Programming Model
The MSC8144E interrupt program model includes configuration of the global interrupt controller
and the general configuration block interrupt registers.
Note:
See the MSC8144 SC3400 DSP Core Subsystem Reference Manual for configuration
and programming of the EPIC registers.
13.5.1 Global Interrupt Controller
The virtual interrupt registers reside in a 256-byte address space (for more information see
Chapter 9, Memory Map) and include:
Virtual Interrupt Generation Register (VIGR)
Virtual Interrupt status register (VISR)
Virtual NMI Generation Register (VNMIGR)
Note:
The GIC registers use a base address of: 0xFFF27000.
13.5.1.1 Virtual Interrupt Generation Register (VIGR)
VIGR generates virtual interrupts according to the written data. The VIRQ generated corresponds
to the combination of {VIRQNUM_H, VIRQNUM_L}. A read from VIGR returns all zeros.
Notice that the supported values of {VIRQNUM_H, VIRQNUM_L} are 0 to 19.
