27.6.8 Sleep Mode Operation

In Sleep modes, an EXTINTx pin can wake up the device if the corresponding condition matches the configuration in the CONFIG register, and the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Enable Set register (INTENSET) is written to ‘1’.

Note: As soon as the EIC module is enabled and SENSEx is configured with different settings than no detection, the INTFLAGx bit records the activity on the EXTINTx pin, whether or not the Interrupt Enable bit is set.
