A Comparator Select Register (CMPSL) is used to enable
the comparators, read the outputs of the comparators inter-
nally, and enable the outputs of the comparators to the pins.
Two control bits (enable and output enable) and one result
bit are associated with each comparator. The comparator re-
sult bits (CMP1RD and CMP2RD) are read only bits which
will read as zero if the associated comparator is not enabled.
The Comparator Select Register is cleared with reset, result-
ing in the comparators being disabled. The comparators
should also be disabled before entering either the HALT or
IDLE modes in order to save power. The configuration of the
CMPSL register is as follows:
9.0 Comparators
The device contains two differential comparators, each with
a pair of inputs (positive and negative) and an output. Ports
F1–F3 and F4–F6 are used for the comparators. The follow-
ing is the Port F assignment:
F6 Comparator2 output
F5 Comparator2 positive input
F4 Comparator2 negative input
F3 Comparator1 output
F2 Comparator1 positive input
F1 Comparator1 negative input

10.1 INTRODUCTION
CMP20E Selects pin I6 as comparator 2 output provided
that CMP2EN is set to enable the comparator
Each device supports thirteen vectored interrupts. Interrupt
sources include Timer 0, Timer 1, Timer 2, Timer 3, Port L
Wakeup, Software Trap, MICROWIRE/PLUS, and External
Input.
CMP2RD Comparator 2 result (this is a read only bit, which
will read as 0 if the comparator is not enabled)
CMP2EN Enable comparator 2
All interrupts force a branch to location 00FF Hex in program
memory. The VIS instruction may be used to vector to the
appropriate service routine from location 00FF Hex.
CMP10E Selects pin I3 as comparator 1 output provided
that CMPIEN is set to enable the comparator
CMP1RD Comparator 1 result (this is a read only bit, which
will read as 0 if the comparator is not enabled)
The Software trap has the highest priority while the default
VIS has the lowest priority.
CMP1EN Enable comparator 1
Each of the 13 maskable inputs has a fixed arbitration rank-
ing and vector.
Note that the two unused bits of CMPSL may be used as
software flags.
Note: For compatibility with existing code and with existing Mask ROMMed
devices the bits of the CMPSL register will take precedence over the
associated Port F configuration and data output bits.
