In [[computing]], a '''level-triggered interrupt''' is a class of [[interrupt]]s that can be triggerdtriggered on either the rising edge or falling edge of the [[interrupt request]] line. An assertion of the line changes it from low to high or high to low. This class of interrupts allows multiple devices to efficiently share the same interrupt line.

Compare [[edge triggered interrupt]].
