PORTA Configuration
The ADIR and AMODE bits together provide independent configuration of each pin.
Each column in this table denotes one of the possible configurations for each bit. If
there is no entry in one of the columns (for example,
PORTA7>AMODE=1>ADIR=0), the bit
cannot be used in that configuration.
D07:00 R/W ADATA 0 PORTA data register
Used when a PORTA bit is configured to operate in
GPIO mode.
Reading the ADATA field provides the current
state of the GPIO signal, regardless of its
configuration mode.
Writing the ADATA field defines the current
state of the GPIO signal when the signal is
defined to operate in GPIO output mode.
Writing the ADATA field when configured in
GPIO input mode or special function mode has
no effect.
Each bit in the ADATA field corresponds to one of
the PORTA bits; D07 controls PORTA7, D06
controls PORTA6, and so on.
