5.6.4  Interrupt Response Times 
Table 5.4 shows interrupt response times - the interval between generation of an interrupt request 
and execution of the first instruction in the interrupt handling routine. The execution status 
symbols used in table 5.4 are explained in table 5.5. This LSI is capable of fast word transfer to 
on-chip memory, and have the program area in on-chip ROM and the stack area in on-chip RAM, 
enabling high-speed processing.

Notes: 1.  Two states in case of internal interrupt. 
  2.  Refers to MULXS and DIVXS instructions. 
  3.  Prefetch after interrupt acceptance and interrupt handling routine prefetch. 
  4.  Internal processing after interrupt acceptance and internal processing after vector fetch. 
  5.  Not available in this LSI.
