Elcr2–Edge/Level Control Register (I/O)

I/O Address:

INT CNTRL-2–4D1h

Default Value:

00h

Attribute:

Read/Write

ELCR2 register allows IRQ[15,14,12:9] to be edge or level programmable on an interrupt by
interrupt basis. Note that, IRQ[13,8#] are not programmable and are always edge sensitive. When
level triggered, the interrupt is signaled active when input IRQ signal is high.
