Hi

I have an issue on PSOC 5LP device.

There are 2 projects where I use a HEX rotary switch.

I do not use external pullup but rely on the digital pin onboard pull up resistors.

One project has the Switch connected to port pins P0.7 through to P0.4 and works fine. (and has worked fine like this for a couple of years I have built that project)

The other project has switch connected to pins P5.6 through P5.4 and LSB on P12.7 and I cannot read the switch properly. I only every get "1" or "0" from various switch settings. It appears P12.7 LSB works but no reading from the upper 3 bits on P5.

I checked Vio pins an they have 3.3V ok. The continuity between pins and switch are correct and there is no short. The switch is grounded correctly. If I remove power and measure continuity on switch as I change values, I get correct values.

This occurs on all the boards I build so I am confident it is not an assembly issue.

Is there something on port P5 when used as digital input that is different from P0? I am not sure what else to try.

Thanks

Hi,

At first I suspected that you are using a pin of following style

000-Pins_with_width.JPG

It may require to use same port to be configured from PSoC Creator GUI.

So I changed the schematic as below

Pin list

main.c

==========================

#include "project.h"

#include "stdio.h"

char str[128] ; /* print buffer */

void print(char *str)

{

    UART_PutString(str) ;

}

uint8_t read_enc(void)

{

    uint8_t value = 0 ;

    if (HexEnc3_Read()) {

        value |= 1 ;

    }

    value <<= 1 ;

    if (HexEnc2_Read()) {

        value |= 1 ;

    }

    value <<= 1 ;

    if (HexEnc1_Read()) {

        value |= 1 ;

    }

    value <<=1 ;

    if (HexEnc0_Read()) {

        value |= 1 ;

    }

    return(value) ;

}

void splash(void)

{

    sprintf(str, "GPIO Input Test (%s %s)\r\n",

        __DATE__, __TIME__) ;

    print(str) ;

}

int main(void)

{

    uint8_t value ;

    uint8_t pre_value = 0xFF ;

  

    CyGlobalIntEnable; /* Enable global interrupts. */

  

    UART_Start() ;

  

    splash() ;

    for(;;)

    {

        value = read_enc() ;

        if (value != pre_value) {

            sprintf(str, "%04X\n", value) ;

            print(str) ;

        }

        pre_value = value ;

        CyDelay(1000) ;

    }

}

==========================

Then I connect each pin to GND and VCC_via_resistor

the Tera Term output was

So I think that we can use P5[6], P5[5], P5[4], P12[7] as 4 bit input.

May be you need to double check your circuit, especially connection between the encoder and P5[] pins.

I used CY8CKIT-050
