Port M Registers
Port M is composed of the following four general-purpose I/O registers:
•
Port M direction register (PMDIR)
•
Port M data register (PMDATA)
•
Port M pull-up enable register (PMPUEN)
•
Port M select register (PMSEL)
Each signal in the PMDATA register connects to an external pin. It should be noted that pins 6 and 7 are
not connected to external pins.

Port M Direction Register
The direction register controls the direction (input or output) of the line associated with the PMDATA bit
position. When the data bit is assigned to a dedicated I/O function by the PMSEL register, the DIR bits are
ignored. The settings for the PMDIR register bit positions are shown in Table 10-51.
