INTERRUPT CONTROL UNIT
8.5.1.2
Indirectly Supported Internal Interrupt Sources
The interrupt request lines for DMA channel 0 and DMA channel 1 and the receive and transmit
interrupts for serial channel 1 are not tied internally to the Interrupt Control Unit. These interrupt
requests are routed to external device pins through the Port 3 multiplexer (Figure 8-23). If a sys-
tem requires interrupt support for these devices, the multiplexed interrupt request outputs must
be externally connected to the INT input pins of the Interrupt Control Unit.
