B.3.7 Interrupts

Interrupts for MSP50C604 are the same as MSP50C614 in host mode except INT5 (port F interrupt) is not available. But in slave mode, INT3 and INT4 are external interrupts triggered by write sequence and read sequence as ex- plained before.

A summary of the interrupts is given below:

²INT6 and INT7 may be associated with the comparator function if the comparator enable bit has been set. See the section en- titled Comparator for details.

Note:

Interrupts may be lost if interrupts occur during power up or wake up from deep sleep mode.

The interrupts are generated as a divided signal from the master clock. The frequency of the several timer interrupts will therefore vary depending upon the operating master clock frequency.
