| When a GPIO is configured as an output and driven low, if an external signal sinks more
than 8.7 mA of current into a 4x pin, or 11.6 mA on an 8x pin, the pin
may become damaged. Similarly, when a GPIO is configured as an output
and driven high, if an external signal sources more than 5.8 mA of
current from a 4x pin, the pin may become damaged. 8x pins are not
affected by this condition. |
| Workaround If an I/O is configured as an output and driven high or low,
limit the current to or from the pin with a series resistor, or
avoid direct pin contention scenarios. |
