17.1 Overview

The pins denoted in the table below can be configured to operate as Interrupt-on-Change (IOC) pins for this device. An interrupt can be generated by detecting a signal that has either a rising edge or a falling edge. Any individual PORT pin, or combination of PORT pins, can be configured to generate an interrupt.

Note:
  1. Pin RE3 only
Important: If MCLRE = 1 or LVP = 1, the MCLR pin port functionality is disabled and IOC on that pin is not available
The Interrupt-on-Change module has the following features:
  • Interrupt-on-Change enable (Master Switch)
  • Individual pin configuration
  • Rising and falling edge detection
  • Individual pin interrupt flags

The following figure is a block diagram of the IOC module.
