W83601G

Specialized Overview

The W83601G is a general-purpose I/O IC manufactured by Nuvoton Technology Corporation, designed for SMBus interface communication. It provides fifteen dedicated GPIO pins to expand system connectivity. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 5 V minimum to 5 V maximum, indicating a fixed 5 V logic level requirement. It features an interrupt output capability to signal state changes to the host controller. The component is available in an SSOP-20 surface-mount package and supports SMD/SMT installation standards.

Specialized Feature Summary

• Provides fifteen general-purpose input/output pins for system expansion
• Supports SMBus serial interface protocol for communication
• Includes interrupt output functionality for event signaling

Specialized Applications

• General purpose I/O expansion in embedded systems
• SMBus compatible peripheral control interfaces
• Industrial control systems requiring additional digital I/O

Specialized Procurement Notes

Verify current production status directly with Nuvoton Technology Corporation as lifecycle information may be subject to change. Confirm availability through authorized distributors or official manufacturer channels prior to design finalization. Ensure compatibility with 5 V power supplies and SMBus protocols during integration planning.

Specialized Selection Notes

Select this component when fifteen additional GPIO pins are required alongside SMBus connectivity. Verify that the target system operates at 5 V logic levels, as the device does not support lower voltage ranges. Consider the SSOP-20 package dimensions for PCB layout constraints and ensure interrupt handling capabilities align with host controller requirements.

Specialized Part Context

The W83601G belongs to Nuvoton's interface I/O expander product line. It serves as a specialized solution for adding digital I/O capacity to systems utilizing SMBus communication. This component complements microcontrollers or processors that have limited available pins while maintaining standard serial bus compatibility.

Specialized Replacement Considerations

Consult Nuvoton official documentation for verified substitute part numbers. No public cross-reference data is available for direct replacement identification.
