About this document
8086 Interrupt Structure and Vector Table by kpenchal615 is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document discusses interrupts in the 8086 microprocessor. It describes how interrupts work by temporarily suspending program execution to handle a different task before returning. When an interrupt occurs, the processor finishes the current instruction and jumps to an interrupt service routine (ISR). After the ISR finishes, it returns to the main program using an IRET instruction. The 8086 has 256 interrupt types divided into dedicated, reserved, and user interrupts. It uses an interrupt vector table to
