4.3.4. Integration Test Output Register 1, VICITOP1

VICITOP1 is a 4-bit register that is used to control and read the values of the following outputs:

This register must only be used in test mode. The read value in VICITOP1 always takes two clock cycles to update, because of the use of dual flip-flop synchronization logic that avoids metastability problems. For example, when a new value is written into this register, an immediate read from the register returns the old value. After two cycles, a read from this register returns the updated value. The register can be accessed with zero wait states.

Table 4.5 shows the bit assignment of the VICITOP1 Register.

VICIRQACKOUT

Read/ write

Read the value of the VICIRQACKOUT output when the VICITCR ITEN bit is LOW.

Read the value of this field when the VICITCR ITEN bit is HIGH.

Write sets output to written value when the VICITCR ITEN bit is HIGH.

[8]

VICVECTADDRV

Read/ write

Read the value of the VICVECTADDRV output when the VICITCR ITEN bit is LOW.

Read the value of this field when the VICITCR ITEN bit is HIGH.

Write sets output to written value when the VICITCR ITEN bit is HIGH.

[7]

VICIRQ

Read/ write

Read the value of the internal VICIRQ signal when the VICITCR ITEN bit is LOW. This is the pre-inverted version of the final output, and is inverted to create the final nVICIRQ output.

Read the value of this field when the VICITCR ITEN bit is HIGH.

Write sets output to written value when the VICITCR ITEN bit is HIGH.

[6]

VICFIQ

Read/ write

Read the value of the internal VICFIQ signal when the VICITCR ITEN bit is LOW. This is the pre-inverted version of the final output, and is inverted to create the final nVICFIQ output.

Read the value of this field when the VICITCR ITEN bit is HIGH.

Write sets output to written value when the VICITCR ITEN bit is HIGH.
