4.7.3.11 ARM/DSP Communications Interrupts
The system module includes registers for generating interrupts between the ARM and DSP.
The DSPINT register shows the status of the ARM-to-DSP interrupts. The DSPINT register format is
shown in Figure 4-20. Table 4-39 describes the register bit fields. The ARM may generate an interrupt to
the DSP by setting one of the four INTDSP[3:0] bits or by setting the INTNMI bit in the DSPINTSET
pseudo-register (see Figure 4-21). The interrupt set bit then self-clears and the corresponding
INTDSP[3:0] or INTNMI bit in the DSPINT status register (see Figure 4-20) is automatically set to indicate
that the interrupt was generated. After servicing the interrupt, the DSP clears the status bit by writing ‘1’ to
the corresponding bit in the DSPINTCLR register (see Figure 4-22). The ARM may poll the status bit to
determine when the DSP has completed the interrupt service.
The DSP may generate an interrupt to the ARM in the same manner using the ARMINTSET and
ARMINTCLR registers shown/described in Figure 4-24, Table 4-43, and Figure 4-25, Table 4-44,
respectively. The DSP can then view the status of the DSP-to-ARM interrupts via the ARMINT register
shown/described in Figure 4-23 and Table 4-42.
