Usage of RCC and NVIC functions in GPIO files

Dear All,

can anyone tell me that why RCC and NVIC firmware functions are used in toggling the any bit of any port.

I want to make a program which toggles the GPIOF_Pin6, but I found that there are RCC and NVIC functions used in the Firmware Examples files ''Firmware\examples\gpio\IOtoggles''

I need a simple program which just toggle the gpio bits without using RCC and NVIC.

Also tell me how I configure GPIO registers, what are the steps?

reply.

You must enable the GPIO clock in the RCC. NVIC is for interrupts.

Enable the relevent GPIO clock in the RCC.

Set the GPIO configuration register (to output, probably push-pull)

Toggle the GPIO output data register.

There are quite a few threads about this already:

(you can search the forum for others)

Perhaps we need a how-to-toggle-a-port sticky.
