Interrupts
This library allows users to trigger a process interrupt function or enable/disable an interrupt function when the input to a pin changes value.
attachInterrupt
- Description
- Specifies a function to execute (call) when an external interrupt occurs (signal on external pin).
- Syntax
- attachInterrupt(pin, void(*)(void) func, mode)
- Parameters
- pin: The number of pin used for the interrupt (0, 1, 11, 12)
func: The function to call when the interrupt occurs
mode:
LOW (to trigger the interrupt whenever the pin is low)
CHANGE (to trigger the interrupt whenever the pin changes value)
FALLING (to trigger when the pin goes from high to low)
RISING (to trigger when the pin goes from low to high) - Returns
- None
detachInterrupt
- Description
- Turns off the interrupt specified in attachInterrupt.
- Syntax
- detatachInterrupt(pin)
- Parameters
- pin: The number of pin used for the interrupt (0, 1, 11, 12)
- Returns
- None
interrupts
- Description
- Re-enables the interrupt disabled in noInterrupts.
- Syntax
- interrupts()
- Parameters
- None
- Returns
- None
noInterrupts
- Description
- Disables an interrupt process. Use this when you need to protect the timing of a specific process; this can even be used to disable an important task run in the background.
- Syntax
- noInterrupts()
- Parameters
- None
- Returns
- None
Sample Program
This is a sample that generates an interrupt when you press SW0 (Int4).
#include <Arduino.h>
void blink()
{
state = !state;
}
int pin = PIN_LED0;
volatile int state = LOW;
void setup()
{
pinMode(pin, OUTPUT);
attachInterrupt(0, blink, CHANGE);
}
void loop()
{
digitalWrite(pin, state);
}
