Digital Input Pattern Match Interrupt
Digital input channels can also generate an interrupt by detecting a specific pattern.
The pattern can be configured by ports, and each channel can be enabled or dis-
abled the detection independently. For example, if channels 0, 1, 2, 3, 6, and 7 of a
digital input port is pattern match detect enabled, and the pattern is "10xx0100"
(channel 7 through 0, where x indicates don't care bit), the pattern match interrupt will
be generated as shown in Figure 3.24.

Digital Input Debounce Filter
To prevent false interrupts due to noise or bouncing in the signal, the digital input sig-
nals can be filtered. If digital input filter is enabled, transient signals with duration
smaller than the filter duration will be considered as glitches and will not generate
interrupts as shown in Figure 3.25. Digital input debounce filter can be enabled or
disabled independently for each channel, and filter duration can be configured by
ports (8 channels).
