Specification

The IO-EXP-ADAPTER-EVM has 10 unique IC footprints that accommodate several package types for TI's I2C / SPI IO expander portfolio. The EVM can break away into four separate smaller PCBs as cost-optimized, quick applications for testing and debug purposes.

The following figure shows a PCB layout for the PW/DB package type. Pin 1 is always located in the top-left column. Both pins in the yellow box are connected to pin 1 of the IC. The next two pins in the row 2 correspond to pin 2 of the IC and so on. The order of pins goes in counter-clockwise fashion.
