摘要:
An interrupt controller comprises a circuit for holding information obtained by designating one priority selected from a plurality of priorities for each of a plurality of interrupt requests, and a flag for indicating whether or not a nesting is allowed for an interrupt request having at least one predetermined priority of the plurality of priorities. On the basis of the priority information held in the circuit and information held in the flag, a controller operates so that when an interrupt request is generated in the course of execution of an interrupt processing having the predetermined priority, if the flag is in a first condition, the controller acknowledges the generated interrupt request only when the priority of the generated interrupt request is higher than the predetermined priority, and if the flag is in a second condition, the controller acknowledges the generated interrupt request not only when the priority of the generated interrupt request is higher than the predetermined priority, but also when the priority of the generated interrupt request is the same as the predetermined priority.

An information processor has at least one interface unit by which the processor is coupled to a peripheral equipment. The interface unit can selectively generate either a first mode signal or a second mode signal when the processor performs an interruption operation according to request from the peripheral equipment. When the processor performs the interruption operation in response to the first mode signal, a stack operation for saving information necessary to restart a program execution which is stopped by the interruption to a stack memory is performed before start of the interruption operation. While the processor can perform the interruption operation in response to the second mode signal without the stack operation, whereby an improved processor with less overhead can be provided.

A serial data processor is coupled to a single data line and a single clock line for serial data transfer in synchronism with a clock signal. The data processor comprises a shift register coupled to the serial data line and operated to serially output the data in synchronism with a clock on the clock line, and an output buffer connected to receive the data serially outputted from the shift register and coupled to sequentially output the received data to the data line. This output buffer includes a push-pull driver having an output connected to the data line and an input driven by the data serially outputted from the shift register. A clock counter is coupled to receive the clock on the clock line so as to maintain the push-pull driver in an operable condition until the count value reaches a predetermined value and to bring the output of the push-pull driver into a floating condition after the count value reached a predetermined value. There is provided a data line control circuit coupled to the data line and controlled by the clock counter to bring the data line to a high level after the count value of the clock counter reaches the predetermined value.

Method of welding a carbon steel and a austenitic stainless steel involves using high density energy beam like a laser beam or electron beam. Welding using high density energy beam is effective to obtain a high precision welding. For the purpose of obtaining both high precision and no cracks, and no deformation, the method of the invention controls the structure of a weld portion to be a mixed structure of an austenitic structure and not greater than 20 wt % of a ferritic structure.

A serial interface circuits internally provided in a microcomputer and including a shift register is provided with two sets of terminals, each set including a serial data input terminal, a serial data output terminal and a clock terminal, and the two sets of terminals am alternatively used by a serial channel selection flag. Thus, a multi-channel serial interface is realized.

An information processor has at least one interface unit by which the processor is coupled to a peripheral equipment. The interface unit can selectively generate either a first mode signal or a second mode signal when the processor performs and interruption operation according to request from the peripheral equipment. When the processor performs the interruption operation in response to the first mode signal, a stack operation for saving information necessary to restart a program execution which is stopped by the interruption to a stack memory is performed before start of the interruption operation. While the processor can perform the interruption operation in response to the second mode signal without the stack operation, whereby an improved processor with less overhead can be provided.

An information processor has at least one interface unit by which the processor is coupled to peripheral equipment. The interface unit can selectively generate either a first mode signal or a second mode signal when the processor performs an interruption operation according to request from the peripheral equipment. When the processor performs the interruption operation in response to the first mode signal, a stack operation for saving information necessary to restart execution of a program which is stopped by the interruption in a stack memory is performed before the start of the interruption operation. The processor can perform the interruption operation in response to the second mode signal without the stack operation, providing an improved processor with less overhead. The two interruption mode technique is described in a number of applications, including D/A conversion, serial data transmission and reception, and operation of computer peripheral devices.
摘要:
A data processor includes a CPU and an A/D converter for converting one of several analog inputs into digital data. A data memory stores data designating analog inputs to be converted. A circuit, responsive to an A/D conversion completion signal from the A/D converter, supplies a macro service operation request to the CPU, which interrupts the CPU without having to save the contents of a CPU program counter and a CPU status register. Upon completion of the A/D conversion, the converted digital data are stored in a predetermined location, and CPU execution resumes.
