        Hai,   
   
I am working on AVNET SPARTAN 3A Evaluation KIT.   
I just used a 26bit counter code in the FPGA and   
I send the MS 3 bits of the counter to the PSoC.   
In the PSoC , I just forward the input signal to   
the output port.   
   
   
The input pins of teh PSoC are P2(5), P2(7) and   
P4(6) which are connected with the FPGA I/Os.   
The output pins of the PSoC are P0(1), P0(3)   
and p0(5) , which are connected with the   
connector J9.   
   
I am noticing the counter signal at the input   
of the PSoC, But not at the Output pins.   
   
I have given the PSoC main.c code below.   
If it is required I can give the VHDL code also.   
   
Please help me, to find out the problem   
with my code.   
   
Thank You.

I think that you are not checking the input port value properly. Try the following code instead:

   

if ((PRT2DR &= 0x20) > 0)

   

{

   

// put the bit toggling code here.

   

}

Hi,

   

In PSoC Designer, first confirm that your inputs are set to "HIGH Z", not "HIGH_Z Analog".

   

Next, check that the output pins are set as outputs, eg, "Strong Slow".

   

Then to read  the inputs use

   

while (1)
{
   if (PRT2DR & 0x20)        //if pin P2.5 is set
   {
      PRT0DR |= 0x20;         // set pin P0.5
   }
   else
  {
      PRT0DR &= ~0x20;         // clear pin P0.5
  }
}

   

This should get you started. For more on GPIO see the following url:
