6.6 Interrupt priority level detection time
6.6 Interrupt priority level detection time
When the interrupt priority level detection time has passed after sampling starts, an interrupt request is
accepted. The interrupt priority level detection time can be selected by software. (See Figure 6.6.1.) Usually,
select “2 cycles of fsys” as the interrupt priority level detection time.
Figure 6.6.2 shows the interrupt priority level detection time.
