5.4.2Port C Signals and Registers

Each of the six Port C signals not used as an ESSI0 signal can be configured as a GPIO signal. Three registers control the GPIO functionality of Port C: Port C control register (PCRC), Port C direction register (PRRC), and Port C data register (PDRC). Chapter 7, Enhanced Synchronous Serial Interface (ESSI) discusses these registers.
