Datasheet
23.0.5.2 Port B Data Register (PORTB)
Read: Anytime.
Write: Anytime.
23.0.5.3 Port A Data Direction Register (DDRA)
Read: Anytime. In emulation modes, read operations will return the data from the external bus, in
all other modes the data source is depending on the data direction value.
Write: Anytime. In emulation modes, write operations will also be directed to the external bus.

Field Description
7–0
PA[7:0]
Port A — Port A pins 7–0 are associated with address outputs ADDR15 through ADDR8 respectively inexpanded
modesWhen this port is not used for external addresses, these pins can be used as general purpose I/O. If the
data direction bits of the associated I/O pins are set to logic level “1”, a read returns the value of the port register,
otherwise the buffered pin input state is read.

Field Description
7–0
PB[7:0]
Port B — Port B pins 7–0 are associated with address outputs ADDR7 through ADDR1 respectively in expanded
modes. Pin 0 is associated with output ADDR0 in emulation modes and special test mode and with Upper Data
Select (
UDS) in normal expanded mode. When this port is not used for external addresses, these pins can be
used as general purpose I/O. If the data direction bits of the associated I/O pins are set to logic level “1”, a read
returns the value of the port register, otherwise the buffered pin input state is read.
