Write a statement that will make pins 5, 3,
and 1 of PORTC to be outputs, and the
rest inputs

DDRC = 0b00101010;
Structure of main()


format string
while(1)


char, string, uint8_t, uint16_t, uint32_t, double
Why?
PORTB = PINA;

Explain what is going on as a result of this statement
ATmega16 Port Pin Details
See the ATmega 16 data sheet, p. 50 - 67
 Port pins consist of three register (special
memory location) bits:


DDRx


PORTxn


Data Direction bit in DDRx register (read/write)
PORTxn bit in PORTx data register (read/write)
PINxn

PINxn bit in PINx register (read only)

Bit Manipulations

Examples of how to work with Port pins

Setting bits
 Clearing bits
 Toggling bits
Challenge:
Make bits 5 and 3 of PORTB high and the rest low
Summary of Bit Manipulation

Setting a bit (making it a ‘1’)

Bitwise OR the PORTx register with the
corresponding bit mask


Clearing a bit (making it a ‘0’)

Bitwise AND the PORTx register with the
corresponding complemented bit mask


Ex. PORTB | = _BV(3);
Ex. PORTB & = ~( _BV(3) );
Toggling a bit (making it flip)

Bitwise XOR the PORTx register with the
corresponding bit mask

Ex. PORTB ^ = _BV(3);
Pull-up Resistors

Pins configured as INPUTS can be ‘pulled
up’ to VTG

Why is this useful?
Puts an input pin in a known state (logic high) if no
external influence has pulled it down (to logic low)
 Example of a switch connected between a pin and
ground


How is it done?
When the pin is configured as an input, SET the
corresponding bit in PORTxn
 Undone by clearing the bit

Recap ATmega16 Digital I/O

Pins are bi-directional. Can configure as:



Inputs – _______ determines the pin voltage
Outputs – ______ determines the pin voltage
Direction determined by bits in DDRx register


Where x is A – D (and corresponds to all 8 pins associated
with the port)
If configured as output:

Program can specify a pin to be high (VTG) or low (GND) by
writing a corresponding 1 or 0 (respectively) to PORTx
register


Ex. To make Port C pins 7, 3, and 4 low, and the rest high
PORTC=___________; (write in binary, then in hex)
Recap ATmega16 Digital I/O, cont.

If pins configured as input, this means:

External device can pull pin voltage high or low


i.e. take up to VTG or take down to GND
You can determine the state of the port
pins by reading the PINx register


unsigned char a_pins;
a_pins=PINA;
What is the content of a_pins:
binary:__________
hex:_____

Recap ATmega16 Digital I/O, cont.

If pins configured as input, cont.:

Can turn pull-up resistors on or off by
writing a 1 or 0 to corresponding pins
in PORTx


A pull-up resistor internally connects a
pin to VTG to give it a defined state
(logic high, i.e., 1)
Ex. Write the code that will:
Make Port A pins inputs
 Turn on pull-up resistors
 Read the voltages on the pins and store
them in a variable, testA
 What is the value of testA in binary
and hex?
