| comp., MS | advanced programmable interrupt controller | בקר פסיקה מתקדם ניתן לתיכנות (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 | בקשת פסיקה (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 | קו בקשת פסיקה (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 | רוטינת שירות פסיקה (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 | פסיקה שאינה ניתנת למיסוך (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 | בקר פסיקה ניתן לתכנות (A device that functions as an overall manager in an interrupt driven system) |
