7.3.11 General Purpose IOs (GPIOs)

The ADS1x4S1x provide eight general purpose inputs and outputs (GPIOs). The logic levels of those GPIOs are referenced to the AVDD and AVSS supply. On ADS1x4S18 the GPIOs are shared with analog inputs. Use the GPIOx_CFG[1:0] (x = 0 to 7) bits to configure the pins as either analog inputs, digital inputs or digital outputs with either push-pull or open-drain characteristic.

Set the digital output levels of the GPIOs using the STEPx_GPIOx_DAT_OUT bits. The STEPx_GPIOx_DAT_OUT bit setting has no effect when GPIOx is configured as an analog or digital input.

The GPIOx_DAT_IN bits indicate the readback values at the GPIOx pins irrespective if the pins are configured as digital inputs or outputs. The GPIOx_DAT_IN bits read back 0b when GPIOx is configured as an analog input.

In addition, the following special functions are available:

  • GPIO3 can be configured as a digital comparator ALERT output.
  • GPIO4 can be configured as a FAULT indication output.

In power-down mode, any analog inputs configured as GPIO digital outputs transition into a Hi-Z state. To maintain a certain GPIO logic level during power-down, consider external pullup or pulldown resistors on the respective GPIO pins.
