ATmega16 Interrupts

Interrupts Service Routine

program associated with the interrupt

Interrupt Vector Table

group of memory locations

holding the addresses of ISR

Interrupt Execution

Steps in Interrupt Execution

finishes the instruction currently executing

acknowledges the interrupt

saves Program Counter (also current context) onto stack

jumps to interrupt vector table which redirects to the address

of the interrupt service routine

executes ISR upto RETI statement

retrieves the original context and PC by popping the first byte

of stack
