54.3.2 Interrupt Sources

The AES interface has one interrupt line used for standard functions and one interrupt line used to trigger any safety or security event that may occur. Both lines are connected to the Interrupt Controller. The interrupt line for standard functions is driven by the Interrupt Mask register (AES_IMR) and the Interrupt Status register (AES_ISR), whereas the interrupt line for safety/security functions is driven by Write Protection Status register (AES_WPSR) flags. If one of the flags AES_WPSR.WPVS, AES_WPSR.CGD, AES_WPSR.SEQE or AES_WPSR.SWE is set, the interrupt line is asserted. In order to handle interrupts, the Interrupt Controller must be programmed before configuring the AES.
