Data Direction Register B - Freescale Semiconductor MC68HC908MR16 Datasheet

10.3.2 Data Direction Register B

Data direction register B (DDRB) determines whether each port B pin is an input or an output. Writing a
logic 1 to a DDRB bit enables the output buffer for the corresponding port B pin; a logic 0 disables the
output buffer.

Reset:
DDRB[7:0] — Data Direction Register B Bits
These read/write bits control port B data direction. Reset clears DDRB[7:0], configuring all port B pins
as inputs.
1 = Corresponding port B pin configured as output
0 = Corresponding port B pin configured as input
Avoid glitches on port B pins by writing to the port B data register before
changing data direction register B bits from 0 to 1.
Figure 10-7 shows the port B I/O logic.
READ DDRB ($0005)
WRITE DDRB ($0005)
WRITE PTB ($0001)
READ PTB ($0001)
When bit DDRBx is a logic 1, reading address $0001 reads the PTBx data latch. When bit DDRBx is a
logic 0, reading address $0001 reads the voltage level on the pin. The data latch can always be written,
regardless of the state of its data direction bit.
