26.5 RTC interrupts
All RTC interrupts are connected to the EXTI controller.
To enable the RTC Alarm interrupt, the following sequence is required:
1. Configure and enable the EXTI Line 17 in interrupt mode and select the rising edge
sensitivity.
2. Configure and enable the RTC_Alarm IRQ channel in the NVIC.
3. Configure the RTC to generate RTC alarms (Alarm A or Alarm B).
To enable the RTC Wakeup interrupt, the following sequence is required:
1. Configure and enable the EXTI Line 22 in interrupt mode and select the rising edge
sensitivity.
2. Configure and enable the RTC_WKUP IRQ channel in the NVIC.
3. Configure the RTC to generate the RTC wakeup timer event.
To enable the RTC Tamper interrupt, the following sequence is required:
1. Configure and enable the EXTI Line 21 in interrupt mode and select the rising edge
sensitivity.
2. Configure and Enable the TAMP_STAMP IRQ channel in the NVIC.
3. Configure the RTC to detect the RTC tamper event.
To enable the RTC TimeStamp interrupt, the following sequence is required:
1. Configure and enable the EXTI Line 21 in interrupt mode and select the rising edge
sensitivity.
2. Configure and Enable the TAMP_STAMP IRQ channel in the NVIC.
3. Configure the RTC to detect the RTC timestamp event.
