CAT9532 是一款 CMOS 器件，提供 16 位并行输入/输出端口扩展器，专为 LED 调光控制而优化。CAT9532 的输出可直接并行驱动 16 个 LED。每个 LED 可开启、关闭或闪烁。闪烁可选两种可编程频率。该器件为背光和混色应用中以 256 级亮度调光 LED 提供了简单的解决方案。CAT9532 适用于需要限制总线流量或释放总线主控定时器的 I2C 和 SMBus 兼容应用。

CAT9532 包含一个内部振荡器和两个驱动 LED 输出的 PWM 信号。用户可以对每个 PWM 信号的周期和占空比进行编程。使用初始设置命令对闪烁率 1 和闪烁率 2（频率和占空比）进行编程后，只需总线主控器发出一条命令，就能使每个漏极开路输出打开、关闭或以闪烁率 1 或闪烁率 2 循环。每个漏极开路 LED 输出的最大输出电流为 25 mA。所有 I/O 的总电流不得超过 200 mA。

The CAT9532 is a CMOS device that provides 16-bit parallel input/output port expander optimized for LED dimming control. The CAT9532 outputs can drive directly 16 LEDs in parallel. Each individual LED may be turned ON, OFF, or blinking at one of two programmable rates. The device provides a simple solution for dimming LEDs in 256 brightness steps for backlight and color mixing applications. The CAT9532 is suitable in I2C and SMBus compatible applications where it is necessary to limit the bus traffic or free-up the bus master's timer. The CAT9532 contains an internal oscillator and two PWM signals that drive the LED outputs. The user can program the period and duty cycle for each individual PWM signal. After the initial set-up command to program the Blink Rate 1 and Blink Rate 2 (frequency and duty cycle), only one command from the bus master is required to turn each individual open drain output ON, OFF, or cycle at Blink Rate 1 or Blink Rate 2. Each open drain LED output can provide a maximum output current of 25 mA. The total current sunk by all I/Os must not exceed 200 mA.
