3.6.2 Synchronizing Software and Hardware Events
The execution sequence of a program and hardware events occurring within a system are often
asynchronous to each other. In some systems there may be a requirement to suspend program ex-
ecution until an event (or events) occurs, then continue program execution.
One way to synchronize software execution with hardware events requires the use of interrupts.
Executing a HALT instruction suspends program execution until an unmasked interrupt occurs.
However, there is a delay associated with servicing the interrupt before program execution can
proceed. Using the WAIT instruction removes the delay associated with servicing interrupts.
