Hi Once upon a time I asked: " [...] (serial-in/parallel-out), a latch and a driver for the 7 segments display. I cannot found all of that in just one chip." I found the PCF8574A: -Low Standby Current Consumption of 10 5A Maximum -I2C to Parallel Port Expander -Open-Drain Interrupt Output -Compatible With Most Microcontrollers -Latched Outputs With High Current Drive Capability for Directly Driving LEDs -Latch-Up Performance Exceeds 100 mA Per ESD 78, Class II seems to be a nice chip. Cheers, Diego. -- http://www.piclist.com hint: To leave the PICList mailto:piclist-unsubscribe-request@mitvma.mit.edu
