CHAPTER 11 EXTERNAL INTERRUPT CIRCUIT (EDGE)
11.5 Operation of the External Interrupt Circuit
The external interrupt circuit can detect a specified edge on a signal input to an external
interrupt pin.
■ Operation of the external interrupt circuit
Figure 11.5-1 "External interrupt circuit settings" shows the settings required to operate the external
interrupt circuit.
Figure 11.5-1 External interrupt circuit settings
If the polarity of an edge on the input signal to one of the external interrupt pins (INT0 - INT1) matches the
edge polarity specified for the pin in the external interrupt control register (EIC: SL11, SL10, SL01, SL00),
the external interrupt circuit sets the external interrupt request flag bit (EIC: EIR0 - EIR1) to "1".
The external interrupt request flag bit is set when the edge polarity match occurs, regardless of the value of
the interrupt request enable bit (EIC: EIE0 - EIE1).
Figure 11.5-2 "External interrupt (INT1) operation" shows the operation when an external interrupt is input
to the INT1 pin.

Reference:
The pin state can be read directly from the port data register (PDR4), even when used as an external
interrupt input.
