HW Interrupts

The 8085 microprocessor has 5 hardware interrupts: TRAP, RST 7.5, RST 6.5, RST 5.5, and INTR. TRAP has the highest priority and is non-maskable. RST 7.5 is maskable and has the second highest priority. RST 6.5 and RST 5.5 are both maskable and level triggered, with RST 6.5 having the third priority and RST 5.5 having the fourth priority. INTR is the lowest priority interrupt, is maskable, and is level sensitive. Upon receiving an INTR signal, the 8085 will acknowledge the interrupt if enabled, save the next instruction address to the stack,

maintain high state until it recognized.
 The following sequence of events occurs
when INTR signal goes high:-

1. The 8085 checks the status of INTR signal


during execution of each instruction.

2. If INTR signal is high, then 8085 complete


its current instruction and sends active low
interrupt acknowledge signal, if the interrupt
is enabled.

3. In response to the acknowledge signal,


external logic places an instruction OPCODE
on the data bus. In the case of multibyte
instruction, additional interrupt acknowledge
machine cycles are generated by the 8085 to
transfer the additional bytes into the
microprocessor.

4. On receiving the instruction, the 8085 save


the address of next instruction on stack and
execute received instruction.
