2.5.11Interrupt Support
The EMIF has a single interrupt source (Table 13) mapped to the ARM interrupt controller. For more information on the ARM interrupt controller (AINTC), see the TMS320DM646x DMSoC ARM Subsystem Reference Guide (SPRUEP9).

The EMIF supports a single interrupt to the CPU. Section 2.5.11.1 details the generation and internal masking of EMIF interrupts and Section 2.5.11.2 describes how the EMIF interrupts are sent to the CPU.
2.5.11.1Interrupt Events
There are two conditions that may cause the EMIF to generate an interrupt to the CPU. These two conditions are:
•A rising edge on the EM_WAIT signal (wait rise interrupt)
•An asynchronous time out
The wait rise interrupt is not affected by the WPn bit in the asynchronous wait cycle configuration register (AWCCR). The asynchronous time out interrupt condition occurs when the attached asynchronous device fails to deassert the EM_WAIT pin within the number of cycles defined by the MEWC bit in AWCCR.
Only when the interrupt is enabled by setting the appropriate bit (WRMSETn or ATMSET) in the EMIF interrupt mask set register (EIMSR) to 1, will the interrupt be sent to the CPU. Once enabled, the interrupt may be disabled by writing a 1 to the corresponding bit in the EMIF interrupt mask clear register (EIMCR). The bit fields in both the EIMSR and EIMCR may be used to indicate whether the interrupt is enabled. When the interrupt is enabled, the corresponding bit field in both the EIMSR and EIMCR will have a value of 1; when the interrupt is disabled, the corresponding bit field will have a value of 0.
The EMIF interrupt raw register (EIRR) and the EMIF interrupt mask register (EIMR) indicate the status of each interrupt. The appropriate bit (WRn or AT) in EIRR is set when the interrupt condition occurs, whether or not the interrupt has been enabled. Whereas, the appropriate bit (WRMn or ATM) in EIMR is set only when the interrupt condition occurs and the interrupt is enabled. Writing a 1 to the bit in EIRR clears the EIRR bit as well as the corresponding bit in EIMR.
Table 14 contains a brief summary of the interrupt status and control bit fields. See Section 4 for complete details on the register fields.
