Peripheral Control Module
11.4 Peripheral Pins
Each peripheral has a number of dedicated pins with which to communicate to off-chip devices.
The six peripherals of the SA-1100 use a total of 24 pins: the LCD uses twelve pins; serial port 4
four pins; and serial port 0 through 3 each use two pins. Many applications may not require the use
of all six of the SA-1100’s peripherals. To provide maximum flexibility, the pins associated with
any unused peripheral (except serial port 0) can be used as general-purpose digital input/output
pins that are noninterruptible. When a peripheral is disabled, the peripheral pin controller (PPC)
automatically takes control of the peripheral’s pin direction and pin state. A user can sample input
pin state by reading the PPC pin state register (PPSR) and control the state of an output pin by
writing to it. Pin direction is established by configuring the PPC pin direction register (PPDR).
Table 11-4 shows a list of the pins associated with the peripheral units.
