Research the concept of interrupts in a computer. You may want to look into how the Z80 microprocessor handles interrupt. A good source of Z80 information is Zaks, R. (1980). Programming the Z80. Sybex. The Z80 8 bit microprocessor has been in production for forty years. Knowledge of the Z80 is a great lead-in for further study in more complicated machines.
Please briefly discuss the Z80 microprocessor and the concept of interrupts.
