10.4 PORTD, TRISD and LATD
Registers
PORTD is an 8-bit wide, bi-directional port. The corre-
sponding Data Direction register is TRISD. Setting a
TRISD bit (= 1) will make the corresponding PORTD
pin an input (i.e., put the corresponding output driver in
a high-impedance mode). Clearing a TRISD bit (= 0)
will make the corresponding PORTD pin an output (i.e.,
put the contents of the output latch on the selected pin).
The Data Latch register (LATD) is also memory
mapped. Read-modify-write operations on the LATD
register, read and write the latched output value for
PORTD.
PORTD is an 8-bit port with Schmitt Trigger input buff-
ers. Each pin is individually configurable as an input or
output.
Note: On a Power-on Reset, these pins are
configured as digital inputs.
PORTD is multiplexed with the system bus as the
external memory interface; I/O port functions are only
available when the system bus is disabled by setting
the EBDIS bit in the MEMCOM register
(MEMCON<7>). When operating as the external
memory interface, PORTD is the low order byte of the
multiplexed address/data bus (AD7:AD0).
PORTD can also be configured as an 8-bit wide
microprocessor port (Parallel Slave Port) by setting
control bit PSPMODE (TRISE<4>). In this mode, the
input buffers are TTL. See Section 10.10 for additional
information on the Parallel Slave Port (PSP).
