External Interrupt (IRQ)
9.5 IRQ Module During Break Interrupts
The system integration module (SIM) controls whether the IRQ interrupt latch can be cleared during the
break state. The BCFE bit in the SIM break flag control register (SBFCR) enables software to clear the
latches during the break state.
To allow software to clear the IRQ latch during a break interrupt, write a 1 to the BCFE bit. If a latch is
cleared during the break state, it remains cleared when the MCU exits the break state.
To protect the latch during the break state, write a 0 to the BCFE bit. With BCFE at 0 (its default state),
writing to the ACK bit in the IRQ status and control register during the break state has no effect on the
IRQ latch.
9.6 IRQ Status and Control Register
The IRQ status and control register (ISCR) controls and monitors operation of the IRQ module. The ISCR
has these functions:
• Shows the state of the IRQ interrupt flag
• Clears the IRQ interrupt latch
• Masks IRQ interrupt request
• Controls triggering sensitivity of the IRQ interrupt pin

IRQF — IRQ Flag Bit
This read-only status bit is high when the IRQ interrupt is pending.
1 = IRQ interrupt pending
0 = IRQ interrupt not pending
ACK — IRQ Interrupt Request Acknowledge Bit
Writing a 1 to this write-only bit clears the IRQ latch. ACK always reads as 0. Reset clears ACK.
IMASK — IRQ Interrupt Mask Bit
Writing a 1 to this read/write bit disables IRQ interrupt requests. Reset clears IMASK.
1 = IRQ interrupt requests disabled
0 = IRQ interrupt requests enabled
MODE — IRQ Edge/Level Select Bit
This read/write bit controls the triggering sensitivity of the IRQ pin. Reset clears MODE.
1 = IRQ interrupt requests on falling edges and low levels
0 = IRQ interrupt requests on falling edges only
