INTERRUPT PROCESSING CONTROL POINTS
Interrupt processing can therefore be controlled in two ways: globally or by specific interrupt level and source.
The system-level control points in the interrupt structure are:
— Global interrupt enable and disable (by EI and DI instructions or by direct manipulation of SYM.0 )
— Interrupt level enable/disable settings (IMR register)
— Interrupt level priority settings (IPR register)
— Interrupt source enable/disable settings in the corresponding peripheral control registers
When writing an application program that handles interrupt processing, be sure to include the necessary
register file address (register pointer) information.
