WAI (WAit for Interrupt) is a 65x instruction that waits until an interrupt is received. The processor consumes less power while waiting. The RDY pin is pulled low during the third cycle and the bus is freed up. The interrupt is serviced immediately.
If the interrupt disable flag is set, then the way servicing occurs is for control to simply fall through to the instruction following WAI.
If that flag clear, control instead goes into the interrupt handler.
