3.6GPIO Interface

The IXP45X/IXP46X network processors provide 16 general-purpose input/output pins for use in generating and capturing application specific input and output signals. Each individual pin can be programmed as either an input or output.

When programmed as an input, GPIO0 through GPIO12 can be configured to be an interrupt source. Interrupt sources can be configured to detect either active high, active low, rising edge, falling edge, or transitional. In addition, GPIO14 and GPIO15 can be programmed to provide a user-programmable clock out.

During reset, all pins are configured as inputs and remain in this state until configured otherwise, with the exception of GPIO15, which by default provides a clock output. The driver strength of GPIO pins is sufficient to drive external LEDs with a proper limiting resistor.
