, a single signal transition on the pin will be delayed between ½ and 1-½ system clock
period depending upon the time of assertion.
When reading back a software assigned pin value, a nop instruction must be inserted as indicated in the
figure below. The out instruction sets the “SYNC LATCH” signal at the positive edge of the clock. In this
case, the delay t
pd
through the synchronizer is 1 system clock period.

The following code example shows how to set port B pins 0 and 1 high, 2 and 3 low, and define the port
pins from 4 to 7 as input with pull-ups assigned to port pins 6 and 7. The resulting pin values are read
back again, but as previously discussed, a nop instruction is included to be able to read back the value
recently assigned to some of the pins.
Assembly Code Example
(1)
:.
; Define pull-ups and set outputs high
; Define directions for port pins
ldi r16,(1<<PB7)|(1<<PB6)|(1<<PB1)|(1<<PB0)
ldi r17,(1<<DDB3)|(1<<DDB2)|(1<<DDB1)|(1<<DDB0)
out PORTB,r16
out DDRB,r17
; Insert nop for synchronization
nop
; Read port pins

C Code Example
(1)
unsigned char i;
:.
/* Define pull-ups and set outputs high */
/* Define directions for port pins */
PORTB = (1<<PB7)|(1<<PB6)|(1<<PB1)|(1<<PB0);
DDRB = (1<<DDB3)|(1<<DDB2)|(1<<DDB1)|(1<<DDB0);
/* Insert nop for synchronization*/
_NOP();
/* Read port pins */
i = PINB;
