CAUTION
: The alternate function must not be ac-
tivated as long as the pin is configured as input
with interrupt, in order to avoid generating spurious
interrupts.
Analog alternate function
When the pin is used as an ADC input, the I/O
must be configured as floating input. The analog
multiplexer (controlled by the ADC registers)
switches the analog voltage present on the select-
ed pin to the common analog rail which is connect-
ed to the ADC input.
It is recommended not to change the voltage level
or loading on any port pin while conversion is in
progress. Furthermore it is recommended not to
have clocking pins located close to a selected an-
alog pin.
WARNING:
The analog input voltage level must
be within the limits stated in the absolute maxi-
mum ratings.
10.3 UNUSED I/O PINS
Unused I/O pins must be connected to fixed volt-
age levels. Refer to
Section 13.8
.
10.4 LOW POWER MODES
10.5 INTERRUPTS
The external interrupt event generates an interrupt
if the corresponding configuration is selected with
DDR and OR registers and the interrupt mask in
the CC register is not active (RIM instruction).
10.6 I/O PORT IMPLEMENTATION
The hardware implementation on each I/O port de-
pends on the settings in the DDR and OR registers
and specific feature of the I/O port such as ADC In-
put or true open drain.
Switching these I/O ports from one state to anoth-
er should be done in a sequence that prevents un-
wanted side effects. Recommended safe transi-
tions are illustrated in
Figure 29
Other transitions
are potentially risky and should be avoided, since
they are likely to present unwanted side-effects
such as spurious interrupt generation.
Figure 29. Interrupt I/O Port State Transitions
The I/O port register configurations are summa-
rised as follows.
