6.5 MULTIPLE INTERRUPT PROCESSING CONTROL
The µPD750008 can handle multiple interrupts by either of the following methods.
(1) Multiple interrupt processing by a high-order interrupt
In this method, the µPD750008 selects an interrupt source among multiple interrupt sources, enabling
double interrupt processing.
That is, the high-order interrupt specified by the interrupt priority specification register (IPS) is enabled
when the processing status is 0 or 1. Other interrupts (interrupts lower than the specified high-order
interrupt) are enabled only when the status is 0. (See Figure 6-8 and Table 6-3.)
When only one interrupt is used as a level-two interrupt, using this method saves the user the trouble of
enabling or disabling interrupts during an interrupt processing, and holds down the number of nesting
levels to two.
