15.0 Interrupts
STPND flag will have the wrong state. This will allow
maskable interrupts to be acknowledged during the servicing
of the first Software Trap. To avoid problems such as this, the
user program should contain the Software Trap routine to
perform a recovery procedure rather than a return to normal
execution.
Under normal conditions, the STPND flag is reset by a
RPND instruction in the Software Trap service routine. If a

programming error or hardware condition (brownout, power
supply glitch, etc.) sets the STPND flag without providing a
way for it to be cleared, all other interrupts will be locked out.
To alleviate this condition, the user can use extra RPND
instructions in the main program and in the Watchdog ser-
vice routine (if present). There is no harm in executing extra
RPND instructions in these parts of the program.
