Vertical blank interrupt: Art & Overview

A vertical blank interrupt (also known as a vertical blanking interrupt, vertical retrace interrupt or abbreviations of these such as VBL or VBI) is a hardware feature found in many older computer systems that generate a video signal. Video display circuits must generate vertical blanking and vertical sync pulses to indicate the start of each field…
