Abstract
A multistage interrupt controller provides a multistage storage means that processes external interrupt signals, including a plurality of multistage interrupt reception registers that can receive and provide temporary storage for corresponding external interrupt signals, an interrupt priority determining circuit that can receive the external interrupt signals from the multistage interrupt reception registers, determine priorities of the external interrupt signals, and dispose of the external interrupt signals according to the priorities, and a logical operator that inverts signals generated by the corresponding multistage interrupt reception registers and provides a logical feedback signal to the multistage interrupt reception registers.
