Interrupt
If an interrupt request flag (××IF) is set before an instruction clock n (n = 4 to 10) under execution becomes n − 1,
the interrupt is acknowledged after the instruction under execution is complete. Figure 12-8 shows an example of the
interrupt request acknowledgment timing for an 8-bit data transfer instruction MOV A, r. Since this instruction is
executed for 4 clocks, if an interrupt occurs for 3 clocks after the instruction fetch starts, the interrupt acknowledgment
processing is performed after the MOV A, r instruction is executed.
