Characteristics of the Digital Pins
Series 6000 chips provide 12 bidirectional I/O pins that are usable in several different
configurations. These pins provide flexible interfacing to external hardware and access to
the internal timer/counters. In addition to reading the input pins, the application processor
can read the current logic level of the output pins.
The digital I/O pins (IO0 – IO11) have LVTTL-level inputs. Pins IO0 – IO7 also have low-
level-detect latches. The RST~ and SVC~ pins have internal pull-ups, and the RST~ pin
has hysteresis.
See the I/O Model Reference for Smart Transceivers and Neuron Chips for more information
about how to use the digital I/O pins.
Table 16 lists the characteristics of the digital I/O pins, which include the IO0 – IO11 pins,
the memory I/O pins, the Neuron 6000 CP0 – CP4 pins, and the other digital pins listed in
Table 14 and Table 15.
