3.2.3 Programming SoftConfig Switches

On the ADSP-SC589 EZ-Board, two Microchip MCP23017 devices exist. Each of these devices have
the following programming characteristics:
Each switch has two programmable GPIO registers.
GPIO Register Register Address
GPIOA 0x12
GPIOB 0x13
Each GPIO register controls eight signals (software switches).
By default, the Microchip MCP23017 GPIO signals function as input signals.
The signals must be programmed as output signals to override their default values. The
following table shows the Microchip register addresses and the values that must be written to
them to program the signals as output signals.
IODIR Register IODIR Register Address Value to be Written to Program Signals as Outputs
IODIRA 0x00
IODIRB 0x01
Each of the examples in the ADSP-SC58x Board Support Package include source files that program
the soft switches, even if the default settings are being used. The README for each example
identifies only the signals that are being changed from their default values. The code that programs
the soft switches is located in the SoftConfig_SC589.c file in each example.
The following tables outline the default values for each of the two Microchip MCP23017 devices.

GPIOA 0x12
GPIOB 0x13
