PIC18F87K90 FAMILY
11.8 PORTG, TRISG and
LATG Registers
PORTG is a 5-bit wide, bidirectional port. The
corresponding Data Direction and Output Latch registers
are TRISG and LATG.
PORTG is multiplexed with EUSART, LCD and
CCP/ECCP/Analog/Comparator/RTCC/Timer input func-
tions (Table 11-14). When operating as I/O, all PORTG
pins have Schmitt Trigger input buffers. The open-drain
functionality for the CCPx and UART can be configured
using ODCONx.
RG4 is multiplexed with LCD segment drives controlled
by bits in the LCDSE2 register and as the
RG4/SEG26/RTCC/T7XKI/T5G/CCP5/AN16/P1D/C3INC
pin. The I/O port function is only available when the
segments are disabled.
The RG5 pin is multiplexed with the MCLR pin and is
available only as an input port. To configure this port for
input only, set the MCLRE pin (CONFIG3H<7>).
When enabling peripheral functions, care should be
taken in defining TRIS bits for each PORTG pin. Some
peripherals override the TRIS bit to make a pin an
output, while other peripherals override the TRIS bit to
make a pin an input. The user should refer to the
corresponding peripheral section for the correct TRIS bit
settings. The pin override value is not loaded into the
TRIS register. This allows read-modify-write of the TRIS
register without concern due to peripheral overrides.
