Working Principles

The SX8655ICSTRT operates as an I/O expander by utilizing the I2C bus protocol. It communicates with a microcontroller or other digital devices through the SDA (Serial Data Line) and SCL (Serial Clock Line) pins. The microcontroller sends commands and data to the SX8655ICSTRT to configure the I/O pins as inputs or outputs, enable interrupt generation, and control the state of each pin.

When configured as inputs, the SX8655ICSTRT can read the logic level of external devices connected to its GPIO pins. When configured as outputs, it can drive external devices by setting the logic level of the corresponding GPIO pins.
