10.4 PORTD and DDRD Registers
PORTD is an 8-bit bi-directional port. The correspond-
ing data direction register is DDRD. A '1' in DDRD con-
figures the corresponding port pin as an input. A '0' in
the DDRD register configures the corresponding port
pin as an output. Reading PORTD reads the status of
the pins, whereas writing to PORTD will write to the port
latch. PORTD is multiplexed with the system bus.
When operating as the system bus, PORTD is the high
order byte of the address/data bus (AD15:AD8). The
timing for the system bus is shown in the Electrical
Specifications section.
Note:
This port is configured as the system bus
when the device’s configuration bits are
selected to Microprocessor or Extended
Microcontroller modes. In the two other
microcontroller modes, this port is a gen-
eral purpose I/O.
Example 10-4 shows an instruction sequence to initial-
ize PORTD. The Bank Select Register (BSR) must be
selected to Bank 1 for the port to be initialized. The fol-
lowing example uses the MOVLB instruction to load the
BSR register for bank selection.
