#39337 - RE: Port Voltage
Responding to: ???'s previous message
This has been discussed many times already. Resumé:
1. Don't drive loads directly from uC ports; use a driver, e.g. a simple transistor.
2. The ports are not good at sourcing current; if the output is logical high, the output current is limited. When you draw too much current, the voltage obviously will drop. See the datasheet.
