MAX7349ATG+T

The MAX7349ATG+T is an integrated circuit (IC) component that belongs to the MAX7349 series of devices. It is a 12-channel keyboard scanner IC that allows easy input interface for applications requiring multiple push buttons, switches, or digital sensors. Some of the key features of the MAX7349ATG+T are as follows: 1. Keyboard Scanning: The IC can scan up to 12 push-button switches or keypads using a matrix-based scanning technique. It supports up to 8 rows and 10 columns of a switch matrix configuration. 2. Input Debouncing: It incorporates a debouncing function that eliminates contact bouncing effects and ensures reliable and clean signal inputs. This helps to avoid falsely triggered events caused by switch bouncing. 3. Low Power Consumption: The IC operates at a low power supply voltage range of 1.8V to 5.5V, making it suitable for battery-powered applications with a focus on energy efficiency. 4. Integrated LED Drivers: It features integrated LED drivers that can drive up to 16 LEDs for indicator purposes. This eliminates the need for additional external devices for driving LEDs, simplifying the circuit design. 5. SPI Interface: The IC communicates with the external microcontroller or host device through a Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI). This interface allows bi-directional data exchange and configuration control
