2.5.1.35 System Software Interrupt Request 1 Register (SSIR1)
The SSIR1 register, shown in
and described in
, is used for software interrupt
generation.

0
Reads return 0. Writes have no effect.
15-8
SSKEY1
0-FFh
System software interrupt request key. A 075h written to these bits initiates IRQ/FIQ interrupts.
Data in this field is always read as 0. The SSKEY1 field can be written into only if the write data
matches the key (75h). The SSDATA1 field can only be written into if the write data into this field,
the SSKEY1 field, matches the key (75h).
7-0
SSDATA1
0-FFh
System software interrupt data. These bits contain user read/write register bits. They may be used
by the application software as different entry points for the interrupt routine. The SSDATA1 field
cannot be written into unless the write data into the SSKEY1 field matches the key (75h);
therefore, byte writes cannot be performed on the SSDATA1 field.
NOTE:
This register is mirrored at offset FCh for compatibility reasons.
