General Description
The Pins component is the preferred way for hardware resources to connect to a physical portpin. It provides access to external signals via an appropriately configured physical IO pin. It
allows electrical characteristics to be associated with one or more pins; these characteristics are
then used by PSoC Creator to automatically place and route the signals within the component.
Pins can be used with schematic wire connections and/or software. To access a Pins component
from component APIs, the component must be contiguous and non-spanning. This ensures that
the pins are guaranteed to be mapped into a single physical port. Pins components that span
ports or are not contiguous can only be accessed from a schematic or with the global per-pin
APIs.
Note There are #defines created for each pin in the Pins component to be used with global APIs.
A Pins component can be configured into any legal combination of types. For convenience the
Component Catalog provides four preconfigured Pins components: Analog, Digital Bidirectional,
Digital Input, and Digital Output.
When to Use a Pins Component
Use the Pins component when a design needs to generate or access an off-device signal
through a physical IO pin. Pins are the most commonly used component in the Catalog. For
example, they are used to interface with potentiometers, buttons, LEDs, peripheral sensors such
as proximity detectors and accelerometers.

PSoC® Creator™ Component Data Sheet
Input/Output Connections
This section describes the various input and output connections for the Pins component.
Display of Pins
Pins can be configured into complex combinations of input, output, bidirectional, and analog.
Simple configurations with less than two internal hardware connections are generally shown as
single pins. More complex types of pins, arrays of pins, or buses are shown as standard
components with a bounding box.
The default, and most common, configurations are shown in the following sections.
Display of Locked Pins
When you assign a Pins component to a physical GPIO or SIO pin using the PSoC Creator
Design-Wide Resources Pin Editor, the tooltip for the Pins component shows the specific pin
assignments. If you lock a pin assignment, the display of the component indicates the
assignment, as shown in the following example:
Note If the Pins component is set to "Display as Bus" then the display of the component will not
display any locked pin assignments; however, the tooltip will still display this information.
Analog
A Pins component should be configured as Analog any time a connection is required between a
device pin and an internal analog terminal connected together with an analog wire. When

PSoC® Creator™ Component Data Sheet
Pins
configured as analog, the terminal is shown on the right side of the symbol with the connection
drawn in the color of an analog wire.
An analog Pins component may also support digital input or output connections, or both, as well
as bidirectional connections. It is possible to short together digital output and analog signals on
the same pin. This can be useful in some applications; however, it is an advanced topic and
should be used with care.
Digital Input
A Pins component should be configured as Digital Input any time a connection is required
between a device pin and an internal digital input terminal, or its state is read by the CPU/DMA.
In all cases, the pin state is readable by the CPU/DMA. Additionally, if the terminal is displayed it
can be routed to other components in the schematic.
When visible, the terminal is shown on the right side of the symbol. The connection is drawn in
the color of a digital wire with small input buffer to show signal direction.
A digital input Pins component may also support digital output and analog connections.
Digital Output
A Pins component should be configured as Digital Output any time a device pin is to be driven to
a logic high or low. In all cases, the pin state is writeable by the CPU/DMA. Additionally, if the
terminal is displayed it can be routed from other components in the schematic. When visible, the

PSoC® Creator™ Component Data Sheet
terminal is shown on the left side of the symbol. The connection is drawn in the color of a digital
wire with a small output buffer to show signal direction.
A digital output Pins component may also support digital input and analog connections.
Digital Output Enable
Digital Output Enable should be selected when digital logic is to be used to quickly control the
pin output driver without CPU intervention. A high logic level on this terminal enables the pin
output driver as configured by the Drive Mode parameter. A logic low level on this terminal
disables the pin output driver and makes the pin assume the High-Z drive mode. This terminal is
shown when a component is configured with digital output using a schematic connection, and
when the digital output enable has been selected. The digital output enable appears on the left
side of the symbol and connects to the digital output buffer. It is drawn in the color of a digital
wire.
When set to Display as Bus, only one output enable is provided regardless of the Pins
component width as all the pins share the same output enable. When not displayed as a bus,
individual output enables are provided per pin.
A digital output enable Pins component may also support input and analog connections.

PSoC® Creator™ Component Data Sheet
Pins
Digital Bidirectional
A Pins component should be configured as Digital Bidirectional any time a connection is required
between a device pin and an internal digital bidirectional terminal. Digital Bidirectional mode is
most often used with communication component like I2C. When configured as digital
bidirectional, the terminal is shown on the left side of the symbol with the connection drawn in the
color of a digital wire with input and output buffers showing that the signal is bidirectional.
A bidirectional Pins component may also support analog connections.
Vref
To configure a Pins component to use a Vref signal:
•
use a Digital Input or Bidirectional terminal and configure the Threshold parameter to
"Vref" on the Input subtab, or
•
use a Digital Output or Bidirectional terminal and configure the Drive Level to “Vref” on
the Output subtab
Using a Vref requires an SIO pin, indicated with a pink outline. All pins are capable of supplying
their respective Vddio supply voltage. SIO pins are also able to supply a programmable or
analog routed voltage for interface with devices at a different potential than the SIO’s Vddio
voltage. The Vref terminal provides the analog routed voltage supplied to the SIO pin. SIO pins
may also use the Vref input as the input threshold for an SIO.
The Vref signal displays on the right side of the component, coming out of the bottom of the SIO
single pin or the SIO pin pair depending on how it is configured. Each SIO pin pair shares a
single Vref input.
Vref can only be used in conjunction with another digital input or output connection.
Note When using Vref, Analog cannot be used.

PSoC® Creator™ Component Data Sheet
IRQ
To configure a Pins component with an interrupt, you must use a Digital Input and configure the
Interrupt parameter on the Input subtab. When interrupts are used, the Pins component
displays with a bounding box, and the IRQ is displayed coming out of the bottom of the
component. The typical use case is to connect an Interrupt component to this terminal.
An Interrupt can be used in all configurations of the Pins component, as long as you include
Digital Input.
•
Interrupt – This parameter selects whether the pin is able to generate an interrupt and, if
selected, the interrupt type. The pin interrupt may be generated with a rising edge, falling
edge, as well as both edges. If set to anything but None, the component must be
configured to be contiguous to ensure it is mapped into a single physical port. A single
port is required because all pins in a port logically OR their interrupts together and
generate a single interrupt signal and symbol terminal. The Interrupt parameter uses the
dedicated pin interrupt logic which latches which pins generated interrupted events. After
an interrupt occurs the Pin_1_ClearInterrupt() function must be called to clear the latched
pin events to enable future events to be detected. If more than one pin in the Pins
component can generate an interrupt, the Pin_1_ClearInterrupt() return value can be
decoded to determine which pins generated interrupt events.
While not the preferred method, any digital input hardware connection can also be connected to
an isr component providing the ability to generate a pin interrupt on high or low logic level versus
on an edge event. Using the digital input connection for a level interrupt does not use the
dedicated pin interrupt logic configured with this parameter.
•
None - Default
•
Rising edge
•
Falling edge
•
Any edge

Pins
Component Parameters
Drag a Pin component onto the design schematic and double-click it to open the Configure
dialog. This dialog is used to set component-wide parameters, such as the power-on reset state
and physical pin mapping constraints. The parameters are categorized into separate tabs called
subtabs.
Pins Tab
The Pins tab has three areas: a toolbar, pin tree, and another set of subtabs. The toolbar is used
to determine how many physical pins are managed by the component and determine their order.
The subtabs are used to set the pin-specific attributes, such as type, direction, drive mode, and
initial state. The pin tree works with the subtabs to allow you to choose the specific pin(s) to
which these attributes are applied.
Toolbar
Contains these commands:
•
Number of Pins – The number of device pins controlled by the component. Valid values
are between 1 and 64. Default Value: 1.
Note Some configurations can only be placed into a single physical port; therefore, the
default maximum number of pins is limited to 8 or less. When the component is
configured as noncontiguous and spanning, the maximum number of pins can be set
up to 64 as they are no longer required to be placed into a single physical port.
•
Delete Pin – Deletes selected pin(s) from the tree.
Document Number: 001-62632 Rev. *A
Page 7 of 22
Pins
PSoC® Creator™ Component Data Sheet
•
Add / Change Alias – Opens a dialog to add or change the alias name for a selected pin
in the tree. You can also double-click a pin or press [F2] to open the dialog.
•
Move Up / Down – Moves the selected pin(s) up or down in the tree.
•
Pair / Unpair SIOs – Pairs or unpairs selected SIO pins (denoted by a pink outline) in the
tree.
This control specifies whether or not pins that require SIO should be placed in the same
SIO pair on the device. Pairing pins results in fewer physical SIO pins being "wasted."
This is because an unpaired pin that requires SIO cannot share its SIO pair on the device
with another pin that requires SIO. For pins to share an SIO pair on the device, they must
have their per-pair settings configured the same way and be adjacent.
A pin requires SIO if Hot Swap is set to true, Threshold Level is set to anything but
LVTTL or CMOS, Drive Level set to Vref, and/or Drive Current is set to 25mA sink.
Pin Tree
This area displays all of the pins for the component. You can individually select one or more pins
to use with the toolbar commands and subtabs. Each pin displays its name which is comprised
of the Pins component name + ‘_’ + individual pin alias.
Type Subtab
This is the default subtab displayed for the Pins tab. This is where you choose the type of pins
for your component using the checkboxes. The preview area shows what the selected Pin(s)
component symbol will look like with various options selected for that specific pin.
•
Analog – Select Analog to enable the analog pin terminal to allow analog signal routing to
other components. Selecting analog forces the pin to be physically placed on a GPIO pin
and not an SIO pin.
•
Digital Input – Select Digital Input to enable the digital input pin terminal (optional) as well
as enable the Input subtab for additional configuration opens related to inputs.
•
•
HW Connection – This parameter determines whether or not the digital input terminal
for an input pin is displayed in the schematic. If displayed, the pin provides a digital
signal to the Digital System Interconnect (DSI) for use with hardware components.
Independent of this selection, all pins may always be read by the CPU through
registers or APIs. If this option is unchecked, the terminal is not displayed and it is
controlled only by software APIs.
Digital Output - Select Digital Output to enable the digital output pin terminal (optional) as
well as enable the Output subtab for additional configuration opens related to outputs.
•

HW Connection – This parameter determines whether or not the digital output terminal
for a given output pin is displayed in the schematic. If displayed, the pin outputs the
digital signal supplied by hardware components through the DSI. If not displayed, the

Pins
output logic level is determined by CPU register or API writes. If this option is
unchecked, the terminal is not displayed and it is controlled only by software APIs.
•
•
Output Enable – This parameter allows the use of the Output Enable feature of pins
and displays the Output Enable input terminal. The Output Enable feature allows a
hardware signal to control the pins output drivers without requiring the CPU to write
registers. A high logic level configures the output drivers as set in the Drive Mode
parameter. A low logic level disables the output drivers and places the pin into the
High-Z drive mode.
Bidirectional – Enabling the Bidirectional parameter is functionally equivalent to Enabling
the Digital Input with HW Connection and the Digital Output with HW Connection
parameters. The difference is that only a single bidirectional terminal is displayed on the
component symbol rather than separate input and output terminals. Both Input and Output
subtabs are enabled for further configuration.
General Subtab
The General subtab allows you to set up parameters that apply to all pins such as the drive
move, initial state, and minimum supply voltage of the selected pin. The settings on this subtab
include:
•
Drive Mode – This parameter configures the pin to provide one of the eight available pin
drive modes. The defaults and legal choices are influenced from the selections on the
Type subtab. Refer to the device data sheet for more details on each drive mode. A
diagram shows the circuit representation for each drive mode as they are selected.
•
If the type is Digital Input or Digital Input/Analog, the default is High Impedance Digital.
•
If the pin type is Analog, the default is High Impedance Analog.

Pins
PSoC® Creator™ Component Data Sheet
•
If the pin type is Bidirectional or Bidirectional/Analog, the default is Open Drain, Drives
Low.
•
All other pin types default to Strong Drive.
The diagram for each drive mode is as follows:
Note If any of the three drive modes (resistive pull-up, resistive pull down, resistive pull-up &
down) is used, choosing the output drive level to be Vref will not work.
•
Initial State – This parameter specifies the pin specific initial value written to the pin’s
Data Register after Power-On Reset (POR). All pins default to a logic low (0) in hardware
at POR. The Initial State is written to the pin just after the Drive Mode is configured, which
occurs as part of the configuration of the entire device. The Initial State is configured high
by default only for the “Resistive Pull Up” and “Resistive Pull Up/Down” drive-modes to
ensure the pull up resistor is active.
Note This should not be confused with the reset state under the main Reset tab. That
attribute affects the state of the whole port that the pin is a member of, from the moment
of reset, before any other device configuration.
•
Minimum Supply Voltage – This parameter selects the requested minimum high logic
level output voltage. The requested voltage must be provided by one of the Vddio supply
inputs. This selection ensures that the Pins component will be mapped onto pins that can
support its required output voltage. If left blank, the component has no voltage
requirements, allowing placement to a pin supplied by any of the available Vddio voltages.
Valid values are determined by the settings in the System tab of the <project>.cydwr file
for Vio0/Vio1/Vio2/Vio3 Vio3 and to a lesser extent Vddd. Depending on the selected
device, you may have two USB pins that will use Vddd as their voltage available for
placement. The pin will not be placeable if this value is not less than or equal to the
maximum value set for those settings. This range check is performed outside this dialog;
the results will appear in the Notice List window if the check fails.

Input Subtab
The Input subtab is used to specify input settings. If the pin type does not enable Input or
Bidirectional in the Type subtab, this subtab is disabled as no input information needs to be
specified.
•
•
Threshold – This parameter selects the threshold levels that define a logic high level (1)
and a logic low level (0). CMOS is the default and should be used for the vast majority of
application connections. The other threshold levels allow for easy interconnect with
devices with custom interface requirements that differ from that of CMOS. Thresholds that
are derived from Vddio or Vref require the use of an SIO pin.
•
CMOS – Default
•
LVTTL
•
CMOS or LVTTL
•
0.5 x Vddio – Requires SIO
•
0.4 x Vddio – Requires SIO
•
0.5 x Vref – Requires SIO
•
Vref – Requires SIO
Hysteresis – Enables or Disables the SIO differential hysteresis for the pin. This feature
is disabled if the Threshold is CMOS or LVTTL. Hysteresis control requires the use of an
SIO pin. GPIO pins always have hysteresis enabled.

Interrupt – This parameter selects whether the pin is able to generate an interrupt and, if
selected, the interrupt type. The pin interrupt may be generated with a rising edge, falling
edge, as well as both edges. If set to anything but None, the component must be
configured to be contiguous to ensure it is mapped into a single physical port. A single
port is required because all pins in a port logically OR their interrupts together and
generate a single interrupt signal and symbol terminal.
•
None - Default
•
Rising edge
•
Falling edge
•
Any edge
Hot Swap – A pin configured for hot swap capability will be mapped to an SIO pin
supporting this capability in hardware. Hot Swap capability allows the voltage present on
the pin to rise above the pin’s Vddio voltage, up to 6.0V. Hot Swap also does not allow a
pin with any voltage up to 6.0V present not leak current into the PSoC device even when
the PSoC device is not powered. Hot swap is useful for connecting the PSoC device when
unpowered to a communications bus like I2C without shorting the bus or back powering
the PSoC device.
•
No - Default
•
Yes – Requires SIO
Input Buffer Enabled – This parameter determines if the pin’s digital input buffer is
enabled. The digital buffer is required to read or use the logic level present on a pin
through DSI routing or a CPU read. The input buffer is required to use the pin as a digital
input. Analog pins disable the digital input buffer by default to reduce pin leakage in low
power modes. If the pin type is Analog, the default is Disabled. All other pin types
including combinations that include Analog default to Enabled. The input buffers should
be disabled to reduce current when not needed especially with analog signals.
•
Enabled
•
Disabled
Input Synchronized – Input Synchronization occurs at pins to ensure all signals entering
the device are synchronized to bus_clk. Input synchronization may be optionally disabled
at the pin in limited cases where an asynchronous signal is required for application
performance and does not violate device operational requirements. Refer to the TRM or
device data sheet for use details.
•
Yes - Default
•
No

Pins
Output Subtab
The Output subtab is used to specify output settings. If the type is not Output or Bidirectional this
tab is disabled because no output information needs to be specified.
•
•
Slew Rate – The slew rate parameter determines the rise and fall ramp rate for the pin as
it changes output logic levels. Fast mode is required for signals that switch at greater than
1 MHz Slow mode may be selected for signals less than 1 MHz switching rate and benefit
from slower transition edge rates reducing radiated EMI and coupling with neighboring
signals.
•
Fast – Default
•
Slow
Drive Level – Selects the output drive voltage supplied sourced by the pin. All pins are
capable of supplying their respective Vddio supply voltage. SIO pins are also able to
supply a programmable or analog routed voltage for interface with devices at a different
potential than the SIOs Vddio voltage.
•
Vddio – Default
•
Vref – Requires SIO
Note If any of the three drive modes (resistive pull-up, resistive pull-down, resistive pull-up &
down) is used, choosing the output drive level to be Vref will not work.
•
Drive Current – The drive current selection determines the maximum nominal logic level
current required for a specific pin. Pins may supply more current at the cost of logic level
compliance or may have a maximum value that is less than listed, based on system
voltages. Refer to the device data sheet for more details on drive currents.
•
4mA source, 8mA sink – Default

•
4mA source, 25mA sink – Requires SIO
Output Synchronized – Output Synchronization can be enabled to reduce pin to pin
output signal skew in high speed signals requiring minimal signal skew. The output signal
is synchronized to bus_clk. Please see the TRM or device data sheet for use details.
•
Disabled - Default
•
Enabled
Mapping Tab
The Mapping tab contains parameters that define how the Pins component is displayed in the
schematic view and mapped on to physical pins.
Display as Bus
Selects whether to display individual terminals for each pin or a single wide terminal (bus). The
bus option is only valid when pins are homogeneous. That means all pins in the component have
the same pin type, output/input HW connections, and SIO grouping. They also all must either
use or not use the SIO Vref. Displaying as a bus is useful when many of the same type of pin are
required. This saves schematic space and time to configure and route.
Contiguous
Check box to force placement in adjacent physical pins within a port. Actual pin placement is
package dependent according to the device datasheet. This option has the following restrictions:
•
If contiguous, port level APIs will be generated for the component. If noncontiguous, port
level APIs will not be generated.

Document Number: 001-62632 Rev. *A
PSoC® Creator™ Component Data Sheet
•
Pins
If contiguous, the number of pins in the component needs to be less than or equal to 8.
Spanning
Check box to allow placement in multiple physical ports. This is currently controlled by the
contiguous selection, where contiguous implies nonspanning and noncontiguous implies
spanning. A future release of the software will support separate control of the Spanning
parameter.

PSoC® Creator™ Component Data Sheet
Power-On Reset
The Power-On Reset (POR) setting on a physical pin is a semi-permanent attribute that should
not be re-written frequently. The POR setting determines how the pin behaves out of reset and is
not the same as the drive mode, which is set during the boot process. In almost all cases, the
hardware default of Hi-Z is appropriate and this parameter does not need to be changed. Note
that the Power-On Reset setting is a per-port setting so all pins placed in the same physical port
must have the same value (or be set to Don't Care in which case they will all end up with the
same value).
Warning: Care should be taken during development if this setting is changed. Excessive reprogramming of the POR setting will cause the pin to fail. See the device datasheet for the
maximum number of NVL write cycles. It is recommended that this is left as “Don't Care” so that
the pin is not reprogrammed when you download the application. If the POR setting must have a
specific value, be sure to lock the pin so that it does not move and cause new pins to be
programmed each time you change your design.
•
Don't Care – Default. When left set to Don't Care, the POR will be determined by the
physical port in which this component is placed. If all the placed pins in the port are set to
Don't Care, the default POR of the part will be used. Otherwise, whatever POR is
specified for the other pins placed in that physical port (they must all match) will be used
for the ones set to Don't Care.

Pins
Application Programming Interface
Application Programming Interface (API) routines allow you to configure and use the component
using software. The Pins component enables access on a per-pin and component-wide basis.
Per-Pin APIs
You can access individual pins in the component by using the global APIs defined in the cypins.h
generated file (in the cy_boot directory). These APIs are documented in the System Reference
Guide (Help > Documentation) and include:
•
CyPins_ReadPin()
•
CyPins_SetPin()
•
CyPins_ClearPin()
•
CyPins_SetPinDriveMode()
•
CyPins_ReadPinDriveMode()
These APIs can be used with either physical pin register names or the pin alias from the
component. Accessing physical pins directly from software is not recommended because there is
no safeguard against the same pins being allocated to other functions by the tool. Even if a pin is
only ever accessed from software, Cypress strongly recommends the use of a Pins component.
You can use the generated aliases from the component with the above APIs to safely access
individual pins without a performance or memory penalty.
To use the above APIs, the component generates aliases for the pin registers in the
CyPins_aliases.h file. By default the alias is the component name with the pin number appended
to it:
CyPins_x
- x is the pin within the component (0 based)
If you provide an alias name in the Pins configuration dialog, then an additional #define is
created with the form:
CyPins_<AliasName>
Component APIs
These APIs access all pins in the component in a single function call. Efficient implementation of
component-wide APIs is only possible if all pins are placed in a single physical port on the
device. They are only generated if the component is configured to be contiguous. Noncontiguous Pins components only allow access on the per-pin basis described above.
By default, PSoC Creator assigns the instance name "Pin_1" to the first instance of a Pins
component in a given design. You can rename it to any unique value that follows the syntactic
rules for identifiers. The instance name becomes the prefix of every global function name,
variable, and constant symbol.

PSoC® Creator™ Component Data Sheet
The following table lists and describes the interface to each function. The subsequent sections
cover each function in more detail.
Function
Description
uint8 Pin_1_Read(void)
Reads the physical port and returns the current value for all pins in the
component.
void Pin_1_Write(uint8 value)
Writes the value to the component pins while protecting other pins in
the physical port if shared by multiple Pins components.
uint8 Pin_1_ReadDataReg(void)
Reads the current value of the port’s data output register and returns
the current value for all pins in the component.
void Pin_1_SetDriveMode(uint8 mode)
Sets the drive mode for each of the Pins component’s pins.
uint8 Pin_1_ClearInterrupt(void)
Clears any active interrupts on the port into which the component is
mapped. Returns value of interrupt status register.
uint8 Pin_1_Read(void)
Description:
Reads the associated physical port (pin status register) and masks the required bits
according to the width and bit position of the component instance. The pin’s status
register returns the current logic level present on the physical pin.
Parameters:
None
Return Value:
The current value for the pins in the component as a right justified number.
Side Effects:
None
void Pin_1_Write(uint8 value)
Description:
Writes the value to the physical port (data output register), masking and shifting the bits
appropriately. The data output register controls the signal applied to the physical pin in
conjunction with the drive mode parameter. This function avoids changing other bits in the
port by using the appropriate method (read-modify-write or bit banding).
Parameters:
uint8 value: Value to write to the component instance.
Return Value:
None
Side Effects:
Due to the use of read-modify write operations that are not atomic; it is possible for
Interrupt Service Routines (ISR) to cause corruption of this API. An ISR that interrupts
this API and performs writes to the Pins component Data register may cause corrupted
port data. To avoid this issue it is recommended to either use the Per-Pin APIs (primary
method) or disable interrupts around this API.

PSoC® Creator™ Component Data Sheet
Pins
uint8 Pin_1_ReadDataReg(void)
Description:
Reads the associated physical port’s data output register and masks the correct bits
according to the width and bit position of the component instance. The data output
register controls the signal applied to the physical pin in conjunction with the drive mode
parameter. This is not the same as the preferred Pin_1_Read() API because the
Pin_1_ReadDataReg() reads the data register instead of the status register. For output
pins this is a useful API to determine the value just written to the pin.
Parameters:
None
Return Value:
The current value of the data register masked and shifted into a right justified number for
the component instance.
Side Effects:
None
void Pin_1_SetDriveMode(uint8 mode)
Description:
Sets the drive mode for each of the Pins component’s pins.
Parameters:
uint8 mode: mode for the selected signals. Defined legal options are:
Pin_1_DM_STRONG
(Strong Drive)
Pin_1_DM_OD_HI
(Open Drain, Drives High)
Pin_1_DM_OD_LO
(Open Drain, Drives Low)
Pin_1_DM_RES_UP
(Resistive Pull Up)
Pin_1_DM_RES_DWN
(Resistive Pull Down)
Pin_1_DM_RES_UPDWN
(Resistive Pull Up / Down)
Pin_1_DM_DIG_HIZ
(High Impedance Digital)
Pin_1_DM_ALG_HIZ
(High Impedance Analog)
Return Value:
None
Side Effects:
Due to the use of read-modify write operations that are not atomic it is possible for
Interrupt Service Routines (ISR) to cause corruption of this API. An ISR that interrupts
this API and performs writes to the Pins component Drive Mode registers may cause
corrupted port data. To avoid this issue it is recommended to either use the Per-Pin APIs
(primary method) or disable interrupts around this API.
uint8 Pin_1_ClearInterrupt(void)
Description:
Clears any active interrupts attached with the component and returns the value of the
interrupt status register allowing determination of which pins generated an interrupt
event.
Parameters:
None
Return Value:
uint8: The right shifted current value of the interrupt status register. Each pin has one bit
set if it generated an interrupt event. For example bit 0 is for pin 0 and bit 1 is for pin 1 of
the Pin component.
Side Effects:
Clears all bits of the physical port’s interrupt status register, not just those associated
with the Pins component.

Reset applies to an entire physical port.
1.20
Clarification.
Display as Bus now gives an error if checked and the Pins component is not homogeneous. The
homogeneous check has been extended to include the HW connections settings.
The only changes needed to go from the older version to the new would come from having 'Display as
Bus' checked and having some HW connections unchecked.
