Port 1 of LPC 2148 completely switched to GPIO does not work.

Started by "joerg.nagel" June 28, 2006
Hello boB,

I did get FIO to work on port 1. As I recall it was just a matter of
setting the GPIO1M bit and using the proper FIO registers to set or
clear the individual or groups of ports. For instance these defines to
control an LED:

//LED2 = P1.29, controlled by Fast GPIO
#define LED2_OFF FIO1DIR3 |= 0x20; FIO1SET3 = 0x20
#define LED2_ON FIO1DIR3 |= 0x20; FIO1CLR3 = 0x20
#define LED2_INV\
{\
if(FIO1PIN3 & 0x20) \
{LED2_ON;} \
else {LED2_OFF;} \
}

And these defines to use P1.16 - P1.23 as een 8-bit address databus
(for an Ethernet controller):

#define ETH_AD_INIT FIO1MASK2 = 0x00
#define ETH_AD_INPUT FIO1DIR2 = 0x00
#define ETH_AD_OUTPUT FIO1DIR2 = 0xFF
#define ETH_OUT(d) FIO1PIN2 = d
#define ETH_IN(d) d = FIO1PIN2

To be sure that P1.16 - P1.31 can be used as (Fast) GPIO I used these
commands:

SCS_REG = 0x02;
PINSEL2 = 0x00;

Note that the PINSEL2 default/reset value is determined by the reset
value of pins P1.26 and P1.20!! By the way: I don't see why you should
and the PINSEL2 value with 0x00000030. Why filtering and keeping bits
4 & 5? All other bits than 1 & 2 are reserved and should always be set
to 0, is it not?

The only problem I had that no defines for the Fast IO were included
in the "iolpc21xx" header files of the IAR EWARM environment. Not even
the SCS register! I was quite surprised by this, even in the latest
release (4.40) this has not been added, like no one has use this
feature before?? I had to copy these from the Keil enviroment, which
worked fine.

Hope this will help you in some way,

Slay

Hi Bob,

Yes I have fast I/O working on an LPC2148. I only use the 32bit
registers though, so that might be an issue.

I think it's great to have as many resources as possible for
this stuff. Thanks !
I like it all !
