 Interrupts are the signals generated by the external devices to request the
microprocessor to perform a task.
 Interrupts are classified into following groups:
(a) Software interrupt
(b) Hardware interrupt
(c) Vectored interrupt
(d) Non – vectored interrupt
(e) Maskable interrupt
(f) Non – maskable interrupt

(a) Software Interrupt


This interrupt is caused by the programmer. In this type of interrupt, the programmer
adds the instructions into the program to execute the interrupt.
There are 8 software interrupts in 8085.
Ex – RST0, RST1, RST2, RST3, RST4, RST5, RST6, and RST7.
(b) Hardware interrupt
This interrupt is caused by the external devices or peripherals.
There are 5 interrupt pins in 8085 used as hardware interrupts.
Ex – TRAP, RST7.5, RST6.5, RST5.5, INTR.

(c) Vectored interrupt


In this type of interrupt, the interrupt address is known to the processor.
Ex – RST7.5, RST6.5, RST5.5, TRAP.
(d) Non-Vectored interrupt
In this type of interrupt, the interrupt address is not known to the processor.
Ex – INTR.

(e) Maskable interrupt


In this type of interrupt, we can disable the interrupt by writing some instructions
into the program.
Ex - RST7.5, RST6.5, RST5.5.
(f) Non-Maskable interrupt
In this type of interrupt, we cannot disable the interrupt by writing some
instructions into the program.
Ex - TRAP.
 Among the 5 hardware interrupts – TRAP has the highest priority.
 Priority order is
TRAP > RST 7.5 > RST 6.5 > RST 5.5 > INTR
