PCA9553
4-bit I2C-bus LED driver with programmable blink rates
Rev. 06 — 29 December 2008
Product data sheet
1. General description
The PCA9553 LED blinker blinks LEDs in I2C-bus and SMBus applications where it is
necessary to limit bus traffic or free up the I2C-bus master's (MCU, MPU, DSP, chip set,
etc.) timer. The uniqueness of this device is the internal oscillator with two programmable
blink rates. To blink LEDs using normal I/O expanders like the PCF8574 or PCA9554, the
bus master must send repeated commands to turn the LED on and off. This greatly
increases the amount of traffic on the I2C-bus and uses up one of the master's timers. The
PCA9553 LED blinker instead requires only the initial set-up command to program
BLINK RATE 1 and BLINK RATE 2 (i.e., the frequency and duty cycle). From then on, only
one command from the bus master is required to turn each individual open-drain output
ON, OFF, or to cycle at BLINK RATE 1 or BLINK RATE 2. Maximum output sink current is
25 mA per bit and 100 mA per package.
Any bits not used for controlling the LEDs can be used for General Purpose Parallel
Input/Output (GPIO) expansion.
Power-On Reset (POR) initializes the registers to their default state, all zeroes, causing
the bits to be set HIGH (LED off).
Due to pin limitations, the PCA9553 is not featured with hardware address pins. The
PCA9553/01 and the PCA9553/02 have different fixed I2C-bus addresses allowing
operation of both on the same bus.

HVSON8 package die supply ground is connected to both VSS pin and exposed center pad. VSS pin must
be connected to supply ground for proper device operation. For enhanced thermal, electrical, and board
level performance, the exposed pad needs to be soldered to the board using a corresponding thermal pad
on the board and for proper heat conduction through the board, thermal vias need to be incorporated in the
PCB in the thermal pad region.

Control register
The lowest 3 bits are used as a pointer to determine which register will be accessed.
If the Auto-Increment flag is set, the three low order bits of the Control register are
automatically incremented after a read or write. This allows the user to program the
registers sequentially. The contents of these bits will rollover to ‘000’ after the last register
is accessed.
When the Auto-Increment flag is set (AI = 1) and a read sequence is initiated, the
sequence must start by reading a register different from ‘0’ (B2 B1 B0 ≠ 0 0 0).
Only the 3 least significant bits are affected by the AI flag.
Unused bits must be programmed with zeroes.

7.4 Pins used as general purpose I/Os
LED pins not used to control LEDs can be used as general purpose I/Os.
For use as input: Set LEDn to high-impedance (01) and then read the pin state via the
Input register.
For use as output: Connect external pull-up resistor to the pin and size it according to the
DC recommended operating characteristics. LED output pin is HIGH when the output is
programmed as high-impedance, and LOW when the output is programmed LOW through
the ‘LED selector’ register. The output can be pulse-width controlled when PWM0 or
PWM1 are used.
7.5 Power-on reset
When power is applied to VDD, an internal Power-On Reset (POR) holds the PCA9553 in
a reset condition until VDD has reached VPOR. At that point, the reset condition is released
and the PCA9553 registers are initialized to their default states, with all outputs in the OFF
state. Thereafter, VDD must be lowered below 0.2 V to reset the device.
8. Characteristics of the I2C-bus
The I2C-bus is for 2-way, 2-line communication between different ICs or modules. The two
lines are a serial data line (SDA) and a serial clock line (SCL). Both lines must be
connected to a positive supply via a pull-up resistor when connected to the output stages
of a device. Data transfer may be initiated only when the bus is not busy.
8.1 Bit transfer
One data bit is transferred during each clock pulse. The data on the SDA line must remain
stable during the HIGH period of the clock pulse as changes in the data line at this time
will be interpreted as control signals (see Figure 8).

8.1.1 START and STOP conditions
Both data and clock lines remain HIGH when the bus is not busy. A HIGH-to-LOW
transition of the data line while the clock is HIGH is defined as the START condition (S). A
LOW-to-HIGH transition of the data line while the clock is HIGH is defined as the STOP
condition (P) (see Figure 9).

8.2 System configuration
A device generating a message is a ‘transmitter’; a device receiving is the ‘receiver’. The
device that controls the message is the ‘master’ and the devices which are controlled by
the master are the ‘slaves’ (see Figure 10).

8.3 Acknowledge
The number of data bytes transferred between the START and the STOP conditions from
transmitter to receiver is not limited. Each byte of eight bits is followed by one
acknowledge bit. The acknowledge bit is a HIGH level put on the bus by the transmitter,
whereas the master generates an extra acknowledge related clock pulse.
A slave receiver which is addressed must generate an acknowledge after the reception of
each byte. Also a master must generate an acknowledge after the reception of each byte
that has been clocked out of the slave transmitter. The device that acknowledges has to
pull down the SDA line during the acknowledge clock pulse, so that the SDA line is stable
LOW during the HIGH period of the acknowledge related clock pulse; set-up time and hold
time must be taken into account.
A master receiver must signal an end of data to the transmitter by not generating an
acknowledge on the last byte that has been clocked out of the slave. In this event, the
transmitter must leave the data line HIGH to enable the master to generate a STOP
condition.

9.1 Minimizing IDD when the I/Os are used to control LEDs
When the I/Os are used to control LEDs, they are normally connected to VDD through a
resistor as shown in Figure 15. Since the LED acts as a diode, when the LED is off the I/O
VI is about 1.2 V less than VDD. The supply current, IDD, increases as VI becomes lower
than VDD and is specified as ∆IDD in Table 13 “Static characteristics”.
Designs needing to minimize current consumption, such as battery power applications,
should consider maintaining the I/O pins greater than or equal to VDD when the LED is off.
Figure 16 shows a high value resistor in parallel with the LED. Figure 17 shows VDD less
than the LED supply voltage by at least 1.2 V. Both of these methods maintain the I/O VI at
or above VDD and prevents additional supply current consumption when the LED is off.

15. Handling information
All input and output pins are protected against ElectroStatic Discharge (ESD) under
normal handling. When handling ensure that the appropriate precautions are taken as
described in JESD625-A or equivalent standards.
16. Soldering of SMD packages
This text provides a very brief insight into a complex technology. A more in-depth account
of soldering ICs can be found in Application Note AN10365 “Surface mount reflow
soldering description”.
16.1 Introduction to soldering
Soldering is one of the most common methods through which packages are attached to
Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs), to form electrical circuits. The soldered joint provides both
the mechanical and the electrical connection. There is no single soldering method that is
ideal for all IC packages. Wave soldering is often preferred when through-hole and
Surface Mount Devices (SMDs) are mixed on one printed wiring board; however, it is not
suitable for fine pitch SMDs. Reflow soldering is ideal for the small pitches and high
densities that come with increased miniaturization.
16.2 Wave and reflow soldering
Wave soldering is a joining technology in which the joints are made by solder coming from
a standing wave of liquid solder. The wave soldering process is suitable for the following:
• Through-hole components
• Leaded or leadless SMDs, which are glued to the surface of the printed circuit board
Not all SMDs can be wave soldered. Packages with solder balls, and some leadless
packages which have solder lands underneath the body, cannot be wave soldered. Also,
leaded SMDs with leads having a pitch smaller than ~0.6 mm cannot be wave soldered,
due to an increased probability of bridging.
The reflow soldering process involves applying solder paste to a board, followed by
component placement and exposure to a temperature profile. Leaded packages,
packages with solder balls, and leadless packages are all reflow solderable.
Key characteristics in both wave and reflow soldering are:
•
•
•
•
•
•
Board specifications, including the board finish, solder masks and vias
Package footprints, including solder thieves and orientation
The moisture sensitivity level of the packages
Package placement
Inspection and repair
Lead-free soldering versus SnPb soldering
16.3 Wave soldering
Key characteristics in wave soldering are:

• Process issues, such as application of adhesive and flux, clinching of leads, board
transport, the solder wave parameters, and the time during which components are
exposed to the wave
• Solder bath specifications, including temperature and impurities
16.4 Reflow soldering
Key characteristics in reflow soldering are:
• Lead-free versus SnPb soldering; note that a lead-free reflow process usually leads to
higher minimum peak temperatures (see Figure 26) than a SnPb process, thus
reducing the process window
• Solder paste printing issues including smearing, release, and adjusting the process
window for a mix of large and small components on one board
• Reflow temperature profile; this profile includes preheat, reflow (in which the board is
heated to the peak temperature) and cooling down. It is imperative that the peak
temperature is high enough for the solder to make reliable solder joints (a solder paste
characteristic). In addition, the peak temperature must be low enough that the
packages and/or boards are not damaged. The peak temperature of the package
depends on package thickness and volume and is classified in accordance with
Table 15 and 16

Moisture sensitivity precautions, as indicated on the packing, must be respected at all
times.
Studies have shown that small packages reach higher temperatures during reflow
soldering, see Figure 26.
