§GPIO
The GPIO module is used to configure GPIO pins through the PORT interface.
§Versions
There are currently two versions of the GPIO module. The inital GPIO API used a macro-heavy implementation, and it contained a few mistakes. The discussion in issue #214 spurred the creation of a new module with fewer macros and a corrected, refactored API.
The new module is provided in v2. The old module was removed, but a
compatibility shim is provided in v1 to support existing code. Users
should expect to eventually migrate to v2.
§Errors in v1
v2 fixes a number of errors in v1:
- v1implements an open-drain output mode, but SAMD chips do not have open-drain outputs. There is (almost) no mention of “open-drain” anywhere in the datasheets. In fact, the SAMD21 datasheet notes a removal of the term in Rev. E. Open-drain outputs have been has been removed in- v2.
- v1allows users to enable a pull-up resistor while in an output mode, but this is not possible for SAMD chips. There is no corresponding entry in the “Pin Configurations Summary” table in any of the three datasheets. Moreover, when a pull resistor is enabled for inputs, its direction is set using the- OUTbit, which would not be possible in an output mode.
- v1does not implement any of the disabled pin modes, i.e. when both- DIRand- INENare- 0. As a consequence, the state of- v1pins at reset is incorrect.- v1assumes they are in floating input mode, but they are actually in floating disabled mode.
§New features
The v2 module has several new features:
- Converting between pin modes no longer requires access to the Porttype.
For example, the follow code in v1,
let pins = peripherals.PORT.split();
let pa8 = pins.pa8.into_push_pull_output(&mut pins.port);would look like this in v2.
let pins = v2::Pins::new(peripherals.PORT);
let pa08 = pins.pa08.into_push_pull_output();As a consequence, pin mode conversions can now be implemented using
From/Into.
let pins = Pins::new(peripherals.PORT);
let pa08: Pin<PA08, PushPullOutput> = pins.pa08.into();- v2defines a new- AnyPintrait that can be used to simplify function arguments and reduce the number of type parameters required when dealing with GPIO pins.
- v2offers a type-erased,- DynPintype, for run-time tracking of pins.
- v2provides a new- bsp_pinsmacro to help BSP authors provide meaningful names and type aliases for their GPIO pins.
§Compatibility
The original v1 module has been removed. It has been replaced with a
compatibility shim to support existing code. The shim implements all v1
pin types in terms of v2::Pin. In fact, it declares its own v1::Pin
type as a newtype wrapper around a v2::Pin, and it defines the
individual Pa0, Pa1, etc. pin types as type aliases of the new
v1::Pin type.
As a consequence, it is easy to define the conversion between a v1::Pin
and its corresponding v2::Pin using From/Into.
let pins = peripherals.PORT.split();
let pa8: v1::Pa8<_> = pins.pa8;
let pa08 = v2::Pin<_, _> = pa8.into();Moreover, all v1::Pin and v2::Pin types implement the AnyPin
trait, which is particularly useful for supporting both module versions
simultaneously. See the AnyPin documentation for more details.
/// Take the v1 or v2 representation of pin PA08, in any mode, then convert
/// it to a push-pull output and set it high
fn example(pin: impl AnyPin<Id = PA08>) {
    let mut pin = pin.into().into_push_pull_output();
    pin.set_high().ok();

Structs§
- PartsDeprecated 
- Holds the GPIO Port peripheral and broken out pin instances
- PinDeprecated 
- Represents a GPIO pin with a corresponding PinIdandPinMode
- PortDeprecated 
- Opaque port reference
Traits§
- GpioExtDeprecated 
- The GpioExt trait allows splitting the PORT hardware into its constituent pin parts.
- IntoFunction Deprecated 
- A trait that makes it easier to generically manage
converting a pin from its current state into some
other functional mode.  The configuration change
requires exclusive access to the Port hardware,
which is why this isn’t simply the standard Intotrait.
- PinId
- Type-level enum for pin IDs
- PinMode
- Type-level enum representing pin modes
Type Aliases§
- FloatingDeprecated 
- Floating Input
- InputDeprecated
