When a processor is interrupted to do a particular task,Program counter should be loaded with the the address of subroutine(task).If the processor automatically generates the address then it is known as vectored interrupt.for example if 8085 microprocessor is interrupted through RST 5.5 pin,then processor multiplies 5.5 by 8 and converts it to Hex address.If user has to provide address of subroutine using CALL instruction then it is known as non vectored interrupt

What is the difference between polling and vector interrupt service routine?
polling interrupt is alternative to the vector interrupt , it requires that the interrupt handler poll or send a signal to each device in turn in order to find out which one is sent the interrupt request.....
Describe RST 5.5 interrupts in 8085 microprocessor with examples?
RST 5.5 is level triggered interrupt & maskable also. it can be masked by using SIM intrruction. Vector address of the RST 5.5 interrupt is 002Ch
What is the interrupt number in 8085 microprocessor and how to find interrupt's vector address?
The 8085 has five interrupts, INTR, RST5.5, RST6.5, RST7.5, and TRAP. It also has eight software interrupts, RST0, RST1, ..., RST7. The INTR interrupt requires a hardware response that is an opcode. Usually, the opcode is either a CALL instruction, in which case the interrupt vector can go anywhere in memory, or it is an RST instruction, in which case the vector is based on a table in low memory. In the case of RST instructions, either directly or via INTR, or the RSTx.5 interrupts, you simply multiply the interrupt number by 8 to get the vector address. The following table presents the vector addresses for all possible interrupts... RST 0 - 00H RST 1 - 08H RST 2 - 10H RST 3 - 18H RST 4 - 20H TRAP - 24H RST 5 - 28H RST5.5 - 2CH RST 6 - 30H RST 6.5 - 34H RST 7 - 38H RST 7.5 - 3CH
Where is interrupt vector table of 8086 Is it in the RAM or ROM?
Actually By Default this is present in BIOS(ROM) and at the boot time Operating System loads it to the RAM.
Describe the sequence of events that takes place when an interrupt is raised?
Interrupt Handling 1. Hardware stacks program counter, etc. 2. Hardware loads new program counter from interrupt vector. 3. Assembly language procedure saves registers. 4. Assembly language procedure sets up new stack. 5. C interrupt service runs (typically reads and buffers input). 6. Scheduler decides which process is to run next. 7. C procedure returns to the assembly code. 8. Assembly language procedure starts up new current process.
What is vector and non vector interrupts?
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
What is the use of interrupt vector?
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.
Where is interrupt handler and interrupt vector?
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.
Is interrupt vector is inside the kernel?
Yes, the interrupt vector is inside the kernel.
What is Non-interrupt vector?
If the interrupt is not assigned any predefined branching address to its ISR it is termed as non interrupt vector
What is the size of the interrupt vector table in the 8086-8088 microprocessor?
There are 256 different interrupt vectors in the 8086/8088. Each vector is a far CS:IP address, which is four bytes. That makes the interrupt vector table 1,024 bytes.
What do you mean by IVT in 8086?
Interrupt vector table
Where is the Full list of Interrupt Vector Table?
The interrupt vector table in the 8086/8088 is the first 1024 bytes in memory. There are 256 vectors, each containing 4 bytes, CS:IP, for each possible interrupt source.
What is the difference between polling and vector interrupt service routine?
polling interrupt is alternative to the vector interrupt , it requires that the interrupt handler poll or send a signal to each device in turn in order to find out which one is sent the interrupt request.....
What is INTA in 8086 in miscropress?
Interrupt Acknowledgegenerated by the microprocessor in response to INTR. Causes the interrupt vector to be put onto the data bus
Where will be the actual address of the subroutine is placed for vectored interrupts?
interrupt vector table
What is interrpt request lines?
these are the block of code which tell the OS that a specific interrupt has arrived or to send interrupt request to some particular task. Interrupt is to stop the normal execution of the program and process the interrupt first according to it's priority in the interrupt vector table.
