General-Purpose Input/Outputs (GPIOs)
Register 20: GPIO Commit (GPIOCR), offset 0x524
The GPIOCR register is the commit register. The value of the GPIOCR register determines which
bits of the GPIOAFSEL, GPIOPUR, GPIOPDR, and GPIODEN registers are committed when a
write to these registers is performed. If a bit in the GPIOCR register is cleared, the data being written
to the corresponding bit in the GPIOAFSEL, GPIOPUR, GPIOPDR, or GPIODEN registers cannot
be committed and retains its previous value. If a bit in the GPIOCR register is set, the data being
written to the corresponding bit of the GPIOAFSEL, GPIOPUR, GPIOPDR, or GPIODEN registers
is committed to the register and reflects the new value.
The contents of the GPIOCR register can only be modified if the status in the GPIOLOCK register
is unlocked. Writes to the GPIOCR register are ignored if the status in the GPIOLOCK register is
locked.
Important: This register is designed to prevent accidental programming of the registers that control
connectivity to the NMI and JTAG/SWD debug hardware. By initializing the bits of the
GPIOCR register to 0 for PB7 and PC[3:0], the NMI and JTAG/SWD debug port can
only be converted to GPIOs through a deliberate set of writes to the GPIOLOCK,
GPIOCR, and the corresponding registers.
Because this protection is currently only implemented on the NMI and JTAG/SWD pins
on PB7 and PC[3:0], all of the other bits in the GPIOCR registers cannot be written
with 0x0. These bits are hardwired to 0x1, ensuring that it is always possible to commit
new values to the GPIOAFSEL, GPIOPUR, GPIOPDR, or GPIODEN register bits of
these other pins.

Reset Description
0x0000.00 Software should not rely on the value of a reserved bit. To provide
compatibility with future products, the value of a reserved bit should be
preserved across a read-modify-write operation.
