Thanks! I considered the dual-clock pin idea. Have you done this? I just can not affort to have anything get wiggled on the non-clocked port expanders.
How would you use a CE for the 23016s?
I have looked again on the web but have not found any 4 channel addressing port expanders! You would think one would be made by someone?
