Register Definitions
Table 11-6 describes the bit settings for the GCR.
11.9.3 EPIC Interrupt Configuration Register (EICR)
The EICR provides programming control for the serial interrupt mode and the serial clock
frequency. Note that this register is read/write. Figure 11-6 shows the bits in the EICR.

Reset EPIC unit. Writing a one to this bit resets the EPIC controller logic. This bit is
cleared automatically when this reset sequence is complete. Setting this bit causes the
following:
• All pending and in-service interrupts are cleared.
• All interrupt mask bits are set.
• All timer base count values are reset to zero and count inhibited.
• The processor current task priority is reset to 0xF thus disabling interrupt delivery to
the processor.
• Spurious vector resets to 0xFF.
• EPIC defaults to pass-through mode.
• The serial clock ratio resets to 0x4.
All other registers remain at their pre-reset programmed values.

Mode
0 Pass-through mode. EPIC is disabled and interrupts detected on IRQ0 (active-high)
are passed directly to the processor core.
1 Mixed-mode. When this bit is set, EICR[SIE] determines whether the EPIC unit is
operating in direct or serial interrupts mode.
