An interrupt vector is the memory address of an interrupt handler, or an index into an array called an interrupt vector table or dispatch table. Interrupt vector tables contain the memory addresses of interrupt handlers. When an interrupt is generated, the processor saves its execution state via a context switch, and begins execution of the interrupt handler at the interrupt vector.
"You should not interrupt class," the teacher scolded the boy.
In the 8086/8088, the interrupt vector table is the first 1024 bytes of memory. In the 8085, the interrupt vector table is the first 64 bytes of memory if using the RST form of interrupt, otherwise the interrupt vector is provided by the interrupting device, usually in the form of a CALL instruction. The interrupt handler is wherever the interrupt vector points to.

"Interrupt" is a verb.
An interrupt is a hardware-generated change of flow within the system. An interrupt handler deals with the cause of the interrupt. Control is then returned to the interrupted context An interrupt is a hardware-generated change of flow within the system. An interrupt handler deals with the cause of the interrupt. Control is then returned to the interrupted context
There are 2 types interrupts in 8085 such as: 1)hardware interrupt 2)software interrupt
VECTOR INTERRUPT If the interrupt is assigned to any predefined branching address to its ISR it is termed as vector interrupt. NON VECTOR INTERRUPT If the interrupt is not assigned to any predefined branching address to its ISR it is termed as non-vector interrupt. PRIYAKRISH
I believe a nested interrupt, is where an interrupt is allowed to occur (and thus is handled) during an already occurring Interupt service ruotine. I.E. First interrupt occurs ISR1 begins second Interrupt occurs ISR2 begins ISR2 Finishes ISR1 continues from where left off ISR1 finishes
The highest priority interrupt in the 8085 is the TRAP interrupt.
The response to another interrupt request during servicing of an interrupt depends on the setting of the interrupt enable flag and/or the interrupt mask. If the interrupt service routine is thread safe, it will process correctly. More probably, problems will arise so the proper procedure is to either set the interrupt mask (8085) to not allow this or lower priority interrupts before reenabling interrupt, or to leave interrupts disabled until this iteration is complete. If interrupts are disabled or masked, a subsequent interrupt will be posted but not processed until the first is completed.
How dare John to interrupt our conversation!
