The periodic interrupt registers are described in the following sections.
4.3.3.1 Periodic Interrupt Status and Control Register (PISCR)
The periodic interrupt status and control register (PISCR), shown in Figure 4-38, contains
the interrupt request level and the interrupt status bit. It also contains the controls for the 16
bits to be loaded in a modulus counter.
