Interrupts

The PIC16F84A has 4 sources of interrupt:

• External interrupt RB0/INT pin

• TMR0 overflow interrupt

• PORTB change interrupts (pins RB7:RB4)

• Data EEPROM write complete interrupt

The interrupt control register (INTCON) records

individual interrupt requests in flag bits. It also contains

the individual and global interrupt enable bits.

The global interrupt enable bit, GIE (INTCON<7>),

enables (if set) all unmasked interrupts or disables (if

cleared) all interrupts. Individual interrupts can be

disabled through their corresponding enable bits in

INTCON register. Bit GIE is cleared on RESET.

The “return from interrupt” instruction, RETFIE, exits

interrupt routine as well as sets the GIE bit, which

re-enables interrupts.

The RB0/INT pin interrupt, the RB port change interrupt

and the TMR0 overflow interrupt flags are contained in

the INTCON register.

When an interrupt is responded to, the GIE bit is

cleared to disable any further interrupt, the return

address is pushed onto the stack and the PC is loaded

with 0004h. For external interrupt events, such as the

RB0/INT pin or PORTB change interrupt, the interrupt

latency will be three to four instruction cycles. The

exact latency depends when the interrupt event occurs.

The latency is the same for both one and two cycle

instructions. Once in the Interrupt Service Routine, the

source(s) of the interrupt can be determined by polling

the interrupt flag bits. The interrupt flag bit(s) must be

cleared in software before re-enabling interrupts to

avoid infinite interrupt requests.

INTERRUPT LOGIC

6.8.1

INT INTERRUPT

External interrupt on RB0/INT pin is edge triggered:

either rising if INTEDG bit (OPTION_REG<6>) is set,

or falling if INTEDG bit is clear. When a valid edge

appears

the

RB0/INT

pin,

the

INTF

bit

(INTCON<1>) is set. This interrupt can be disabled by

clearing control bit INTE (INTCON<4>). Flag bit INTF

must be cleared in software via the Interrupt Service

Routine before re-enabling this interrupt. The INT

interrupt can wake the processor from SLEEP

(Section 6.11) only if the INTE bit was set prior to going

into SLEEP. The status of the GIE bit decides whether

the processor branches to the interrupt vector

following wake-up.

6.8.2

TMR0 INTERRUPT

An overflow (FFh

→ 00h) in TMR0 will set flag bit T0IF

(INTCON<2>). The interrupt can be enabled/disabled

by setting/clearing enable bit T0IE (INTCON<5>)

(Section 5.0).

6.8.3

PORTB INTERRUPT

An input change on PORTB<7:4> sets flag bit RBIF

(INTCON<0>). The interrupt can be enabled/disabled

by setting/clearing enable bit RBIE (INTCON<3>)

(Section 4.2).

6.8.4

DATA EEPROM INTERRUPT

At the completion of a data EEPROM write cycle, flag

bit EEIF (EECON1<4>) will be set. The interrupt can be

enabled/disabled by setting/clearing enable bit EEIE

(INTCON<6>) (Section 3.0).

Note:

Note:

For a change on the I/O pin to be

recognized, the pulse width must be at

least TCY wide.
