13. I/O-Ports

13.1

Overview

All AVR ports have true Read-Modify-Write functionality when used as general digital I/O ports.

This means that the direction of one port pin can be changed without unintentionally changing

the direction of any other pin with the SBI and CBI instructions. The same applies when chang-

ing drive value (if configured as output) or enabling/disabling of pull-up resistors (if configured as

input). Each output buffer has symmetrical drive characteristics with both high sink and source

capability. Port B has a higher pin driver strength than the other ports, but all the pin drivers are

strong enough to drive LED displays directly. All port pins have individually selectable pull-up

resistors with a supply-voltage invariant resistance. All I/O pins have protection diodes to both

CC and Ground as indicated in Figure 13-1. Refer to ”Electrical Characteristics” on page 304 for

a complete list of parameters. If exceeding the pin voltage “Absolute Maximum Ratings”, result-

ing currents can harm the device if not limited accordingly.

Figure 13-1. I/O Pin Equivalent Schematic

All registers and bit references in this section are written in general form. A lower case “x” repre-

sents the numbering letter for the port, and a lower case “n” represents the bit number. However,

when using the register or bit defines in a program, the precise form must be used. For example,

PORTB3 for bit no. 3 in Port B, here documented generally as PORTxn. The physical I/O Regis-

ters and bit locations are listed in ”Register Description” on page 85.

Three I/O memory address locations are allocated for each port, one each for the Data Register

– PORTx, Data Direction Register – DDRx, and the Port Input Pins – PINx. The Port Input Pins

I/O location is read only, while the Data Register and the Data Direction Register are read/write.

However, writing a logic one to a bit in the PINx Register, will result in a toggle in the correspond-

ing bit in the Data Register. In addition, the Pull-up Disable – PUD bit in MCUCR disables the

pull-up function for all pins in all ports when set.

Using the I/O port as General Digital I/O is described in ”Ports as General Digital I/O” on page

64. Most port pins are multiplexed with alternate functions for the peripheral features on the

device. How each alternate function interferes with the port pin is described in ”Alternate Port

Logic
