All but three I/O port pins on the P89LPC924/925 may be configured by software to
one of four types on a bit-by-bit basis. These are: quasi-bidirectional (standard 80C51
port outputs), push-pull, open drain, and input-only. Two configuration registers for
each port select the output type for each port pin.
P1.5 (RST) can only be an input and cannot be configured.
P1.2 (SCL/T0) and P1.3 (SDA/INT0) may only be configured to be either input-only or
open-drain.
Quasi-bidirectional output type can be used as both an input and output without the
need to reconfigure the port. This is possible because when the port outputs a logic
HIGH, it is weakly driven, allowing an external device to pull the pin LOW. When the
pin is driven LOW, it is driven strongly and able to sink a fairly large current. These
features are somewhat similar to an open-drain output except that there are three
pull-up transistors in the quasi-bidirectional output that serve different purposes.
The P89LPC924/925 is a 3 V device, but the pins are 5 V-tolerant. In
quasi-bidirectional mode, if a user applies 5 V on the pin, there will be a current
flowing from the pin to V
5 V in quasi-bidirectional mode is discouraged.
A quasi-bidirectional port pin has a Schmitt-triggered input that also has a glitch
suppression circuit.
The open-drain output configuration turns off all pull-ups and only drives the
pull-down transistor of the port driver when the port latch contains a logic ‘0’. To be
used as a logic output, a port configured in this manner must have an external
pull-up, typically a resistor tied to V
An open-drain port pin has a Schmitt-triggered input that also has a glitch
suppression circuit.
The input-only port configuration has no output drivers. It is a Schmitt-triggered input
that also has a glitch suppression circuit.
The push-pull output configuration has the same pull-down structure as both the
open-drain and the quasi-bidirectional output modes, but provides a continuous
strong pull-up when the port latch contains a logic ‘1’. The push-pull mode may be
used when more source current is needed from a port output. A push-pull port pin
has a Schmitt-triggered input that also has a glitch suppression circuit.
The P89LPC924/925 incorporates two Analog Comparators. In order to give the best
analog function performance and to minimize power consumption, pins that are being
used for analog functions must have the digital outputs and digital inputs disabled.
