The fastest speed of GPIO

  I modified the code from Gpio_LedBlinky try to get max speed rate , CGU_BASE_PERIPH is set to 204MHz , only 6.5MHz is obtained , what's wrong with my code ?

The LPC4357 can toggle I/O lines in software at rates up to 102 MHz.

I used the following code running from SRAM to toggle PD_10 on the Keil MCB4300 board with the LPC4357 running at 204 MHz. Scope trace attached.

volatile uint32_t *gpset,*gpclr;
uint32_t gpmask;

scu_pinmux(0xD, 10, MD_EHS, FUNC4);
LPC_GPIO_PORT->DIR[6] |= 1<<24;
gpset = &LPC_GPIO_PORT->SET[6];
gpclr = &LPC_GPIO_PORT->CLR[6];
gpmask = 1<<24;
while (1)
{
*gpset = gpmask;
*gpclr = gpmask;
*gpset = gpmask;
*gpclr = gpmask;
*gpset = gpmask;
*gpclr = gpmask;
*gpset = gpmask;
*gpclr = gpmask;
*gpset = gpmask;
*gpclr = gpmask;
*gpset = gpmask;
*gpclr = gpmask;
*gpset = gpmask;
*gpclr = gpmask;
*gpset = gpmask;
*gpclr = gpmask;
}

If bit banding can be used as set output value , can it also be used as input value as variables ???

Bit banding is a special machine in the cortex Mx cores... a read-modify-write machine for single bits.

Read the data sheet!
The peripherial alias region is 0x42000000-0x44000000.

Bit banding is explained at:

Don't use the library for GPIO calls.

Use bit banding!
