WORDS LINKD TOPIC

1

interrupt software signal stop

An interrupt is a sent from a device or from to the microprocessor . This will cause the microprocessor to temporarily what it is
doing so that it can service the .

2

printer paper fault timing

Interrupts can be caused by :

» a signal
» an input / output process ( for example , a disk drive or requiring more data )
» a hardware ( for example , a jam in the printer )




3

presses two same system found execution

Interrupts can be caused by :

» user interaction ( for example , the user a key ( or keys ) on a keyboard , such as , which causes the to be interrupted )
» software errors that cause a problem ( for example , an . exe file that cannot be to initiate the of a program , processes trying to access the memory location , or an attempt to divide by zero ) .

4

type received stops program priority

Once the interrupt signal is , the microprocessor either carries on with what it was doing or to service the device or that caused the interrupt . The computer needs to identify the interrupt and also establish the level of interrupt .

5

open tasks simultaneously user functions

Interrupts allow computers to carry out many or to have several windows at the same time . An example would be downloading a file from the internet at the same time as listening to some music from a library . Interrupts allow these two to co - exist and the has the impression that both functions are being carried out .

6

data temporarily rapidly memory buffer memory

In reality , is being passed in and out of very allowing both functions to be serviced . This can all be achieved by using an area in known as a buffer . A is a memory area that stores data .

7

speeds difference movie rate buffer

Buffers are used when downloading a from the internet to compensate for the between download and the data requirements of the receiving device . The data transmission of the movie file from the web server to the must be greater than the rate at which data is transmitted from buffer to media player . Without buffers , the movie would frequently ? freeze ? .

8

saved Counter received serviced task

Whenever an interrupt is it needs to be . The status of the current being run first needs to be . The contents of the Program ( PC ) and other registers are saved .

9

tasks waste power idle

Without buffers and interrupts , the microprocessor would remain waiting for a document to be printed . This would be an incredible
of microprocessor time ; the buffers and interrupts allow the microprocessor to carry on with other while the document is being printed thus maximizing its processing and speed .

10

external increased ignored Low

A Hardware Interrupt is caused either by hardware the internal hardware . When they occur the PC is not . Causes of failure can be an I / O request . priority is given to them and they can be .

11

cannot program system interrupt high

A Software Interrupt is caused by the internal and results in an increase in the counter . An INT instruction is used to create the , for which priority is given and be ignored .
