Interrupt Module (S12SINTV1)
4.5 Initialization/Application Information
4.5.1 Initialization
After system reset, software should:
1. Initialize the interrupt vector base register if the interrupt vector table is not located at the default
location (0xFF80–0xFFF9).
2. Enable I bit maskable interrupts by clearing the I bit in the CCR.
3. Enable the X bit maskable interrupt by clearing the X bit in the CCR.
4.5.2 Interrupt Nesting
The interrupt request scheme makes it possible to nest I bit maskable interrupt requests handled by the
CPU.
• I bit maskable interrupt requests can be interrupted by an interrupt request with a higher priority.
I bit maskable interrupt requests cannot be interrupted by other I bit maskable interrupt requests per
default. In order to make an interrupt service routine (ISR) interruptible, the ISR must explicitly clear the
I bit in the CCR (CLI). After clearing the I bit, other I bit maskable interrupt requests can interrupt the
current ISR.
An ISR of an interruptible I bit maskable interrupt request could basically look like this:
1. Service interrupt, e.g., clear interrupt flags, copy data, etc.
2. Clear I bit in the CCR by executing the instruction CLI (thus allowing other I bit maskable interrupt
requests)
3. Process data
4. Return from interrupt by executing the instruction RTI
4.5.3 Wake Up from Stop or Wait Mode
4.5.3.1 CPU Wake Up from Stop or Wait Mode
Every I bit maskable interrupt request is capable of waking the MCU from stop or wait mode. To determine
whether an I bit maskable interrupts is qualified to wake-up the CPU or not, the same conditions as in
normal run mode are applied during stop or wait mode:
• If the I bit in the CCR is set, all I bit maskable interrupts are masked from waking-up the MCU.
Since there are no clocks running in stop mode, only interrupts which can be asserted asynchronously can
wake-up the MCU from stop mode.
The X bit maskable interrupt request can wake up the MCU from stop or wait mode at anytime, even if the
X bit in CCR is set.
If the X bit maskable interrupt request is used to wake-up the MCU with the X bit in the CCR set, the
associated ISR is not called. The CPU then resumes program execution with the instruction following the
