5.6.5
DTC Activation by Interrupt
The DTC can be activated by an interrupt. For details, see section 8, Data Transfer Controller
(DTC).
Note: No DTC is implemented in the H8S/2614 and H8S/2616.

Usage Notes
5.7.1
Contention between Interrupt Generation and Disabling
When an interrupt enable bit is cleared to 0 to disable interrupts, the disabling becomes effective
after execution of the instruction.
When an interrupt enable bit is cleared to 0 by an instruction such as BCLR or MOV, and if an
interrupt is generated during execution of the instruction, the interrupt concerned will still be
enabled on completion of the instruction, and so interrupt exception handling for that interrupt will
be executed on completion of the instruction. However, if there is an interrupt request of higher
priority than that interrupt, interrupt exception handling will be executed for the higher-priority
interrupt, and the lower-priority interrupt will be ignored.
The same also applies when an interrupt source flag is cleared to 0.
Figure 5.6 shows an example in which the TGIEA bit in the TPU's TIER_0 register is cleared to 0.
