Abstract
This device controls the interrupts of a microprocessor based on events occurring in at least one entity associated with this microprocessor. The device organizes the storage of words representative of at least an origin and a type of the interrupt issued by the entity. The interrupts from the entity are stored in an area of a memory. When there is more than one entity, each entity has an area of memory allocated to it. The microprocessor can access these memory areas and process the interrupts. An indicator is also provided so that the device can tell when a memory area has become full.
