NOTES:
•
•
•
All ports marked as “Reserved” must be initialized to 0 at initial setup. Software modifications to these
locations after setup may cause incorrect operation.
All read/write port bits marked “Not used” must be written with the value 0 to maintain software com-
patibility with future versions.
All read-only port bits marked “Not used” are driven with a 0 and should be masked off by the software
to maintain compatibility with future versions.
