Global Interrupt
The global interrupt logic is implemented with three registers—the global
interrupt mask register (
CAN_GIM
), where each interrupt source can be
enabled or disabled separately; the global interrupt status register
(
CAN_GIS
); and the global interrupt flag register (
CAN_GIF
). The interrupt
mask bits only affect the content of the global interrupt flag register
(
CAN_GIF
). If the mask bit is not set, the corresponding flag bit is not set
when the event occurs. The interrupt status bits in the global interrupt
status register, however, are always set if the corresponding interrupt event
occurs, independent of the mask bits. Thus, the interrupt status bits can
be used for polling of interrupt events.
The global interrupt output (
GIRQ
) bit in the global interrupt status regis-
ter is only asserted if a bit in the
CAN_GIF
register is set. The
GIRQ
bit
remains set as long as at least one bit in the interrupt flag register
CAN_GIF
is set. All bits in the interrupt status and in the interrupt flag registers
remain set until cleared by software or a software reset has occurred.
There are several interrupt events that can activate this
GIRQ
interrupt:
•
Access denied interrupt
(
ADIM
,
ADIS
,
ADIF
)
At least one access to the mailbox RAM occurred during a data
update by internal logic.
•
External trigger output interrupt
(
EXTIM
,
EXTIS
,
EXTIF
)
The external trigger event occurred.
•
Universal counter exceeded interrupt
(
UCEIM
,
UCEIS
,
UCEIF
)
There was an overflow of the universal counter (in time stamp
mode or event counter mode) or the counter has reached the value
0x0000 (in watchdog mode).
