PIC32MX1XX/2XX
11.0 I/O PORTS
Note 1: This data sheet summarizes the features
of the PIC32MX1XX/2XX family of
devices. It is not intended to be a
comprehensive reference source. To
complement the information in this data
sheet, refer to Section 12. “I/O Ports”
(DS61120) in the “PIC32 Family
Reference Manual”, which is available
from the Microchip web site
(www.microchip.com/PIC32).
2: Some registers and associated bits
described in this section may not be
available on all devices. Refer to
Section 4.0 “Memory Organization” in
this data sheet for device-specific register
and bit information.
General purpose I/O pins are the simplest of peripher-
als. They allow the PIC^® MCU to monitor and control
other devices. To add flexibility and functionality, some
pins are multiplexed with alternate function(s). These
functions depend on which peripheral features are on
the device. In general, when a peripheral is functioning,
that pin may not be used as a general purpose I/O pin.
Following are some of the key features of this module:
• Individual output pin open-drain enable/disable
• Individual input pin weak pull-up and pull-down
• Monitor selective inputs and generate interrupt
when change in pin state is detected
• Operation during CPU Sleep and Idle modes
• Fast bit manipulation using CLR, SET and INV
registers
Figure 11-1 illustrates a block diagram of a typical
multiplexed I/O port.

for any specific port/peripheral combination may be different than it is shown here.
