NMI delay

How much is an NMI delayed if triggered during IRQ-setup?

To really get an answer to this the PLA ROM needs to be understood.
Please don't call it PLA. It's not programmable, it's just a ROM. =)

So, well, it's programmable (by whoever edits a mask and re-runs production), but not field programmable... essentially the same technology as ROM. Ooookay. :)

"the original 6502 chip contained a PLA"

It's obviously not a full ROM.

That's simply wrong. It's a decode ROM, no more, no less. (And yes, what Krill said. Its not a traditional ROM, sure. Its a logic array. And that kind of thing is usually called decode ROM - not PLA. PLA is programmable, not mask edited.)

Wrong. The PLA in the 6502 is sparse. A full ROM maps every single output. The 6502 PLA saves space compared to a full ROM.

It's why we have illegal opcodes.

You don't have to copypaste me the ill informed stuff that you found on reddit.

FPLA is a synonym for the (modern) FPGA btw - and has zero to do with the oldschool "PLA".

(yes, please inform me about how illegal opcodes work, i always wanted to know)

Wrong again.
Look at the chip layout, it's obviously a PLA, not a full ROM.
