Why clearing RTIF bit will cause PORF, LVRF bit cleared also for S12 MCU?

Hello, I found a strange problem on S12G also on S12XE MCU. In our bootloader code, it will clear the RTIF bit (CPMUFLG_RTIF on S12G, CRGFLG_RTIF on S12XE), but I found other bits in the register also were cleared. PORF is used for power on reset judgement in my code, it can't be scratched.

My code is below:

S12G128 MCU:

CPMUFLG_RTIF = 1 // after this code, PORF is cleared.

S12XE256 MCU

CRGFLG_RTIF = 1 // after this code, PORF is cleared.

But if the code is as below, the PORF bit was not affected.

CPMUFLG = ~(U8)CPMUFLG_PORF_MASK; /* Clear CMPMU int flags - not needed but good practice */

It is normal behavior. It was explained N*N times on this forum. Pls search for clear flags, clearing flags etc. To clear just RTIF you need to either

CPMUFLG = CPMUFLG_RTIF_MASK;

CPMUFLG &= CPMUFLG_RTIF_MASK; // pls notice no ~ on the right, like one would use to zero memory bit (x &= ~1;)

Thank you, it works. But what's the difference? "CPMUFLG_RTIF = 1" or "CPMUFLG |= CPMUFLG_RTIF_MASK" is translated to "bset CPMUFLG, RTIF_MASK", why the bset instruction will aftect other bits?

Looks like you ignored my advice to search forums.

In short. Say you have flags registers, two flags are set, register reads as 3. You bset it with #1 mask. 3 | 1 = 3 and both flags are cleared. Simple. It doesn't matter all following variants are wrong

BSET reg, #1 ; clear all flags in reg

LDAA reg

ORAA #1

STAA reg ; clear all flags, which were read as set when LDAA instruction was executed

reg_BIT0 = 0; // clear all flags except BIT0

reg_BIT0 = 1; // clear all flags

Only these and equivalent are working with flags:

reg = 1;

reg &= 1;

BCLR reg, #~1 ; or BCLR reg, #0xFE

LDAA reg

ANDA #1

STAA reg

LDAA #1

STAA reg

Got it, thank you!
