STM32F437 and PI8 as output IO

Hi, guys.

I am using STM32F437 and trying to use PI8 as  an output port.

I am trying to program it using standard procedures:

 RCC_AHB1PeriphClockCmd(RCC_AHB1Periph_GPIOI, ENABLE);

  GPIO_InitTypeDef  GPIO_InitStructure;

  GPIO_InitStructure.GPIO_Pin = GPIO_Pin_8;

  GPIO_InitStructure.GPIO_Mode = GPIO_Mode_OUT;

  GPIO_InitStructure.GPIO_OType = GPIO_OType_PP;

  GPIO_InitStructure.GPIO_PuPd = GPIO_PuPd_UP;

  GPIO_InitStructure.GPIO_Speed = GPIO_Speed_2MHz;

  GPIO_Init(GPIOI, &GPIO_InitStructure);

  GPIOI->BSRRL=GPIO_Pin_8; // Set logical 1

As the result, I see always logical 0 on the output.

I know that this pin has some additional features from RTC.

What should I do to use this port as standard IO in output mode?

Regards, George.

It is in the low power domain is has low current drive capabilities.

What are you driving it into?

Use an external buffer.

In a no load condition, toggle it and scope

while(1) GPIOI->ODR ^=GPIO_Pin_8;

I have only an external 10k pullup resistor on this pin, its output is always logical 0.

What is wrong? Should I do anything additional to switch this pin to IO mode?

I don't believe there is anything special that needs to be done, it is not a part I have access to.

The PI8 pin is not bonded out in several packages, your part number is insufficiently complete for me to make a specific determination.

on my new board PI8 is Tamper2, so it is a little special.

I didnt run it up yet, I hope it works...
