55.5.5. Interrupt Behavior
Every interrupt condition has an associated bit in the status register and an interrupt-enable bit in the control register. When any of the interrupt conditions occur, the associated status bit is set to 1 and remains set until it is explicitly acknowledged. The IRQ output is asserted when any of the status bits are set while the corresponding interrupt-enable bit is 1. A host peripheral can acknowledge the IRQ by clearing the status register.
At reset, all interrupt-enable bits are set to 0; therefore, the core cannot assert an IRQ until a host peripheral set one or more of the interrupt-enable bits to 1.
All possible interrupt conditions are listed with their associated status and control (interrupt-enable) bits. Details of each interrupt condition are provided in the status bit descriptions.
