IOstrich
200px
This Page
Function: Provide 40 GPIOs, accessible via I2C.
Key Chips: NXP PCA9505
External Ports: 40x GPIO
Required Pins: A4 (I2C SDA), A5 (I2C SCL)
Optional Pins: D2, D3 (Interrupts)

The IOstrich will provide 40 GPIOs, based on the HackTrack Shield. Up to 8 of these shields can (theoretically) be stacked on one Arduino, giving a total of 320 added-on GPIOs. The shield can be used in either 3.3v or 5v mode, and is 5v-tolerant in both modes.
