@User what's the point of having a

io_oen

when the management soc is configuring the io pads either as USER_STD_OUTPUT or USER_STD_INPUT? If we have configured a certain pin to be USER_STD_OUTPUT will the

io_oen

coming from the user area become a don't care?

Well ... I have pins that dynamically change between input and output for instance. (Bidirectional bus)

Io_en also has to be correct otherwise your signals won't get out

So if you have configured it as USER_STD_OUTPUT but your

io_oen

is oxFFFF which means you are expecting input the pad actually won't act as input right @tnt?

Yes I think the reason for it is bi directional signals, but I haven't seen inputs from the pads working yet so unsure how you would configure a pad from firmware to be bidirectional
