PORTF and DDRF Registers
PORTF is an 8-bit wide bi-directional port. The corre-
sponding data direction register is DDRF. A '1' in DDRF
con铿乬ures the corresponding port pin as an input. A '0'
in the DDRF register con铿乬ures the corresponding port
pin as an output. Reading PORTF reads the status of
the pins, whereas writing to them will write to the
respective port latch.
All eight bits of PORTF are multiplexed with 8 of the 12
channels of the 10-bit A/D converter.
Upon reset the entire Port is automatically con铿乬ured
as analog inputs, and must be con铿乬ured in software to
be a digital I/O.
Example 10-6 shows an instruction sequence to initial-
ize PORTF. The Bank Select Register (BSR) must be
selected to Bank 5 for the port to be initialized. The fol-
lowing example uses the
MOVLB
instruction to load the
BSR register for bank selection.
