DIGITAL_IO: Overview

The DIGITAL_IO APP provides the following functionalities:

• Configure and control a port pin as general purpose Input or Input/Output.
• Controls various IO pad characteristics.
• Connection of port pin to other peripherals (using the DAVE™ HW Signal Connections).

Figure 1 Figure 2

The red marked registers shown in above figures are modified by the DIGITAL_IO APP.

Input Operation :
Reads actual voltage level at the port pin and it can be inverted optionally.

• Configures internal weak pull-up or pull down devices in the pad.
• Configures input pad hysteresis.

Input/Output Operation :
The output driver is activated and drives the value supplied through the output multiplexer to the port pin.

• Configures between open-drain and push-pull.
• Configures pad driver strength.
• Please refer APP Configuration Parameters section for more information.

Hardware Controlled operation :
The pin will be controlled by the peripheral to which it is connected.

• Configures of HWSEL bitfield which selects the peripheral that drives the pin.
• Configures pad driver strength.
• Configures input pad hysteresis.
• Configures pin input data polarity.

Additionally DIGITAL_IO APP provides APIs to configure port pin.

Figure 3, shows how the APP is structured in DAVE™. XMC controllers provide the PORT module to configure pin. The LLD layer provides abstraction for these hardware modules. The DIGITAL_IO APP uses XMC_GPIO LLDs for the functionality.

Note:This APP is intended to configure digital I/O ports, however for analog I/O operation refer ANALOG_IO APP.
