 | | Agile I/O GPIO Expander Family - The NXP Semiconductors family of Low Voltage GPIO with Agile I/O expands the two wires of the I²C-bus into 8 or 16 general purpose I/O pins that can interface to keyboards, switches, LEDs, displays or even stepping motors – saving valuable pins on the microprocessor or custom ASIC. The family has eight members with Agile I/O and eight members without. The devices that do not implement Agile I/O are 100% compatible with industry-standard devices, giving users supply alternatives and the advantage of second sources. The members of the Low Voltage GPIO family are differentiated by the number of I/O pins: 8 or 16.

Chip Outpost is a new excess inventory distribution solution powered by Digi-Key that allows Digi-Key customers to purchase excess, discontinued, and obsolete products from Digi-Key's authorized manufacturers. Excess inventory may include, without limitation excess electronic components that are provided directly from product suppliers or as part of a supplier-authorized channel return from a franchised distributor. No product is obtained directly from customers or from other suspect sources to minimize the potential of receiving counterfeit or non-supplier authorized product. Products purchased through the Digi-Key site are sold as-is and on an as-available basis. All Chip Outpost product sales are final, and all products are non-cancellable/non-returnable.

Looking for a microcontroller with that little added extra, then NXP’s LPC4000 family of Cortex-M4 microcontrollers could well be your answer. Further expanding NXP’s Cortex-M continuum, they bring high-performance signal processing capabilities within the reach of the typical microcontroller programmer.
The Cortex-M4 processor combines the benefits of a microcontroller – integrated interrupt control, low power modes, low cost debug and ease of use – with high performance digital signal processing features such as single-cycle MAC, single instruction multiple data (SIMD) techniques, saturating arithmetic, and a floating point unit.
Upwardly code compatible from existing Cortex-M3 and Cortex-M0 processors, these products are an ideal single-chip solution for applications such as motor control, power conversion, audio, and communications. In fact, any microcontroller application that could benefit from Digital Signal Processing (DSP), a Floating Point Unit (FPU), or special features like Serial GPIO (SGPIO) or a very large SRAM.
