4.2.3 Interrupt Priority Level Select Bit and Processor Interrupt Priority Level (IPL)
Set the interrupt priority level using the interrupt priority level select bit, which is one of the component bits
of the interrupt control register. When an interrupt request occurs, the interrupt priority level is compared
with the IPL. The interrupt is enabled only when the priority level of the interrupt is higher than the IPL.
Therefore, setting the interrupt priority level to “0” disables the interrupt.
Table 4.2.1 shows the settings of interrupt priority levels and Table 4.2.2 shows the interrupt levels en-
abled, according to the consist of the IPL.
The following are conditions under which an interrupt is accepted:
· interrupt enable flag (I flag) = 1
· interrupt request bit = 1
· interrupt priority level > IPL
The interrupt enable flag (I flag), the interrupt request bit, the interrupt priority select bit, and the IPL are
independent, and they are not affected by one another.

to the contents of the IPL

Table 4.2.1. Settings of interrupt priority levels
When either the IPL or the interrupt priority level is changed, the new level is reflected to the interrupt in
the following timing:
When changing the IPL using the REIT instruction, the reflection takes effect as of the instruction
that is executed in 2 clock cycles after the last clock cycle in volved in the REIT instruction.
When changing the IPL using either the POPC, LDC or LDIPL instruction, the reflection takes
effect as of the instruction that is executed in 3 cycles after the last clock cycle involved in the
instruction used.
When changing the interrupt priority level using the MOV or similar instruction, the reflection takes
effect as of the instruction that is executed in 2 clock cycles after the last clock cycle involved in
the instruction used.
