摘要: A computer system includes a filter at an interrupt request input for microprocessor system. The signal suppresses any positive pulse that is shorter than 9 cycles of the host clock. Only signals are asserted least 17 HCLK guaranteed passage to controller assert request. In addition, negative on IRQ latched and extended thus noise prevent unnecessary interrupts, provides enhanced detection levels rising edges negative-going signals.
