I/O Ports
TxD — SCI Transmit Data Output
The PTE0/TxD pin is the transmit data output for the SCI module.
When the enable SCI bit, ENSCI, is clear, the SCI module is disabled,
and the PTE0/TxD pin is available for general-purpose I/O. (See
SCINOTE:
Data direction register E (DDRE) does not affect the data direction of
port E pins that are being used by the SCI module. However, the DDRE
bits always determine whether reading port E returns the states of the
latches or the states of the pins. (See Table 5).
Data Direction
Register E
Data direction register E determines whether each port E pin is an input
or an output. Writing a logic 1 to a DDRE bit enables the output buffer for
the corresponding port E pin; a logic 0 disables the output buffer.
DDRE[7:0] — Data Direction Register E Bits
These read/write bits control port E data direction. Reset clears
DDRE[7:0], configuring all port E pins as inputs.
1 = Corresponding port E pin configured as output
0 = Corresponding port E pin configured as input
NOTE:
Avoid glitches on port E pins by writing to the port E data register before
changing data direction register E bits from 0 to 1.
