Description
The processor has locations for 32 interrupt vectors; each location is repre-
sented by a value K from 0 to 31. The INTR instruction is a software interrupt
that transfers program control to the program-memory address specified by
K. The vector at that address then leads to the corresponding interrupt service
routine. Thus, the instruction allows any one of the interrupt service routines
to be executed from your software. For a list of interrupts and their correspond-
ing K values, see subsection 5.6.2,
Interrupt Table, on page 5-16. During ex-
ecution of the instruction, the value PC + 1 (the return address) is pushed onto
the stack. Neither the INTM bit nor the interrupt masks affect the INTR instruc-
tion. An INTR for the external interrupts looks exactly like an external interrupt
(an interrupt acknowledge is generated, and maskable interrupts are globally
disabled by setting INTM = 1).

†
† The processor performs speculative fetching by reading two additional instruction words. If the
PC discontinuity is taken, these two instruction words are discarded.
