Frequently Asked Questions
How many GPIO pins does the MCP23S18 add to a host microcontroller via SPI?
The MCP23S18 provides 16 GPIO pins organized as two independent 8-bit ports, all accessible over a single SPI bus at up to 10 MHz clock frequency, greatly expanding I/O capability without adding more microcontroller pins.
Can multiple MCP23S18 devices share the same SPI bus without address conflicts?
Yes. The MCP23S18 supports hardware address selection via 3 address pins, allowing up to 8 devices to coexist on the same SPI bus, and each device is independently selectable using a dedicated chip-select line.
What interrupt capabilities does MCP23S18 offer for event-driven embedded designs?
The MCP23S18 supports interrupt-on-change for all 16 I/O pins with configurable open-drain interrupt outputs rated at 5 V logic. Each port has its own interrupt pin, enabling the host MCU to detect pin state changes without polling.
