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.
How 8086 responds to an interrupt?
When the 8086 microprocessor receives an interrupt signal, it completes the execution of the current instruction and saves the address of the next instruction onto the stack. It then determines the appropriate interrupt vector from the Interrupt Vector Table (IVT) based on the interrupt type. The processor then transfers control to the interrupt service routine (ISR) associated with that interrupt. After the ISR has executed, the 8086 retrieves the saved address from the stack and resumes execution from where it was interrupted.

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 use of Interrupt vector table of 8086 microprocessor?
The interrupt vector table in the 8085 is a region of low memory that contains the target addresses for the RST instructions. RST can be invoked by the program, by an INTR request which provides an RST x instruction in response to INTA, or by one of the four direct interrupt pins, TRAP, RST5.5, RST6.5, and RST7.5 Each of these interrupt sequences place the PC on the stack, and then execution goes to one of the vectors. The vectors are as follows... RST 0: 0000H RST 1: 0008H RST 2: 0010H RST 3: 0018H RST 4: 0020H TRAP: 0024H RST 5: 0028H RST5.5: 002CH RST 6: 0030H RST6.5: 0034H RST7: 0038H RST7.5: 003CH
WHAT are vectored interrupts and their call locations?
Vectored interrupts are a mechanism used in computer systems where each interrupt is assigned a unique vector, or address, that points to a specific interrupt service routine (ISR). When an interrupt occurs, the processor uses the vector to quickly locate the corresponding ISR in memory, allowing for efficient handling of the interrupt. This method speeds up the interrupt handling process by eliminating the need for the processor to search through a table of ISRs. Call locations for these vectors are typically defined in a specific area of memory, often known as the interrupt vector table.
What is the function of the interrupt vector in computer systems?
The interrupt vector in computer systems is a table of memory addresses that point to specific routines or functions that handle different types of interrupts. When an interrupt occurs, the processor looks up the corresponding memory address in the interrupt vector to determine which routine to execute. This allows the computer to respond to external events or signals in a timely and organized manner.
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.
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
