This register always reads back the buffered state of the associated pins. This can also be used to
detect overload or short circuit conditions on output pins.
24.0.5.44 Port H Data Direction Register (DDRH)
Read: Anytime.
Write: Anytime.
This register configures each port H pin as either input or output.
If the associated routed SPI module is enabled this register has no effect on the pins.
If a SPI module is enabled, the SPI determines the pin direction. Refer to SPI section for details.
The DDRH bits revert to controlling the I/O direction of a pin when the associated peripheral
modules are disabled.
24.0.5.45 Port H Reduced Drive Register (RDRH)
Read: Anytime.
Write: Anytime.
This register configures the drive strength of each Port H output pin as either full or reduced. If the
port is used as input this bit is ignored.

0 Associated pin is congured as input.
1 Associated pin is congured as output.
Note: Due to internal synchronization circuits, it can take up to 2 bus clock cycles until the correct value is read
on PTH or PTIH registers, when changing the DDRH register.
