I/O Pin Characteristics

The following are two I/O pin types with three different speeds: Normal and High Sink.

The Drive Strength bit is located in the Pin Configuration register of the PORT (PORT.PINCFG.DRVSTR).

Table 1. I/O Pins Common Characteristics
Symbol Parameter Conditions Min. Typ. Max. Units
VIL Input low-level voltage VDD=1.8V-2.7V - - 0.25*VDD V
VDD=2.7V-3.63V - - 0.3*VDD
VIH Input high-level voltage VDD=1.8V-2.7V 0.7*VDD - -
VDD=2.7V-3.63V 0.55*VDD - -
VOL Output low-level voltage VDD>1.8V, IOL max. - 0.1*VDD 0.2*VDD
