I²C interface and supply flexibility for portable designs
The MAX7359ETG+T is a specialized interface IC from Analog Devices that communicates over an I²C bus, making it a straightforward add-on to any host processor with two free I/O pins for the clock and data lines. Target applications include cell phones, PDAs, and media players — anything with a keypad or button matrix that needs to be scanned without loading the main processor.
Active lifecycle and compliance
RoHS3 compliant, which means it meets the current EU restriction on hazardous substances — no lead, mercury, cadmium, or the other six substances above the threshold limits.
