Note: 0 = Always read as zeros; R = Read access; W = Write access; value following dash (–) is value after reset.

Bits 15–4

Reserved. Bits 15–4 are reserved and are always read as 0s.

Bit 3

TINT — Timer interrupt mask. Mask or unmask the internal timer interrupt, TINT, with
this bit.

TINT = 0

TINT is unmasked.

TINT = 1

TINT is masked.

Bit 2

INT3 — Interrupt 3 mask. Unmask external interrupt INT3 by writing a 1 to this bit.

INT3 = 0

INT3 is unmasked.

INT3 = 1

INT3 is masked.

Bit 1

INT2 — Interrupt 2 mask. Unmask external interrupt INT2 by writing a 1 to this bit.

INT2 = 0

INT2 is unmasked.

INT2 = 1

INT2 is masked.

Bit 0

INT1 — Interrupt 1 mask. Unmask external interrupt INT1 by writing a 1 to this bit.

INT1 = 0

INT1 is unmasked.

INT1 = 1

INT1 is masked.

11.3.2 IACK Pin

On the ’C209, the interrupt acknowledge signal is available at the external
IACK pin. The CPU generates this signal while it fetches the first word of any
of the interrupt vectors, whether the interrupt was requested by hardware or
by software. IACK is not affected by wait states; IACK goes low only on the first
cycle of the read when wait states are used. At reset, the interrupt acknowl-
edge signal is generated in the same manner as for a maskable interrupt.

Your external hardware can use the IACK signal to determine when the pro-
cessor acknowledges an interrupt. Additionally, when IACK goes low, the
hardware can sample the address pins (A15–A0) to determine which interrupt
the processor is acknowledging. Since the interrupt vectors are spaced apart
by two words, address pins A1–A4 can be decoded at the falling edge of IACK
to identify the interrupt being acknowledged.
