2-8 System Resets, Interrupts, and Operating Modes
Oscillator Fault
The oscillator fault signal warns of a possible error condition with the crystal
oscillator. The oscillator fault can be enabled to generate an NMI interrupt by
setting the OFIE bit. The OFIFG flag can then be tested by NMI the interrupt
service routine to determine if the NMI was caused by an oscillator fault.
A PUC signal can trigger an oscillator fault, because the PUC switches the
LFXT1 to LF mode, therefore switching off the HF mode. The PUC signal also
switches off the XT2 oscillator.
Flash Access Violation
The flash ACCVIFG flag is set when a flash access violation occurs. The flash
access violation can be enabled to generate an NMI interrupt by setting the
ACCVIE bit. The ACCVIFG flag can then be tested by NMI the interrupt service
routine to determine if the NMI was caused by a flash access violation.
