12.8.2 Data Direction Register F (DDRF)

Data direction register F determines whether each port F pin is an input or an output. Writing a logic one to a DDRF bit enables the output buffer for the corresponding port F pin; a logic zero disables the output buffer.

DDRF[7:0] — Data Direction Register F Bits

These read/write bits control port F data direction. Reset clears DDRF[7:0], configuring all port F pins as inputs.

1 = Corresponding port F pin configured as output

0 = Corresponding port F pin configured as input

NOTE: Avoid glitches on port F pins by writing to the port F data register before changing data direction register F bits from 0 to 1.
