Figure 9.7 Port 8 Pin Configuration
Port 8 has the following registers.
• Port control register 8 (PCR8)
• Port data register 8 (PDR8)
9.7.1 Port Control Register 8 (PCR8)
PCR8 selects inputs/outputs in bit units for pins to be used as general I/O ports of port 8.

When each of the port 8 pins P87 to P85 functions as a
general I/O port, setting a PCR8 bit to 1 makes the
corresponding pin an output port, while clearing the bit to
0 makes the pin an input port.

PDR8 stores output data for port 8 pins.
If PDR8 is read while PCR8 bits are set to 1, the value
stored in PDR8 is read. If PDR8 is read while PCR8 bits
are cleared to 0, the pin states are read regardless of the
value stored in PDR8.
4 to 0 All 1 Reserved
These bits are always read as 1.
