Abstract
A processing device is provided. The processor of the processing device executes a first command to generate first setting values used to set the functions of the pins and writes the initial setting values into the register. When the initial setting values need to be changed to change the function of one or more pins, the processor executes a second command to generate second setting values used to set the functions of the pins and writes the second setting values into the register to replace the initial setting values. When the second setting values are written into the register, the register determines whether to replace the initial setting values with the second setting values according to the second setting values. When the register determines whether to replace the initial setting values with the second setting values, the register ignores the value 0 in the second setting values.
