Bit 1 – INT1 External Interrupt Request 1 Enable

When the INT1 bit is set (‘1’) and the I bit in the status register (SREG) is set (‘1’), the external pin interrupt is enabled. The interrupt sense control 1 bits (ISC11 and ISC10) in the external interrupt control register A (EICRA) define whether the external interrupt is activated on rising and/or falling edge of the INT1 pin or the level is sensed. Activity on the pin causes an interrupt request even if INT1 is configured as an output. The corresponding interrupt of External Interrupt Request 1 is executed from the INT1 Interrupt Vector.

Bit 0 – INT0 External Interrupt Request 0 Enable

When the INT0 bit is set (‘1’) and the I bit in the status register (SREG) is set (‘1’), the external pin interrupt is enabled. The interrupt sense control 0 bits (ISC01 and ISC00) in the external interrupt control register A (EICRA) define whether the external interrupt is activated on the rising and/or falling edge of the INT0 pin or the level is sensed. Activity on the pin causes an interrupt request even if INT0 is configured as an output. The corresponding interrupt of external interrupt request 0 is executed from the INT0 interrupt vector.
