multiPort: Advanced Digital I/O Ports (aDIO™)
Ensure that the BIOS setup has the multiPort set to aDIO mode. This board supports 16 bits of TTL/CMOS
compatible digital I/O (TTL signaling). These I/O lines are grouped into two ports, Port 0 and Port 1. Port 0 is bit
programmable; Port 1 is byte programmable. Port 0 supports RTD’s Advanced Digital Interrupt modes. The
three modes are strobe, match and event. Strobe mode generates an interrupt and latches Port 0 when the strobe
input transitions from low to high. Match mode generates an interrupt when an 8-bit pattern is received in
parallel that matches the match mask register. Event mode generates an interrupt when a change occurs on any
bit. In any mode, masking can be used to monitor selected lines.
When the CPU boots, all digital I/O lines are programmed as inputs, meaning that the digital I/O line’s initial
state is undetermined. If the digital I/O lines must power up to a known state, an external 10 k
Ω resistor must
be added to pull the line high or low.
The 8-bit control read/write registers for the digital I/O lines are located from I/O address 450h to 454h. These
registers are written to zero upon power up. From 450h to 454h, the name of these registers are Port 0 data,
Port 1 data
, Multi-Function, DIO-Control, and Wake Control register.
Digital I/O Register Set
Port 0 Data register is a read/write bit direction programmable register. A particular bit can be set to input or
output. A read of an input bit returns the value of port 0. A read of an output bit returns the last value written
to Port 0. A write to an output bit sends that value to port 0.
Port 1 Data register is a read/write byte direction programmable register. A read on this register when it is
programmed to input will read the value at the aDIO connector. A write on this register when it is programmed
as output will write the value to the aDIO connector. A read on this register when it is set to output will read the
last value sent to the aDIO connector.
The multi-function register is a read/write register whose contents are set by the DIO-Control register. See the
DIO-Control register description for a description of this register.
Note RTD provides drivers that support the aDIO interface on popular operating systems. RTD
recommends using these drivers instead of accessing the registers directly.
