7.3.6 GPIO locking mechanism
It is possible to freeze the GPIO control registers by applying a specific write sequence to
the GPIOx_LCKR register. The frozen registers are GPIOx_MODER, GPIOx_OTYPER,
GPIOx_OSPEEDR, GPIOx_PUPDR, GPIOx_AFRL and GPIOx_AFRH.
To write the GPIOx_LCKR register, a specific write / read sequence has to be applied. When
the right LOCK sequence is applied to bit 16 in this register, the value of LCKR[15:0] is used
to lock the configuration of the I/Os (during the write sequence the LCKR[15:0] value must
be the same). When the LOCK sequence has been applied to a port bit, the value of the port
bit can no longer be modified until the next MCU reset or peripheral reset. Each
GPIOx_LCKR bit freezes the corresponding bit in the control registers (GPIOx_MODER,
GPIOx_OTYPER, GPIOx_OSPEEDR, GPIOx_PUPDR, GPIOx_AFRL and GPIOx_AFRH.
The LOCK sequence (refer to Section 7.4.8: GPIO port configuration lock register
(GPIOx_LCKR) (x = A..H)) can only be performed using a word (32-bit long) access to the
GPIOx_LCKR register due to the fact that GPIOx_LCKR bit 16 has to be set at the same
time as the [15:0] bits.
For more details please refer to LCKR register description in Section 7.4.8: GPIO port
configuration lock register (GPIOx_LCKR) (x = A..H).
7.3.7 I/O alternate function input/output
Two registers are provided to select one of the alternate function inputs/outputs available for
each I/O. With these registers, the user can connect an alternate function to some other pin
as required by the application.
This means that a number of possible peripheral functions are multiplexed on each GPIO
using the GPIOx_AFRL and GPIOx_AFRH alternate function registers. The application can
thus select any one of the possible functions for each I/O. The AF selection signal being
common to the alternate function input and alternate function output, a single channel is
selected for the alternate function input/output of a given I/O.
To know which functions are multiplexed on each GPIO pin, refer to the device datasheet.
7.3.8 External interrupt/wakeup lines
All ports have external interrupt capability. To use external interrupt lines, the port must be
configured in input mode.Section 12: Extended interrupts and events controller (EXTI) and
to Section 12.3.2: Wakeup event management.
7.3.9 Input configuration
When the I/O port is programmed as input:
The output buffer is disabled
The Schmitt trigger input is activated
The pull-up and pull-down resistors are activated depending on the value in the
GPIOx_PUPDR register
The data present on the I/O pin are sampled into the input data register every AHB
clock cycle
A read access to the input data register provides the I/O state
Figure 19 shows the input configuration of the I/O port bit.
