Interrupts
18-12 ADSP-214xx SHARC Processor Hardware Reference
Emulation Considerations
An emulation halt can optionally mask all RTC interrupts by setting the
EMU_INTDIS bit in RTC_CTL register.
Effect Latency
The total effect latency is a combination of the write effect latency (core
access) plus the peripheral effect latency (peripheral specific).
Write Effect Latency
For details on write effect latency, see the SHARC Processor Programming
Reference.
Real-Time Clock Effect Latency
After the RTC registers are configured the effect latency is 2 PCLK cycles.
Programming Model
Writes of the alarm, clock, stopwatch and initialization registers is per-
formed in a two step sequence:
1. The desired values are programmed into a shadow register in the
processor’s core power domain and operating on the its peripheral
clock (PCLK).
2. The contents of the shadow register are synchronized onto the con-
tents of the RTC’s internal clock register which operates on the 1
Hz clock in the RTC power domain.
