The sequence of interrupt operations is explained below. Figure 6.3 is a flowchart of the
operations.
1. The interrupt request sources send interrupt request signals to the interrupt controller.
2. The interrupt controller selects the highest priority interrupt from the interrupt requests sent,

6. The SR and PC are saved to SSR and SPC, respectively.
7. The BL, MD, and RB in SR are set to 1.
8. The CPU jumps to the start address of the interrupt handler (the sum of the value set in the

priority interrupts are held pending. If two of these interrupts have the same priority level or if
multiple interrupts occur within a single module, the interrupt with the highest default priority

handler may branch with the INTEVT register value as its offset in order to identify the
interrupt source. This enables it to branch to the processing routine for the individual interrupt
source.
