Interrupts
The STM32W108's interrupt system is composed of two parts: a standard ARM® Cortex-
M3 Nested Vectored Interrupt Controller (NVIC) that provides top level interrupts, and an
Event Manager (EM) that provides second level interrupts. The NVIC and EM provide a
simple hierarchy. All second level interrupts from the EM feed into top level interrupts in the
NVIC. This two-level hierarchy allows for both fine granular control of interrupt sources and
coarse granular control over entire peripherals, while allowing peripherals to have their own
interrupt vector.
The
description of the NVIC and an overview of the exception table (ARM nomenclature refers to
interrupts as exceptions) and
description of the Event Manager including a table of all top-level peripheral interrupts and
their second-level interrupt sources.
In practice, top-level peripheral interrupts are only used to enable or disable interrupts for an
entire peripheral. Second-level interrupts originate from hardware sources, and therefore
are the main focus of applications using interrupts.
Nested vectored interrupt controller (NVIC)
The ARM® Cortex-M3 Nested Vectored Interrupt Controller (NVIC) facilitates low-latency
exception and interrupt handling. The NVIC and the processor core interface are closely
coupled, which enables low-latency interrupt processing and efficient processing of late
arriving interrupts. The NVIC also maintains knowledge of the stacked (nested) interrupts to
enable tail-chaining of interrupts.
The ARM® Cortex-M3 NVIC contains 10 standard interrupts that are related to chip and
CPU operation and management. In addition to the 10 standard interrupts, it contains 17
individually vectored peripheral interrupts specific to the STM32W108.
The NVIC defines a list of exceptions. These exceptions include not only traditional
peripheral interrupts, but also more specialized events such as faults and CPU reset. In the
ARM® Cortex-M3 NVIC, a CPU reset event is considered an exception of the highest
priority, and the stack pointer is loaded from the first position in the NVIC exception table.
The NVIC exception table defines all exceptions and their position, including peripheral
interrupts. The position of each exception is important since it directly translates to the
location of a 32-bit interrupt vector for each interrupt, and defines the hardware priority of
exceptions. Each exception in the table is a 32-bit address that is loaded into the program
counter when that exception occurs.
(stack pointer) through 15 (SysTick) are part of the standard ARM® Cortex-M3 NVIC, while
exceptions 16 (Timer 1) through 32 (Debug) are the peripheral interrupts specific to the
STM32W108 peripherals. The peripheral interrupts are listed in greater detail in
Table 32.
