As indicated in Figure 4-8, the ERRORSTS pin is an integral part of the MCU safety concept; used for indicating to an external system a critical error is occurring within in the MCU. Proper functioning of the ERRORSTS pin, and error handling of the system external to the MCU, can be checked by asserting the ERRORSTS pin. This ERRORSTS pin is asserted by generating an error condition using one of the provided software options (for example, asserting CLOCLKFAIL NMIFLG by updating the NMIFLGFRC.bit.CLOCKFAIL). Error response, diagnostic testability, and any necessary system requirements are defined by the system integrator.
