8.3.2

IRQ Interrupts

IRQ interrupts are input by level or edge from pins IRQ0 to IRQ5. The priority level can be set by

interrupt priority registers C and D (IPRC and IPRD) in a range from 0 to 15.

When using edge-sensing for IRQ interrupts, clear the interrupt source by having software read 1

from the corresponding bit in IRR0, then write 0 to the bit.

When ICR1 is rewritten, IRQ interrupts may be mistakenly detected, depending on the IRQ pin

states. To prevent this, rewrite the register while interrupts are masked, then release the mask after

clearing the illegal interrupt by writing 0 to interrupt request register 0 (IRR0).

Edge input interrupt detection requires input of a pulse width of more than two cycles on a P clock

basis.

When using level-sensing for IRQ interrupts, the pin levels must be retained until the CPU

samples the pins. Therefore, the interrupt source must be cleared by the interrupt handler.

The interrupt mask bits (I3 to I0) in the status register (SR) are not affected by IRQ interrupt

handling. IRQ interrupts can be used for recovering from standby when the corresponding

interrupt level is higher than that of bits I3 to I0 in SR. (However, only when the RTC is used,

recovering from standby by using the clock for the RTC is enabled.)

8.3.3

IRL Interrupts

IRL interrupts are input by the

IRL3 to IRL0 pins as level. The priority level is the higher level

that is indicated by the

IRL3 to IRL0 pins. When the values of the IRL3 to IRL0 pins are 0

′0000), the highest level interrupt request (interrupt priority level 15) is indicated. When the

values of the pins are 15 (B

′1111), no interrupt is requested (interrupt priority level 0). Figure 8.2

shows an example of connection for an IRL interrupt. Table 8.3 lists the

IRL pins and interrupt

level.

IRL interrupts are included with a noise canceler function and detected when the sampled levels of

each peripheral module clock keep the same value for 2 cycles. This prevents sampling error level

IRL pin changing. In standby mode, a noise canceler is handled by the RTC clock (32 kHz)

because the peripheral module clocks are halted. Therefore, when the RTC is not used, recovering

from standby by IRL interrupts cannot be executed in standby mode.

The priority level of IRL interrupts should be kept until an interrupt is accepted and its handling is

started. However, changing to higher level is enabled.
