12.7 Port Event
Port pins can generate an event when there is a change on the pin. The sense configurations decide the conditions for
each pin to generate events. Event generation requires the presence of a peripheral clock, and asynchronous event
generation is not possible. For edge sensing, the changed pin value must be sampled once by the peripheral clock for an
event to be generated.
For level sensing, a low-level pin value will not generate events, and a high-level pin value will continuously generate
events. For events to be generated on a low level, the pin configuration must be set to inverted I/O.
