Preliminary data sheet
7.15.1 External interrupt inputs
not by another interrupt of the same or lower priority. The highest priority interrupt service
cannot be interrupted by any other interrupt source. If two requests of different priority
levels are pending at the start of an instruction, the request of higher priority level is
serviced.
If requests of the same priority level are pending at the start of an instruction, an internal
polling sequence determines which request is serviced. This is called the arbitration
ranking. Note that the arbitration ranking is only used to resolve pending requests of the
same priority level.
The P89LPC970/971/972 has two external interrupt inputs as well as the Keypad Interrupt
function. The two interrupt inputs are identical to those present on the standard 80C51
microcontrollers.
These external interrupts can be programmed to be level-triggered or edge-triggered by
setting or clearing bit IT1 or IT0 in Register TCON.
In edge-triggered mode, if successive samples of the INTn pin show a HIGH in one cycle
and a LOW in the next cycle, the interrupt request flag IEn in TCON is set, causing an
interrupt request.
If an external interrupt is enabled when the P89LPC970/971/972 is put into Power-down
or Idle mode, the interrupt will cause the processor to wake-up and resume operation.
