22.3.2.8 Arbitration Lost Capture Register
ALC is the Arbitration Lost Capture Register. This register records the bit position at which
arbitration was lost.
When bus arbitration is lost:
• An Arbitration Lost Interrupt is generated (if enabled) and the current bit position of the
Bit Processor is captured into this Arbitration Lost Capture Register.
• The contents of this register are maintained until the register has been read by user
software. Then the capture mechanism is activated again.
The Arbitration Lost Capture Register appears to the CPU as Read Only memory. The
Reserved bits always return ‘0’.
