writeDigitalPin

Write logical value to GPIO output pin

Since R2021b

Syntax

writeDigitalPin(hwobj,pinNumber,value)

Description

writeDigitalPin(hwobj,pinNumber,value) sets the logical value of a GPIO pin to 0 or 1.

If the pin is not configured, this function configures the pin as a GPIO output.

If the pin is a GPIO input, or if another interface (I2C, Serial, SPI) uses the pin, this method returns an error message.

Examples

Configure Pin as Output and Write Its Value

Configure a GPIO pin as a digital output and write its logical value.

Create a connection from the MATLAB^® software to the NVIDIA^® Jetson™ board.

hwobj = jetson

hwobj = 

  jetson with properties:

           DeviceAddress: 'jetson-board-name'
                    Port: 22

The AvailableDigitalPins property shows the list of available digital GPIO pins.

Show the location of all the GPIO pins on your device.

showPins(hwobj)

Display the AvailableDigitalPins.

hwobj.AvailableDigitalPins

ans =

7    11    12    13    15    16    18    19    
21    22    23    24    29    31    32    33    
35    36    37    38    40

Connect your digital device to an available GPIO pin, for example GPIO 11.

Configure pin GPIO 11 as a digital output.

configurePin(hwobj,11,'DigitalOutput')   

Write a logical value of 1 to pin GPIO 11.

writeDigitalPin(hwobj,11,1)

The logical value of 1 sets the signal voltage on pin GPIO 11 to high.

Input Arguments

hwobj — Connection to a specific NVIDIA hardware board

jetson object

Connection to a specific NVIDIA hardware board, specified as a jetson object.

pinNumber — GPIO pin number

scalar

GPIO pin number, specified as a scalar. This argument does not accept vectors because the hardware cannot access multiple pins simultaneously.

To get a list of valid pin numbers, use the AvailableDigitalPins property of the jetson object. For example, hwobj.AvailableDigitalPins.

Example: 12

Data Types: double

value — Logical value of pin

0 | 1 | true | false

Logical value of the pin, specified as a scalar.

Example: 1

Data Types: double | logical
