4.4 Traces
Traces are enabled in interrupt control mode 2. Trace mode is not activated in interrupt control
mode 0, irrespective of the state of the T bit. For details of interrupt control modes, see section 5,
Interrupt Controller.
If the T bit in EXR is set to 1, trace mode is activated. In trace mode, a trace exception occurs on
completion of each instruction. Trace mode is not affected by interrupt mask bit in CCR. Table 4.3
shows the states of CCR and EXR after execution of trace exception handling. Trace mode is
cancelled by clearing the T bit in EXR to 0 with the trace exception handling. The T bit saved on
the stack retains its value of 1, and when control is returned from the trace exception handling
routine by the RTE instruction, trace mode resumes. Trace exception handling is not carried out
after execution of the RTE instruction.
Interrupts are accepted even within the trace exception handling routine.

4.5 Interrupts
Interrupts are controlled by the interrupt controller. The interrupt controller has two interrupt
control modes and can assign interrupts other than NMI to eight priority/mask levels to enable
multiplexed interrupt control. The source to start interrupt exception handling and the vector
address differ depending on the product. For details, refer to section 5, Interrupt Controller.
Interrupt exception handling is conducted as follows:
1. The values in the program counter (PC), condition code register (CCR), and extended control
register (EXR) are saved to the stack.
2. The interrupt mask bit is updated and the T bit is cleared to 0.
3. A vector address corresponding to the interrupt source is generated, the start address is loaded
from the vector table to the PC, and program execution begins from that address.
