The 8086 family of microprocessors can recognise 256 different interrupts, each with a unique type code number that identifies it to the microprocessor. Interrupt is the method of creating a temporary halt during program execution and allows peripheral devices to access the microprocessor.
Interrupts of 8086 the 8086 microprocessor has 256 types of interrupts which come from any one of the three sources mentioned above. An 8086 interrupt can come from any one the three sources. The addressing mode in which the data operand is a part of the instruction itself is known as immediate addressing mode. These lines are hardwired on the motherboard and directly access the processor. The 8 data bytes are stored from memory location e000h to e007h. Type 0 to type 4 interrupts these are used for fixed operations and hence are called dedicated interrupts 2.
The 8086 processor has dual facility of initiating these 256 interrupts. Divide by zero interruptwhen the quotient from either a div or idiv instruction. Also known as overflow interrupts is generally existent after an arithmetic operation was performed. When microprocessors receive interrupt signals through pins hardware of microprocessor, they are known as hardware interrupts.

An interrupt is a hardwareinitiated procedure that interrupts whatever program is currently executing.
When this interrupt occurs a program would execute up to its break point. Well, a microprocessor or any computing machine is designed in such a way that a single program is to be executed from start to end. Intel has assigned a type number to each interrupt. Each type of software interrupt is associated with an interrupt handler a routine that takes control when the interrupt. There are 16 irq lines on pcs there are 8 irq lines on 80868088 based computers.

The instruction int32, for example will cause the 8086 to do a type 32 interrupt response. This is not actually desired as the user might need to do some other work at the same time so the processor has to.
Hardware interrupts the hardware interrupts differ from all the software interrupts in that they have a direct channel to the processor thorough an interrupt request line or irq. Interrupts versus procedures interrupts initiated by both software and hardware can handle anticipated and unanticipated internal as well as external events isrs or interrupt handlers are memory resident use numbers to identify an interrupt service eflags register is saved automatically procedures can only be initiated. One source is an external signal applied to the nonmaskable interrupt nmi input pin or to the interrupt input pin. The different types of interrupts present in 8086 microprocessor are given by. In other words an 8086 interrupt can come from any one of three sources. Microprocessor responds to the interrupt with an interrupt service routine, which is short program or. Software interrupts are those which are inserted in between the program which means these are mnemonics of. If the interrupts are generated by the software code, they are called as software interrupts. Hardware interrupt is caused by any peripheral device by sending a signal through a specified pin to the microprocessor.
So that when an interrupt has occurred then the cpu will handle by using the fetch, decode and execute operations. There are 5 hardware interrupts in 8085 microprocessor.
