PCA9673 Remote 16-bit IO expan

The PCA9673 provides general purpose remote I/O expansion for most microcontrollerfamilies via the two-line bidirectional bus (I2C-bus) and is a part of the Fast-mode Plusfamily.The PCA9673 is a drop in upgrade for the PCF8575 providing higher Fast-mode Plus(Fm+) I2C-bus speeds (1 MHz versus 400 kHz) so that the output can support PWMdimming of LEDs, higher I2C-bus drive (30 mA versus 3 mA) so that many more devicescan be on the bus without the need for bus buffers, higher total package sink capacity(400 mA versus 100 mA) that supports having all 25 mA LEDs on at the same time andmore device addresses (16 versus 8) are available to allow many more devices on the buswithout address conflicts.
