PE[7:0]
Description
Port E — Port E bits 7–0 are associated with external bus control signals and interrupt inputs. These include
mode select (MODB, MODA), E clock, double frequency E clock, Instruction Tagging High and Low (TAGHI,
TAGLO), Read/Write (R/W), Read Enable and Write Enable (RE, WE), Lower Data Select (LDS), IRQ, and XIRQ.
When not used for any of these specific functions, Port E pins 7–2 can be used as general purpose I/O and
pins 1–0 can be used as general purpose inputs.
If the data direction bits of the associated I/O pins are set to logic level “1”, a read returns the value of the port
register, otherwise the buffered pin input state is read.
Pins 6 and 5 are inputs with enabled pull-down devices while RESET pin is low.
Pins 7 and 3 are inputs with enabled pull-up devices while RESET pin is low.

Figure 23-12. Port E Data Direction Register (DDRE)
Read: Anytime. In emulation modes, read operations will return the data from the external bus, in
all other modes the data source is depending on the data direction value.
Write: Anytime. In emulation modes, write operations will also be directed to the external bus.

Description
7–0
DDRE[7:2]
Data Direction Port E — his register controls the data direction for port E. When Port E is operating as a general
purpose I/O port, DDRE determines whether each pin is an input or output. A logic level “1” causes the
associated port pin to be an output and a logic level “0” causes the associated pin to be a high-impedance input.
Port E bit 1 (associated with IRQ) and bit 0 (associated with XIRQ) cannot be configured as outputs. Port E, bits
1 and 0, can be read regardless of whether the alternate interrupt function is enabled.
0 Associated pin is configured as input.
1 Associated pin is configured as output.
Note: Due to internal synchronization circuits, it can take up to 2 bus clock cycles until the correct value is read
on PORTE after changing the DDRE register.
