Interrupts

Interrupt exception handling can be requested by seven external sources (NMI and IRQ5 to
IRQ0) and internal sources in the on-chip supporting modules. Figure 5.3 shows the interrupt
sources and the number of interrupts of each type.
The on-chip supporting modules that can request interrupts include the watchdog timer (WDT),
prescaler unit (PSU), Timers A, B, J, L, R and X1 (TMR), serial communication interface (SCI),
A/D converter (ADC), I
trap, etc. Each interrupt source has a separate vector address.
NMI is the highest-priority interrupt. Interrupts are controlled by the interrupt controller. The
interrupt controller has two interrupt control modes and can assign interrupts other than NMI to
either three priority/mask levels to enable multiplexed interrupt control.
For details on interrupts, see section 6, Interrupt Controller.

Notes: Numbers in parentheses are the numbers of interrupt sources.
* When the watchdog timer is used as an interval timer, it generates an interrupt
request at each counter overflow.
