12.11.1 INT INTERRUPT
12.12 Context Saving During Interrupts
External interrupt on the RB0/INT pin is edge triggered,
either rising, if bit INTEDG (OPTION_REG<6>) is set,
or falling, if the INTEDG bit is clear. When a valid edge
appears on the RB0/INT pin, flag bit INTF
(INTCON<1>) is set. This interrupt can be disabled by
clearing enable bit INTE (INTCON<4>). Flag bit INTF
must be cleared in software in the Interrupt Service
Routine before re-enabling this interrupt. The INT inter-
rupt can wake-up the processor from SLEEP, if bit INTE
was set prior to going into SLEEP. The status of global
interrupt enable bit GIE decides whether or not the pro-
cessor branches to the interrupt vector following wake-
up. See Section 12.14 for details on SLEEP mode.
During an interrupt, only the return PC value is saved
on the stack. Typically, users may wish to save key reg-
isters during an interrupt (i.e., W, PCLATH and STA-
TUS registers). This will have to be implemented in
software, as shown in Example 12-1.
For the PIC16F73/74 devices, the register W_TEMP
must be defined in both banks 0 and 1 and must be
defined at the same offset from the bank base address
(i.e., If W_TEMP is defined at 20h in bank 0, it must
also be defined at A0h in bank 1.). The registers,
PCLATH_TEMP and STATUS_TEMP, are only defined
in bank 0.
Since the upper 16 bytes of each bank are common in
the PIC16F76/77 devices, temporary holding registers
W_TEMP, STATUS_TEMP and PCLATH_TEMP
should be placed in here. These 16 locations don’t
require banking and, therefore, make it easier for con-
text save and restore. The same code shown in
Example 12-1 can be used.
12.11.2 TMR0 INTERRUPT
An overflow (FFh → 00h) in the TMR0 register will set
flag bit TMR0IF (INTCON<2>). The interrupt can be
enabled/disabled by setting/clearing enable bit
TMR0IE (INTCON<5>). (Section 5.0)
12.11.3 PORTB INTCON CHANGE
An input change on PORTB<7:4> sets flag bit RBIF
(INTCON<0>). The interrupt can be enabled/disabled
by setting/clearing enable bit RBIE (INTCON<4>), see
Section 4.2.
