1.7.3 INPUT POLARITY REGISTERS
These registers allow the user to configure the polarity
of the input port data (GP0 and GP1). If a bit in this reg-
ister is set, the corresponding input port (GPn) data bit
polarity will be inverted.
• IPOL0 (controls the polarity of GP0)
• IPOL1 (controls the polarity of GP1)
REGISTER 1-5: IPOL0 - INPUT POLARITY PORT REGISTER 0
REGISTER 1-6: IPOL1 - INPUT POLARITY PORT REGISTER 1

IGP0.7 IGP0.6 IGP0.5 IGP0.4 IGP0.3 IGP0.2 IGP0.1 IGP0.0
bit 7 bit 0
bit 7-0
IGP0.0:IGP0.7: Controls the polarity inversion for the input pins
1 = Corresponding GP0 bit is inverted
0 = Corresponding GP0 bit is not inverted
Legend:
R = Readable bit W = Writable bit U = Unimplemented bit, read as ‘0’
- n = Value at POR ‘1’ = Bit is set ‘0’ = Bit is cleared x = Bit is unknown

IGP1.0:IGP1.7: Controls the polarity inversion for the input pins
1 = Corresponding GP1 bit is inverted
0 = Corresponding GP1 bit is not inverted
