Push-Pull Mode 6.4.1.2
The push-pull mode has the same pull-low structure as the quasi-bidirectional mode, but provides a
continuous strong pull-high when the port latch is written by logic 1. The push-pull mode is generally
used as output pin when more source current is needed for an output driving.

Input-Only Mode 6.4.1.3
Input-only mode provides true high-impedance input path. Although a quasi-bidirectional mode I/O can
also be an input pin, but it requires relative strong input source. Input-only mode also benefits to power
consumption reduction for logic 0 input always consumes current from V

if in quasi-bidirectional
mode. User needs to take care that an input-only mode pin should be given with a determined voltage
level by external devices or resistors. A floating pin will induce leakage current especially in Power-
down mode.
