Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -An interrupt is a signal emitted by a device attached to a computer or from a program within the computer. It requires the operating system (OS) to stop and figure out what to do next. An interrupt temporarily stops or terminates a service or a current process.
Detailed explanation-2: -Within the CPU there is a special wire called the interrupt request line. This line is checked to see if there is a new interrupt signal after each instruction has executed. If the CPU detects a signal on the interrupt request line, it passes control to the interrupt handler routine.
