NIOS II hard fault due to pulse interrupt

Hi,

 

I have a NIOS II system and I was sending a pulse interrupt (of 16 clock cycles). The NIOS was going to an exception handler instead of the ISR. I changed the pulse to a level signal and added a clear signal controlled by a PIO bit and now the ISR is executed.

 

The question is, why the hard fault? I would expect that the NIOS would miss the pulse and do nothing.

 

Regards,

Carlos

Hi, The interrupt will push the NIOS II to go to the exception handler and usual. Please check the following document for more info. https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/programmable/us/en/pdfs/literature/hb/nios2/n2sw_nii52006.pdf Regards,
