11.4.9.4 Multiplexing Digital Output Peripheral

The following conditions are characteristic of a multiplexed digital output peripheral:

  • Peripheral controls the output data. Some peripherals require the pin be configured as an output by setting the corresponding TRISx bit = 0.
  • If a peripheral pin has an automatic tri-state feature (e.g., PWM outputs), the peripheral has the ability to tri-state the pin.
  • Pin output driver type could be affected by the peripheral (e.g., drive strength, slew rate, etc.).
  • PORTx register output data has no effect.
