Idle Mode Race

2005-03-31 by michael_rubinstein_sar

I plan to enter idle mode (PCON.IDL) for brief periods during I2C 
operations.  Idle mode will be exited when an interrupt occurs.

It seems that there's a race between the interrupt and setting the IDL 
bit.  If the interrupt occurs just before I set IDL, the processor will 
remain in idle mode forever.

Please let me know if there is a way to avoid this.

Thanks,
Michael
