Digital VFO I/O Expander Module

"For The G6LBQ Irwell HF Transceiver"

Welcome to part 5 of my blog post series covering the Digital VFO developed for use with my “Irwell HF Transceiver project”.

In this concluding article I present the I/O expander module which interfaces to the STM32 micro-controllers I2C bus, it's job is to extends the number of digital outputs available and provide switched logic outputs to drive my BPF and LPF transceiver modules.
