The interrupt flags are sampled in S5P2 of every machine cycle. In the next machine cycle, the
sampled interrupts are polled and their priority is resolved. If certain conditions are met then the
hardware will execute an internally generated LCALL instruction which will vector the process to
the appropriate interrupt vector address. The conditions for generating the LCALL are
1. An interrupt of equal or higher priority is not currently being serviced.
2. The current polling cycle is the last machine cycle of the instruction currently being executed.
3. The current instruction does not involve a write to IP or IE registers and is not a RETI.
If any of these conditions are not met, then the LCALL will not be generated. The polling cycle is
repeated every machine cycle, with the interrupts sampled at S5P2 in the previous machine cycle.
If an interrupt flag is active in one cycle but not responded to, and is not active when the above
conditions are met, the denied interrupt will not be serviced. This means that active interrupts are
not remembered, every polling cycle is new.
The processor responds to a valid interrupts by executing an LCALL instruction to the appropriate
service routine. This may or may not clear the flag which caused the interrupt. In case of Timer
interrupts, the TF0 or TF1 flags, are cleared by hardware whenever the processor vectors to the
appropriate timer service routine. In case of External interrupt, I
NT0 and INT1, the flags are
cleared only if they are edge triggered. In case of Local Serial interrupts, the flags are not cleared
by hardware. The hardware LCALL behaves exactly like the software LCALL instruction. This
instruction saves the Program Counter contents onto the Stack, but does not save the Program Sta-
tus Word PSW. The PC is reloaded with the vector address of that interrupt which caused the
LCALL. These vector address for the different sources are as follows
