PIC32MX1XX/2XX
7.0 INTERRUPT CONTROLLER
PIC32MX1XX/2XX devices generate interrupt requests
in response to interrupt events from peripheral modules.
The interrupt control module exists externally to the CPU
logic and prioritizes the interrupt events before
presenting them to the CPU.
The PIC32MX1XX/2XX interrupt module includes the
following features:
Up to 64 interrupt sources
Up to 44 interrupt vectors
Single and multi-vector mode operations
Five external interrupts with edge polarity control
Interrupt proximity timer
Seven user-selectable priority levels for each
vector
Four user-selectable subpriority levels within each
priority
Software can generate any interrupt
User-configurable interrupt vector table location
User-configurable interrupt vector spacing

Note 1: This data sheet summarizes the features
of the PIC32MX1XX/2XX family of
devices. It is not intended to be a
comprehensive reference source. To
complement the information in this data
sheet, refer to Section 8. “Interrupt
Controller” (DS61108) in the “PIC32
Family Reference Manual”, which is
available from the Microchip web site
(www.microchip.com/PIC32).
2: Some registers and associated bits
described in this section may not be
available on all devices. Refer to
Section 4.0 “Memory Organization” in
this data sheet for device-specific register
and bit information.
Note: On PIC32MX1XX/2XX devices, the
dedicated shadow set is not present.
