Chapter 34: Appendix: Cortex-M3 user guide
When setting TBLOFF, you must align the offset to the number of exception entries in the
vector table. The recommended alignment is 256 words, allowing for 128 interrupts.
Remark: Table alignment requirements mean that bits[7:0] of the table offset are always
zero.
34.4.3.6 Application Interrupt and Reset Control Register
The AIRCR provides priority grouping control for the exception model, endian status for
data accesses, and reset control of the system. See the register summary in Table 654
and Table 659
for its attributes.
To write to this register, you must write
0x5FA
to the VECTKEY field, otherwise the
processor ignores the write.
The bit assignments are shown in Table 659
.
Table 658. VTOR bit assignments
Bits Name Function
[31:30] - Reserved.
[29:8] TBLOFF Vector table base offset field. It contains bits[29:8] of the offset of the table
base from the bottom of the memory map.
Remark: Bit[29] determines whether the vector table is in the code or
SRAM memory region:
Bit[29] is sometimes called the TBLBASE bit.
• 0 = code
• 1 = SRAM.
[7:0] - Reserved.

[31:16] Write:
VECTKEYSTAT
Read: VECTKEY
RW Register key:
Reads as
0x05FA
On writes, write
0x5FA
to VECTKEY, otherwise the write is
ignored.
[15] ENDIANESS RO Data endianness bit:
0 = Little-endian.
[14:11] - - Reserved
[10:8] PRIGROUP R/W Interrupt priority grouping field. This field determines the
split of group priority from subpriority, see
Section 34.4.3.6.1
.
[7:3] - - Reserved.
