System Integration Module (SIM)
13.1 Introduction
This section describes the system integration module (SIM), which supports up to 24 external and/or
internal interrupts. The SIM is a system state controller that coordinates the central processor unit (CPU)
and exception timing. Together with the CPU, the SIM controls all microcontroller unit (MCU) activities.
Figure 13-1 is a summary of the SIM input/output (I/O) registers. A block diagram of the SIM is shown in
Figure 13-2.
The SIM is responsible for:
• Bus clock generation and control for CPU and peripherals:
– Stop/wait/reset entry and recovery
– Internal clock control
• Master reset control, including power-on reset (POR) and computer operating properly (COP)
timeout
• Interrupt control:
– Acknowledge timing
– Arbitration control timing
– Vector address generation
• CPU enable/disable timing
• Modular architecture expandable to 128 interrupt sources
