The pull-up resistor can be disabled by setting the PRDS bit in the PDMCR (Pad Module Configuration Register):
PRDS:
0 = Enable pull-up/pull-down devices
1 = Disable pull-up/pull-down devices
On power up, the PRDS bit is set to 0 and the pull-up resistor is active.
Note that PRDS is used to enable or disable devices in the pads related to SGPIO and all IMB module pads; that is, setting this bit will have an effect on functions other than the QADC inputs.
For additional information, refer to the attached example of how to set PRDS. You can see the following changes implemented in this model by double-clicking on the Target_LED block followed by double-clicking on each of the Header File and Model Initialization Function blocks.
Header File Custom Code: Adds
#include "m_usiu.h"
to the Target_LED.h generated header file.
Model Initialize Function Custom Code: Adds
/* disable the internal pull-up resistor */
USIU.PDMCR.B.PRDS = 1;
to the Target_LED.c generated source file.
These changes should set the PRDS bit and disable the pull-up resistor.
