Figure 10-1. Event System Overview and Connected Peripherals
The event routing network consists of eight software-configurable multiplexers that control how events are routed and
used. These are called event channels, and allow up to eight parallel event configurations and routing. The maximum rout-
ing latency of an external event is two peripheral clock cycles due to re-synchronization, but several peripherals can directly
use the asynchronous event without any clock delay. The event system works in all power sleep modes, but only asynchro-
nous events can be routed in sleep modes where the system clock is not available.
