TCA6416ARTWR from Texas Instruments, in a WQFN-24-EP(4x4). Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
22 INT output Active-low interrupt output. Open-drain; connect to VCCI or VCCP through a pull-up resistor. Asserted when a P-port input changes state.
23 VCCI power_in Supply voltage for the I2C-bus side (1.65 V to 5.5 V). Connect directly to the supply voltage of the external I2C controller.
24 RESET input Active-low reset input. Connect to VCCI or VCCP through a pull-up resistor if no active connection is used. Resets registers to default power-on values.
1 P00 bidirectional P-port 0 bit 0. Push-pull I/O structure. Configured as an input at power-on. Referenced to VCCP (1.65 V to 5.5 V).
2 P01 bidirectional P-port 0 bit 1. Push-pull I/O structure. Configured as an input at power-on.
3 P02 bidirectional P-port 0 bit 2. Push-pull I/O structure. Configured as an input at power-on.
4 P03 bidirectional P-port 0 bit 3. Push-pull I/O structure. Configured as an input at power-on.
5 P04 bidirectional P-port 0 bit 4. Push-pull I/O structure. Configured as an input at power-on.
6 P05 bidirectional P-port 0 bit 5. Push-pull I/O structure. Configured as an input at power-on.
7 P06 bidirectional P-port 0 bit 6. Push-pull I/O structure. Configured as an input at power-on.
8 P07 bidirectional P-port 0 bit 7. Push-pull I/O structure. Configured as an input at power-on.
9 GND power_in Ground reference for the device (both VCCI and VCCP domains).
10 P10 bidirectional P-port 1 bit 0. Push-pull I/O structure. Configured as an input at power-on.
11 P11 bidirectional P-port 1 bit 1. Push-pull I/O structure. Configured as an input at power-on.
12 P12 bidirectional P-port 1 bit 2. Push-pull I/O structure. Configured as an input at power-on.
13 P13 bidirectional P-port 1 bit 3. Push-pull I/O structure. Configured as an input at power-on.
14 P14 bidirectional P-port 1 bit 4. Push-pull I/O structure. Configured as an input at power-on.
15 P15 bidirectional P-port 1 bit 5. Push-pull I/O structure. Configured as an input at power-on.
16 P16 bidirectional P-port 1 bit 6. Push-pull I/O structure. Configured as an input at power-on.
17 P17 bidirectional P-port 1 bit 7. Push-pull I/O structure. Configured as an input at power-on.
18 ADDR input I2C slave-address select input. Connect directly to VCCP or GND to select one of two addresses, allowing two TCA6416A devices on the same bus.
19 SCL input I2C/SMBus serial clock input. Connect to VCCI through a pull-up resistor. Supports 100 kHz standard mode and 400 kHz fast mode.
20 SDA bidirectional I2C/SMBus serial data line. Open-drain; connect to VCCI through a pull-up resistor.
21 VCCP power_in Supply voltage for the P-port I/O side of the TCA6416A (1.65 V to 5.5 V). Independent from VCCI to allow voltage-level translation.
25 Thermal Pad passive Exposed thermal/die pad on the underside of the WQFN package. Connect to GND for best thermal performance.

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
tca6416artwr.step 277 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
tca6416artwr-etched.step 2.2 MB You want the part with TCA6416ARTWR already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 581 faces against 158 in the bare model. It survives export, section views, and rendering in any CAD tool, and it drops straight into KiCad or Fusion with no extra setup.

Provenance

Data extracted from the manufacturer datasheet, not a distributor listing:
