I agree since this is a tight time frame project. I am winding up
using the 16 bit version of the parts which will give me 32 bits of
I/O and I can connect the interrupts to the processor to determine
when an input port changes. This project has 30 inputs and at approx.
8MHz clock will give me just enought time to collect the port values
and perform procedure in under 26us.
Rob's suggestion on the other hand is a cheaper way of doing this,
but I will not have the time to actually test the idea until the next
project (which is after this one).
Thanks to both of you for your help.
regards,
Charles

Plus, you can configure the MCP23S08 pins as either input or output,
get interrupt-on-change, set the polarity of the 'normal' state and a
bunch of other things. It is a really nice chip.

Hi Rob, thanks for the seuggestion and link. I looked at that at one
time as a cheap expansion for the 2106 and even ordered some parts to
play with but haven't had time to try it. Time is critical on this
project, so I was going to go the safe route and use the Microchip
version for now.

yes, a 74HC595 (serial in, parallel/serial out shift register) as an 8 bit
output expander is used to control a 7-segment LED at the Embedded Artists
prototype board: http://www.embeddedartists.com/products/boards/prototype.php, schematics
can be found from that page.

The only way I got Master mode working properly was to pullup SSEL1.

Have you worked with the 2138 spi? Do you "still" need to pull the
SPI
slave input high to make it work like the 2106?

Yes, I used the Microchip MCP23S08. It worked just fine as 8 inputs.
I didn't actually code the interrupt but I did wire it.

Hello group,
Hope you all had a great holiday.
I have a LPC2106 design that turns out to need more input lines then
the 2106 has. Has any one have any luck with extending the I/O of the
2106 with the SPI bus?
