25.5.2. Register Map

An Avalon® -MM host peripheral, such as a CPU, controls and communicates with the PIO core via the four 32-bit registers, shown below. The table assumes that the PIO core's I/O ports are configured to a width of n bits.
Table 305.  Register Map for the PIO Core
Offset Register Name R/W (n-1) ... 2 1 0
0 data read access R Data value currently on PIO inputs
write access W New value to drive on PIO outputs
1 direction (1) R/W Individual direction control for each I/O port. A value of 0 sets the direction to input; 1 sets the direction to output.
2 interruptmask (1) R/W IRQ enable/disable for each input port. Setting a bit to 1 enables interrupts for the corresponding port.
3 edgecapture (1) , (2) R/W Edge detection for each input port.
4 outset W Specifies which bit of the output port to set. Outset value is not stored into a physical register in the IP core. Hence it's value is not reserve for future use.
5 outclear W Specifies which output bit to clear. Outclear value is not stored into a physical register in the IP core. Hence it's value is not reserve for future use.
Note :
  1. This register may not exist, depending on the hardware configuration. If a register is not present, reading the register returns an undefined value, and writing the register has no effect.
  2. If the option Enable bit-clearing for edge capture register is turned off, writing any value to the edgecapture register clears all bits in the register. Otherwise, writing a 1 to a particular bit in the register clears only that bit.
