Embed handles interrupts for the main control rate timer, GPIO pins, DMA, CAN, PWM, QEP, CAP, UART, SCI (serial), I2C, SPI, ADC, watchdog, and power reset.
You can exchange data with Embed from the interrupt handler via the Extern Read and Extern Write blocks.
Note: The assembler code for the LF2407 vector tables is supplied in the INSTALL\CG\LIB directory so that you can add your own interrupt handlers.
