Thanks to Paul and Rolf the problem is now solved,
the "SCS |= 0x00000001;" solved the problem. Now the Port0 is also responding the FIO changes.

And yes it's a bit that is easily overlooked as Paul said.

Thank again guys!

Hi,

You need to enable Fast I/O on the legacy GPIO ports 0 and 1. Look at the
SCS register.

It's a gotcha every time... NXP should nuke those legacy ports.

Do you set bit 0 in the SCS register?
While it's cleared (the default) you don't have access to port 0 and 1 through the fast I/O mode registers.

Hi!

I have a MCB2300 board and I'm playing around with simple GPIO input/output.

If I extend the blinky example from keil so that the P2.8 is also "blinking" it works, but if I want to expand it so that any pin from the P0 would blink or take input it doesn't work.

Also in the uVision debuger when I observe the Fast GPIO Port 0 and Fast GPIO Port 2 there is the difference where the P0 has FIO0PIN all set to 0 and FIO2PIN is all set to 1.

A little code I use:

from this the P2.8 works (pin 93 on LPC2378) but P0.10(pin69) and P0.11(pin70) don't change their state.

Am I missing something? I reviewed the MCB2300 schematics and I couldn't find anything connected to this pins so there shouldn't be any problems.

Any help would be appriciated as to why the P0 doesn't work for me.

Thanks!
