Function
7–0 PL7:0 Port Data Latch:
Writing a value to a PL bit causes that value to be driven onto the
corresponding pin.
For a complementary output, write the desired pin value to its PL bit.
This value is strongly driven onto the pin.
For an open-drain output, a one results in a high-impedance (input) state
at the pin.
For a high-impedance input, write a one to the corresponding PL bit. A
one results in a high-impedance state at the pin, allowing external
hardware to drive it.
