CHAPTER 3 INTERRUPTS

3.5.3

Multiple interrupts

As a special case, no hardware interrupt request can be accepted while data is being
written to the I/O area. This is intended to prevent the CPU from operating falsely
because of an interrupt request issued while an interrupt control register for a resource
is being updated.
If an interrupt occurs during interrupt processing, a higher-level interrupt is processed
first.

The F

MC-16LX CPU supports multiple interrupts. If an interrupt of a higher level occurs while another

interrupt is being processed, control is transferred to the high-level interrupt after the currently executing

instruction is completed. After processing of the high-level interrupt is completed, the original interrupt

processing is resumed. An interrupt of the same or lower level may be generated while another interrupt is

being processed. If this happens, the new interrupt request is suspended until the current interrupt

processing is completed, unless the ILM value or I flag is changed by an instruction. The extended

intelligent I/O service cannot be activated from multiple sources; while an extended intelligent I/O service

is being processed, all other interrupt requests or extended intelligent I/O service requests are suspended.
