INSTRUCTION SET
EI
— Enable Interrupts
EI
SYM (0) ← 1
Operation:
An EI instruction sets bit zero of the system mode register, SYM.0 to "1". This allows interrupts to
be serviced as they occur (assuming they have highest priority). If an interrupt's pending bit was
set while interrupt processing was disabled (by executing a DI instruction), it will be serviced
when you execute the EI instruction.
Flags:
No flags are affected.
Format:
opc
Example:
Given: SYM = 00H:
EI
If the SYM register contains the value 00H, that is, if interrupts are currently disabled, the
statement "EI" sets the SYM register to 01H, enabling all interrupts. (SYM.0 is the enable bit for
global interrupt processing.)
