Interrupts

The WonderSwan features fourteen different interrupts:

  • CPU interrupts - six provided by the V30MZ CPU ($00-$05),
  • Hardware interrupts - eight provided by the SoC's hardware ($00-$07, or $08-$0F, or $10-$1F, or ... $F8-$FF - controlled by an offset V):
    • Level - will be constantly requested while enabled and the prerequisite condition is true,
    • Edge - will only be requested while enabled the moment the prerequisite condition becomes true.

Interrupt requests happen when the condition is true and the interrupt is enabled. Note that edge interrupts are only requested once; level interrupts are requested constantly, making acknowledgements ineffective until the condition is cleared or the interrupt is disabled. However, neither disabling an interrupt nor satisfying the condition clears the acknowledgement bit.

The user can additionally make use of all 256 available interrupt vectors in their own code.
