Introduction

MCP23017 is a GPIO expander that runs on I2C. This page forms wiring and communication guide for MCP23017 on ESP8266.

Used components:

  • MCP23017

MCP23017 I2C Interface 16bit I/O Extension Module Pin Board IIC to GIPO Converter https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32883688022.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.5d3e4c4d6bMkco

  • ESP8266:

Wiring

Setting up ESP8266 for I2C pins is not necessary in this code. SCL and SDA pins as below:

Connecting pins between MCP23017 and ESP8266

MCP23017 <-- --> ESP8266
GND GND
VCC 3V
SCL D1 (GPIO5)
SDA D2 (GPIO4)

Code

Required libraries:

  • Wire
  • Adafruit_MCP23017
// MCP23017 Example: Slow key press reaction.
//
// Toggle LEDs and detect keypress.
//
// Example code showing slow reaction of 'button' 
// LED to keypress. Leading into why interrupts
// are useful (See next example).

#include <Wire.h>
#include <Adafruit_MCP23017.h>

#define MCP_LED1 7
#define MCP_INPUTPIN 8
#define MCP_LEDTOG1 11 

Adafruit_MCP23017 mcp;
  
void setup() {  
  mcp.begin();      // Default device address 0

  mcp.pinMode(MCP_LEDTOG1, OUTPUT);  // LED for blinking
  
  mcp.pinMode(MCP_LED1, OUTPUT);     // LED output for button
  
  mcp.digitalWrite(MCP_LED1, HIGH);  // default > LED turn on

  mcp.pinMode(MCP_INPUTPIN,INPUT);   // Button i/p to GND
  mcp.pullUp(MCP_INPUTPIN,HIGH);     // Puled high to ~100k
}
 
void loop() {

  // blinking led
  delay(300);
  mcp.digitalWrite(MCP_LEDTOG1, HIGH); 
  delay(300);
  mcp.digitalWrite(MCP_LEDTOG1, LOW); 
  
  
  
  // Transfer input pin state to LED1
  if (mcp.digitalRead(MCP_INPUTPIN)) {
     mcp.digitalWrite(MCP_LED1,HIGH);
  } else {
     mcp.digitalWrite(MCP_LED1,LOW);
  }
  
}
