Peripheral Simulation

For STMicroelectronics STR731FV2 — Ports 0-6: 16-Bit I/O (GPIO0-GPIO6)

Simulation support for this peripheral or feature is comprised of:

• Dialog boxes which display and allow you to change peripheral configuration.
• VTREGs (Virtual Target Registers) which support I/O with the peripheral.

These simulation capabilities are described below.

I/O Port 0 Dialog

The GPIO Port 0 Dialog controls the direction of the general purpose port pins. You may use the following controls to select and configure the GPIO port settings.

Port 0

• GPIO_PC0 - GPIO_PC2  (Port Bit Configuration Registers) specify how each I/O Port bit is configured (input, output, alternate function, etc.
• GPIO_PD  checkboxes represent the data bits output.
• Pins  allows you to manually set or clear individual pins for this port.

Digital I/O Ports 0-2 (16-Bit) VTREG
Data Type: unsigned short

The PORTx VTREGs represent the I/O pins of the simulated MCU for Port 0, Port 1, and so on. PORT0 represents Port 0, PORT1 represents Port 1, etc. You may read PORTx to determine the state of the output pins of that port. For example, in the command window you may type,

PORT0

to obtain value corresponding to the set pins of Port A. You may also change the input values of port pins by changing the value of the VTREG. For example,

PORT0=0x000000F0

sets the upper four port pins of Port 0 to a value of 1 and all other port pins to a value of 0. You may use the bitwise operators AND(&), OR(|) and XOR(^) to change individual bits of the PORTx VTREGs. For example:

PORT0 |=  0x00000001;  /* Set P0.0 Pin */
PORT1 &= ~0x00000200;  /* Clr P1.9 Pin */
PORT0 ^=  0x00800000;  /* Toggle P0.23 Pin */
