48.5 I/O Pin Characteristics

Two different pin types with two different speeds are Normal and High-Sink pins(2). The Drive Strength bit is located in the Pin Configuration register PORT (PORT.PINCFG.DRVSTR).

The pins with I2C alternative mode available are compliant with I2C specifications. All I2C pins support Standard (Sm), Fast (Fm), Fast plus (Fm+) and High-Speed (HS) modes. The available I2C pins are listed in the I/O Multiplexing section.

The RESET_N pin has the same properties as standard GPIOs.

Symbol Parameter Conditions Normal pins High-Sink pins Normal pins High-Sink pins Units
DRVSTR = 0 DRVSTR = 1
tRISE Maximum rise time VDD = 5.0V, load = 20 pF 15 12 8 11 ns
tFALL Maximum fall time VDD = 5.0V, load = 20 pF 15 11 7 10
  1. These values are based on simulation and not covered by test limits in production or characterization.
  2. The following pins are High-Sink pins and have different properties than normal pins: PA10, PA11, PB10, PB11.
