System Integration Module (SIM)
9.4.3 SIM Counter and Reset States
External reset has no effect on the SIM counter. See 9.6.2 Stop Mode for details. The SIM counter is
free-running after all reset states. See 9.3.2 Active Resets from Internal Sources for counter control and
internal reset recovery sequences.
9.5 Program Exception Control
Normal, sequential program execution can be changed in three different ways:
• Interrupts
– Maskable hardware CPU interrupts
– Non-maskable software interrupt instruction (SWI)
• Reset
• Break interrupts
9.5.1 Interrupts
At the beginning of an interrupt, the CPU saves the CPU register contents on the stack and sets the
interrupt mask (I bit) to prevent additional interrupts. At the end of an interrupt, the RTI instruction recovers
the CPU register contents from the stack so that normal processing can resume. Figure 9-8 shows
interrupt entry timing. Figure 9-10 shows interrupt recovery timing.
Interrupts are latched, and arbitration is performed in the SIM at the start of interrupt processing. The
arbitration result is a constant that the CPU uses to determine which vector to fetch. Once an interrupt is
latched by the SIM, no other interrupt can take precedence, regardless of priority, until the latched
interrupt is serviced (or the I bit is cleared), see Figure 9-9.
