

slave addressing, with the read/write bit filling out the

control byte. The slave address contains four fixed bits

and three user-defined hardware address bits (pins A2,

A1 and A0). Figure 1-2 shows the control byte format.

1.4.2 ADDRESSING SPI DEVICES

(MCP23S08)

The MCP23S08 is a slave SPI device. The slave

address contains five fixed bits and two user-defined

hardware address bits (pins A1 and A0), with the read/

write bit filling out the control byte. Figure 1-3 shows

the control byte format.

1.5 GPIO Port

The GPIO module contains the data port (GPIO),

internal pull up resistors and the Output Latches

(OLAT).

Reading the GPIO register reads the value on the port.

Reading the OLAT register only reads the OLAT, not

the actual value on the port.

Writing to the GPIO register actually causes a write to

the OLAT. Writing to the OLAT register forces the

associated output drivers to drive to the level in OLAT.

Pins configured as inputs turn off the associated output

driver and put it in high-impedance.

1.6.3 INTERRUPT-ON-CHANGE

CONTROL (GPINTEN) REGISTER

The GPINTEN register controls the interrupt-on-

change feature for each pin.

If a bit is set, the corresponding pin is enabled for

interrupt-on-change. The DEFVAL and INTCON

registers must also be configured if any pins are

enabled for interrupt-on-change.

DEFVAL register. If enabled (via GPINTEN and

INTCON) to compare against the DEFVAL register, an

opposite value on the associated pin will cause an

interrupt to occur.

1.6.5 INTERRUPT CONTROL (INTCON)

The INTCON register controls how the associated pin

value is compared for the interrupt-on-change feature.

If a bit is set, the corresponding I/O pin is compared

against the associated bit in the DEFVAL register. If a

bit value is clear, the corresponding I/O pin is compared

against the previous value.

MCP23008/MCP23S08

1.6.6 CONFIGURATION (IOCON)

The IOCON register contains several bits for

configuring the device:

• The Sequential Operation (SEQOP) controls the

incrementing function of the address pointer. If the

address pointer is disabled, the address pointer

does not automatically increment after each byte

is clocked during a serial transfer. This feature is

useful when it is desired to continuously poll

(read) or modify (write) a register.

• The Slew Rate (DISSLW) bit controls the slew

rate function on the SDA pin. If enabled, the SDA

slew rate will be controlled when driving from a

high to a low.

• The Hardware Address Enable (HAEN) control bit

enables/disables the hardware address pins (A1,

A0) on the MCP23S08. This bit is not used on the

MCP23008. The address pins are always enabled

on the MCP23008.

• The Open-Drain (ODR) control bit enables/

disables the INT pin for open-drain configuration.

• The Interrupt Polarity (INTPOL) control bit sets

the polarity of the INT pin. This bit is functional

only when the ODR bit is cleared, configuring the

INT pin as active push-pull.

1.6.7 PULL-UP RESISTOR

CONFIGURATION (GPPU)

The GPPU register controls the pull-up resistors for the

port pins. If a bit is set and the corresponding pin is

configured as an input, the corresponding port pin is

internally pulled up with a 100 kΩ resistor.

<7:0>.

1 = Pull-up enabled.

0 = Pull-up disabled.

MCP23008/MCP23S08

1.6.8 INTERRUPT FLAG (INTF)

The INTF register reflects the interrupt condition on the

port pins of any pin that is enabled for interrupts via the

GPINTEN register. A ‘set’ bit indicates that the

associated pin caused the interrupt.

This register is ‘read-only’. Writes to this register will be

ignored.

Note: INTF will always reflect the pin(s) that

have an interrupt condition. For example,

one pin causes an interrupt to occur and is

captured in INTCAP and INF. If before

clearing the interrupt another pin changes,

which would normally cause an interrupt, it

will be reflected in INTF, but not INTCAP.

1.6.9 INTERRUPT CAPTURE (INTCAP)

The INTCAP register captures the GPIO port value at

the time the interrupt occurred. The register is ‘read-

only’ and is updated only when an interrupt occurs. The

1.7 Interrupt Logic

The interrupt output pin will activate if an internal

interrupt occurs. The interrupt block is configured by

the following registers:

• GPINTEN – enables the individual inputs

• DEFVAL – holds the values that are compared

against the associated input port values

• INTCON – controls if the input values are

compared against DEFVAL or the previous values

on the port

• IOCON (ODR and INPOL) – configures the INT

pin as push-pull, open-drain and active-level

Only pins configured as inputs can cause interrupts.

Pins configured as outputs have no affect on INT.

Interrupt activity on the port will cause the port value to

be captured and copied into INTCAP. The interrupt will

remain active until the INTCAP or GPIO register is

read. Writing to these registers will not affect the

interrupt.

The first interrupt event will cause the port contents to

be copied into the INTCAP register. Subsequent

interrupt conditions on the port will not cause an

interrupt to occur as long as the interrupt is not cleared

by a read of INTCAP or GPIO.

1.7.1 INTERRUPT CONDITIONS

There are two possible configurations to cause

interrupts (configured via INTCON):

1. Pins configured for interrupt-on-pin-change

will cause an interrupt to occur if a pin changes

to the opposite state. The default state is reset

after an interrupt occurs. For example, an

interrupt occurs by an input changing from 1 to

0. The new initial state for the pin is a logic 0.

2. Pins configured for interrupt-on-change from

the corresponding input pin differs from the

long as the condition exists, regardless if the

INTAP or GPIO is read.

See Figure 1-6 and Figure 1-7 for more information on

interrupt operations.

Note the following details of the code protection feature on Microchip devices:

• Microchip products meet the specification contained in their particular Microchip Data Sheet.

• Microchip believes that its family of products is one of the most secure families of its kind on the market today, when used in the

intended manner and under normal conditions.

• There are dishonest and possibly illegal methods used to breach the code protection feature. All of these methods, to our

knowledge, require using the Microchip products in a manner outside the operating specifications contained in Microchip’s Data

Sheets. Most likely, the person doing so is engaged in theft of intellectual property.

• Microchip is willing to work with the customer who is concerned about the integrity of their code.

• Neither Microchip nor any other semiconductor manufacturer can guarantee the security of their code. Code protection does not

mean that we are guaranteeing the product as “unbreakable.”

Code protection is constantly evolving. We at Microchip are committed to continuously improving the code protection features of our

products. Attempts to break Microchip’s code protection feature may be a violation of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. If such acts

allow unauthorized access to your software or other copyrighted work, you may have a right to sue for relief under that Act.

Microchip received ISO/TS-16949:2002 certification for its worldwide

headquarters, design and wafer fabrication facilities in Chandler and

Tempe, Arizona; Gresham, Oregon and design centers in California

and India. The Company’s quality system processes and procedures

are for its PIC® MCUs and dsPIC® DSCs, KEELOQ® code hopping

devices, Serial EEPROMs, microperipherals, nonvolatile memory and

analog products. In addition, Microchip’s quality system for the design

and manufacture of development systems is ISO 9001:2000 certified.
