The DS4550 is a 9-bit, nonvolatile (NV) I/O expander
with 64 bytes of NV user memory controlled by either
an I²C-compatible serial interface or an IEEE® 1149.1
JTAG port. The DS4550 offers a digitally programmable
alternative to hardware jumpers and mechanical
switches that are being used to control digital logic
nodes. Each I/O pin is independently configurable. The
outputs are open drain with selectable pullups. Each
output has the ability to sink up to 16mA, and since the
device is NV, it powers up in the desired state allowing
it to control digital logic inputs immediately on powerup
without having to wait for the host CPU to initiate
control.
