Pad pull details for digital I/O
nppdpukp
Programmable pull resistor. The default pull direction is indicated using capital
letters and is a prefix to other programmable options:
NP:pdpukp = default no-pull with programmable options following the colon (:)
PD:nppukp = default pull-low (pull-down) with programmable options following
the colon (:)
PU:nppdkp = default pull-high (pull-up) with programmable options following the
colon (:)
KP:nppdpu = default keeper with programmable options following the colon (:)
KP
Contains an internal weak keeper device (keepers cannot drive external buses)
NP
Contains no internal pull
PU
Contains an internal pull-high device
PD
Contains an internal pull-low device
