Unassigned Pin Handling

Table 5.18 lists Unassigned Pin Handling. Figure 5.11 shows Unassigned Pin Handling.
Table 5.18 Unassigned Pin Handling
Pin Name
Ports P1, P3_3 to P3_5,
P3_7, P4_5
Ports P4_6, P4_7
Port P4_2/VREF
(3)
RESET
NOTES:
1. If these ports are set to output mode and left open, they remain in input mode until they are switched
to output mode by a program. The voltage level of these pins may be undefined and the power
supply current may increase while the ports remain in input mode.
The content of the direction registers may change due to noise or program runaway caused by
noise. In order to enhance program reliability, the program should periodically repeat the setting of
the direction registers.
2. Connect these unassigned pins to the MCU using the shortest wire length (2 cm or less) possible.
3. When the power-on reset function is in use.

• After setting to input mode, connect each pin to VSS via a resistor (pull-
down) or connect each pin to VCC via a resistor (pull-up).
• After setting to output mode, leave these pins open.
