4.2 GEVENT/GPE/GPM/ExtEvent
4.2.1 GEVENT as GPIO
GEVENT[1:0] are inputs only. Their status can be read from PM I/O Reg 92h Bit[1:0].
GEVENT[7:2] can be programmed either as GPIO lines or as GPE lines (see section 4.2.2).
PM I/O Reg 91h Bit[7:2] defines GEVENT[7:2] pins as output or input
0: Enable output
1: Tris-tate (input)
For GEVENT pins defined as output, PM I/O Reg 90h Bit[7:2] sets the output value
0: Output low
1: Output high
For GEVENT pins defined as input, PM I/O Reg 92h Bit[7:2] are used to read the input status.
GEVEN8 can be programmed either as GPIO line or as GPE line (see section 4.2.2).
PM I/O Reg 84h Bit[3] defines GEVENT8 pins as output or input
0: Enable output
1: Tris-tate (input)
For GEVENT8 pin defined as output, PM I/O Reg 84h Bit[2] sets the output value
0: Output low
1: Output high
For GEVENT8 pin defined as input, PM I/O Reg 84h Bit[4] is used to read the input status.
4.2.2 General Purpose Event (GPE)
The General Purpose Event (GPE) pins can generate wake events, SCI, SMI#, SMI# followed by SCI, or
IRQ13.
When not used as GPE pins, these pins may also be used as GPIO pins as described in sections 4.1.1,
4.2.1, 4.2.3, 4.2.4.
The GPE pins include:
GEVENT[8:0]
GPM[9:0]
EXTEVENT[1:0]
GPIO0, GPIO2, GPIO64
