| comp., MS | advanced programmable interrupt controller | vylepšený programovatelný řadič přerušení (A programmable interrupt controller (PIC) that provides multiprocessor interrupt management. An APIC incorporates both static and dynamic symmetric interrupt distribution across all processors. It usually has more available interrupt lines than a typical PIC) |
| comp., MS | interrupt request | požadavek přerušení (A signal sent by a device to get the attention of the processor when the device is ready to accept or send information) |
| comp., MS | interrupt request line | požadavek přerušení (A hardware line over which a peripheral device, bus controller, other processor, or the kernel signals a request for service to the microprocessor) |
| comp., MS | interrupt service routine | přerušovací rutina (A kernel-mode interrupt that is small, very fast pieces of assembly code that map physical interrupts onto logical interrupts. ISRs are used to provide hooks back to the kernel as well as device drivers) |
| comp., MS | nonmaskable interrupt | nemaskovatelné přerušení (A hardware interrupt that bypasses and takes priority over interrupt requests generated by software and by the keyboard and other such devices. A nonmaskable interrupt cannot be overruled (masked) by another service request and is issued to the microprocessor only in disastrous circumstances, such as severe memory errors or impending power failures) |
| comp., MS | programmable interrupt controller | programovatelný řadič přerušení (A device that functions as an overall manager in an interrupt driven system) |
