Remarks 1. The default priority is a fixed number. This indicates the order of priority when interrupt requests
specified as having the same priority are generated simultaneously.
2. ASI: Asynchronous serial interface
CSI: Clocked serial interface
3. The watchdog timer has two interrupt sources, a non-maskable interrupt (INTWDT) and a maskable
interrupt (INTWDTM), either (but not both) of which can be selected.
22.1.1 Software interrupts
Interrupts by software consist of the BRK instruction which generates a vectored interrupt and the BRKCS
instruction which performs context switching.
Software interrupts are acknowledged even in the interrupt disabled state, and are not subject to priority control.
22.1.2 Operand error interrupts
These interrupts are generated if there is an illegal operand in an MOV STBC, #byte instruction or MOV WDMC,
#byte instruction, and LOCATION instruction.
Operand error interrupts are acknowledged even in the interrupt disabled state, and are not subject to priority
control.
22.1.3 Non-maskable interrupts
A non-maskable interrupt is generated by NMI pin input or the watchdog timer.
Non-maskable interrupts are acknowledged unconditionally
subject to interrupt priority control, and are of higher priority that any other interrupt.
Note Except during execution of the service program for the same non-maskable interrupt, and during execution
of the service program for a higher-priority non-maskable interrupt
22.1.4 Maskable interrupts
A maskable interrupt is one subject to masking control according to the setting of an interrupt mask flag. In addition,
acknowledgment enabling/disabling can be specified for all maskable interrupts by means of the IE flag in the program
status word (PSW).
In addition to normal vectored interruption, maskable interrupts can be acknowledged by context switching and
macro service (though some interrupts cannot use macro service: refer to Table 22-2).
The priority order for maskable interrupt requests when interrupt requests of the same priority are generated
simultaneously is predetermined (default priority) as shown in Table 22-2. Also, multiprocessing control can be
performed with interrupt priorities divided into 4 levels. However, macro service requests are acknowledged without
regard to priority control or the IE flag.
