ONLY If two interrupts occur at the exact same time (same cycle), the interrupt with higher priority will execute first.

Erik

You sure about that?

Shouldn't you write: Only if two interrupts becomes possible at the same clock cycle? An interrupt may become possible for a number of reasons - the end of an interrupt handler, the enabling of an interrupt flag or some form of event matching an interrupt event.
