data output (P
x
_REG) register bit.
For an output, write the data to be driven out by each pin to the corresponding bit of P
x
_REG. When a
pin is configured as standard I/O (P
x
_MODE.
y
= 0), the result of a CPU write to P
x
_REG is
immediately visible on the pin. When a pin is configured as a special-function signal (P
x
_MODE.
y
= 1),
the associated on-chip peripheral or off-chip component controls the pin. The CPU can still write to
P
x
_REG, but the pin is unaffected until it is switched back to its standard I/O function.
This feature allows software to configure a pin as standard I/O (clear P
x
_MODE.
y
), initialize or
overwrite the pin value, then configure the pin as a special-function signal (set P
x
_MODE.
y
). In this
way, initialization, fault recovery, exception handling, etc., can be done without changing the operation
of the associated peripheral.
