# AW9523B I/O expander A driver for the `AW9523B` 16-bit I2C-bus I/O expander with LED driver, by Awinic. Exposes both 8-bit ports (P0/P1) as 16 GPIO pins (0-15, port 0 = pins 0-7, port 1 = pins 8-15) via the `GPIO_CONTROLLER_TYPE` API. P0 is switched to push-pull mode on start (every known board wiring for this chip expects push-pull output, not the open-drain default). It does not support pull-up/down resistors, high-impedance outputs, or interrupts; requesting those returns `ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED`. LED driver functionality is not implemented.
