ADVANCE INFORMATION for pre-production products; subject to change without notice.
The ADS1261-Q1 provides four GPIO pins, GPIO0 through GPIO3. The GPIOs are digital inputs/outputs that are referenced to analog AVDD and AVSS. The GPIOs are read and written by the GPIO_DAT bits of register MODE3. The GPIOs are multiplexed with analog inputs AIN2 to AIN5. As shown in Figure 20, the GPIOs have a series of programming registers. Bits GPIO_CON[3:0] connect the GPIOs to the associated pin (1 = connect). Bits GPIO_DIR program the direction of the GPIOs; (0 = output, 1 = input). The input voltage threshold is the voltage value between AVDD and AVSS. Bits GPIO_DAT[3:0] are the data values for the GPIOs. Observe that if a GPIO pin is programmed as an output, the value read is the value previously written to the register data, not the actual state of the pin.
The GPIOs also provide the AC-excitation drive signals. AC-excitation mode override the GPIO register data values. See the AC-Excitation Mode section for details.
