4. Write the corresponding SIMR (mask register) bit with a 1 to allow interrupts to be

generated to the core.

5. The pin value can be read at any time using PDATC.

Note

After connecting CTS or CD to the SCC/FCC, the user must
also choose the normal operation mode in GSMR[DIAG] to
enable and disable SCC/FCC transmission and reception with
these pins.

The IDMA-DREQ lines in ports C can assert an external request to the CP instead of
asserting an interrupt to the core. Each line can be programmed to assert an interrupt request
upon a high-to-low change or any change as conÞgured in SIEXR.

Note

Do not program the IDMAx-DREQ pins to assert external
requests to the IDMA, unless the IDMA is used. Otherwise,
erratic operation occurs.
