INTCON Register
The INTCON register is a readable and writable regis-
ter, which contains various enable and flag bits for the
TMR0 register overflow, RB port change and external
RB0/INT pin interrupts.
Note:
Interrupt flag bits are set when an interrupt
condition occurs, regardless of the state of
its corresponding enable bit or the global
enable bit, GIE (INTCON<7>). User soft-
ware should ensure the appropriate inter-
rupt flag bits are clear prior to enabling an
interrupt.

Legend:
R = Readable bit
W = Writable bit
U = Unimplemented bit, read as ‘0’
-n = Value at POR
‘1’ = Bit is set
‘0’ = Bit is cleared
x = Bit is unknown
bit 7
GIE: Global Interrupt Enable bit
1
= Enables all unmasked interrupts
0
= Disables all interrupts
bit 6
PEIE: Peripheral Interrupt Enable bit
1
= Enables all unmasked peripheral interrupts
0
= Disables all peripheral interrupts
bit 5
TMR0IE: TMR0 Overflow Interrupt Enable bit
1
= Enables the TMR0 interrupt
0
= Disables the TMR0 interrupt
bit 4
INTE: RB0/INT External Interrupt Enable bit
1
= Enables the RB0/INT external interrupt
0
= Disables the RB0/INT external interrupt
bit 3
RBIE: RB Port Change Interrupt Enable bit
1
= Enables the RB port change interrupt
0
= Disables the RB port change interrupt
bit 2
TMR0IF: TMR0 Overflow Interrupt Flag bit
1
= TMR0 register has overflowed (must be cleared in software)
0
= TMR0 register did not overflow
bit 1
INTF: RB0/INT External Interrupt Flag bit
1
= The RB0/INT external interrupt occurred (must be cleared in software)
0
= The RB0/INT external interrupt did not occur
bit 0
RBIF: RB Port Change Interrupt Flag bit
A mismatch condition will continue to set flag bit RBIF. Reading PORTB will end the mismatch
condition and allow flag bit RBIF to be cleared.
1
= At least one of the RB7:RB4 pins changed state (must be cleared in software)
0
= None of the RB7:RB4 pins have changed state
