INTERRUPTS

The Cyclone EP has seven interrupt sources. The CPU module assumes the interrupts are direct
mapped. Table 3-7 lists the interrupt sources and the corresponding XINT signals. All interrupts are
level sensitive except the Squall II Module IRQ0 and IRQ1; these are dependent on the particular Squall
II Module installed.
The Sx and Kx processors have only four dedicated interrupt signals. A dip switch is provided on the Sx
and Kx CPU modules to map the six possible interrupt sources to the four direct mapped interrupt
inputs. Table 3-8 outlines the interrupt mapping for the Sx and Kx CPU modules.
The interrupt sources to INT1 and INT2 are selected using SW-1 on Sx and Kx modules. Table 3-9
shows all valid combinations. Positions 1 and 2 select the interrupt source to INT1 and both cannot be
ON or OFF simultaneously. Likewise, positions 3 and 4 select the interrupt source to INT2 and both
cannot be ON or OFF simultaneously.
