36.4 ZCD Interrupts

An interrupt will be generated upon a change in the ZCD logic output when the appropriate interrupt enables are set. The ZCD module has a rising edge detector and a falling edge detector.

The ZCDIF bit of the PIRx register will be set when either edge detector is triggered and its associated enable bit is set. The INTP enables rising edge interrupts and the INTN bit enables falling edge interrupts.

To fully enable the interrupt, the following bits must be set:

• ZCDIE bit of the PIEx register
• INTP bit for rising edge detection
• INTN bit for falling edge detection
• GIEL and GIE bits of the INTCON0 register

Changing the POL bit will cause an interrupt, regardless of the level of the SEN bit.

The ZCDIF bit of the PIRx register must be cleared in software as part of the interrupt service. If another edge is detected while this flag is being cleared, the flag will still be set at the end of the sequence.
