28.5 Product Dependencies
In order to use this peripheral, other parts of the system must be configured correctly, as described below.
28.5.1 I/O Lines
In order to use the I/O lines of this peripheral, the I/O pins must be configured using the I/O Pin Controller
(PORT).
When the SERCOM is used in I
2
C mode, the SERCOM controls the direction and value of the I/O pins. If
the receiver or transmitter is disabled, these pins can be used for other purposes.
