UM001604-0108 Interrupts
102
The RAM Protect option is selected at ROM mask submission time or at EPROM program
time. If not selected or not an available option, this bit is reserved and must be 0.
Interrupt Request Register Initialization
The Interrupt Request Register (IRQ), displayed in Figure 98 on page 103, is a read/write
register that stores the interrupt requests for both vectored and polled interrupts. When an
interrupt is made on any of the six, the corresponding bit position in the register is set to 1.
Bit 0 to bit 5 are assigned to interrupt requests IRQ0 to IRQ5, respectively.
Whenever Power-On Reset (POR) is executed, the IRQ resister is reset to
00h
and dis-
abled. Before the IRQ register accepts requests, it must be enabled by executing an
ENABLE INTERRUPTS (EI) instruction.
Setting the Global Interrupt Enable bit in the Interrupt Mask Register (IMR, bit 7) does not
enable the IRQ. Execution of the EI instruction is required (see
Figure 99 on page 104).
For polled processing, IRQ must still be initialized by an EI instruction. To properly ini-
tialize the IRQ register, the following code is provided.
