TCA8418RTWR Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The TCA8418RTWR from Texas Instruments is a specialized interface IC designed for keypad scanning applications. It operates within a wide voltage range of 1.65V to 3.6V and features 18 general-purpose input/output (GPIO) pins capable of supporting up to 80 keys. This device utilizes an I2C/SMBus interface, supporting a 1MHz Fast Mode Plus bus.

 

Key features include a low standby current of 3 µA, an integrated debounce time of 50 µs, and a 10-byte FIFO buffer to store key press and release events. It also provides an open-drain active-low interrupt output to signal key events. The TCA8418RTWR includes integrated ESD protection exceeding 2000V HBM and 1000V CDM on its GPIO pins.

 

This IC is supplied in a 24-WQFN (4x4) package suitable for surface mounting. Its applications include PDAs, portable audio/video devices, and smartphones where efficient and reliable keypad input is required. The device operates across a temperature range of -40°C to 85°C.
