The outputs of the flip-flops are used as the three least significant<br />
bits of the Interrupt Vector to provide eight different start<br />
addresses for the interrupt routines.<br />
They are also decoded to form an acknowledge signal indicating<br />
which interrupt request has been served. In the handshake procedue<br />
this signal sets the acknowledge flip-flop (ACKN). The acknowledge<br />
flip-flop is reset only when the INTREQ signal is de-activated. With<br />
this logic, however, the INTREQ signal must be de-acti vated before<br />
the end of the interrupt routine (return instruction), otherwise, the<br />
routine may be repeated.<br />
