Setting I/O ports on 16f629

[Optech]

I have been programming a 16f876 for various control/signal generation applications for years using the TRISA=? line to set the ports to input or output.
I was hoping to use a smaller (8 pin) chip such as 16F629 to generate a asymmetrical squarewave to regulate a clock but the datasheet is set out very differently to the 876.
Does anyone know if I can use similar code to set the ports, and if not how is it done?
thanks.

Hi Optech. The command you're looking for is TRISIO. Use it just as you would TRISA. The 1's are inputs, 0's are outputs.

CMCON = 7 'comparators off
trisio = %11111111 'set all as inputs
DEFINE OSCCAL_1K 1 ' Set OSCCAL for 1K device

16F629?
Maybe a 12F629...
Yes, they are practically the same, but different.
The PBP manual explains the difference between Ports and GPIO's, TRISIO, etc.

Thanks for the info. I have now found the relevant section in the pbp manual although it refers to the 12f675. Also skimask, you were right it is 12f629 - just a typo - or brainfade - not quite sure which...
