9.3.1.4 DivIEnReg register
Control bits to enable and disable the passing of interrupt requests.
9.3.1.5 ComIrqReg register
Interrupt request bits.
Table 26. ComIEnReg register bit descriptions
Bit Symbol Value Description
7 IRqInv 1 signal on pin IRQ is inverted with respect to the Status1Reg register’s
IRq bit
0 signal on pin IRQ is equal to the IRq bit; in combination with the
DivIEnReg register’s IRqPushPull bit, the default value of logic 1 ensures
that the output level on pin IRQ is 3-state
6 TxIEn - allows the transmitter interrupt request (TxIRq bit) to be propagated to
pin IRQ
5 RxIEn - allows the receiver interrupt request (RxIRq bit) to be propagated to pin
IRQ
4 IdleIEn - allows the idle interrupt request (IdleIRq bit) to be propagated to pin IRQ
3 HiAlertIEn - allows the high alert interrupt request (HiAlertIRq bit) to be propagated to
pin IRQ
2 LoAlertIEn - allows the low alert interrupt request (LoAlertIRq bit) to be propagated to
pin IRQ
1 ErrIEn - allows the error interrupt request (ErrIRq bit) to be propagated to pin IRQ
0 TimerIEn - allows the timer interrupt request (TimerIRq bit) to be propagated to pin
IRQ
