+### Frame interrupt
+
+When interrupts are enabled (IF not set), 60 times per second there will be a
+frame interrupt:
+
+* the PC is saved on the stack
+* the F register (flags) is saved on the stack
+* all the flags are cleared and IF is set
+* the execution goes to the address in `0xff00` (the frame interrupt vector)
+* the interruption handler code must return with `IRET`, that will restore
+  the PC and the F register
+
+By default the vector points to `0x0000` so it has to be setup before enabling
+interrupts with `CIF`.
+
+Example:
+
+```asm
+    ; setup an int handler so we
+    ; can use the frame int o sync
+    ld a, 0xff
+    ld x, 0
+    ld b, <int_handler
+    ld [a : x], b
+    inc x
+    ld b, >int_handler
+    ld [a : x], b
+
+    ; enable interrupts
+    cif
+
+loop:
+    halt
+    jmp loop
+
+int_handler:
+    ; just return
+    iret
+```
