The interrupt service routine isr will be run, implementing any. Introduction to simulate external interrupts using atmel. The interrupt controller reduces the numerous peripheral interrupt request signals to a single interrupt request signal to the microcontroller core. Thus, normally interrupts will remain disabled inside the handler until the handler exits, where the reti instruction that is emitted by the compiler as part of the normal function epilogue for an interrupt handler will eventually reenable further. Even a single line of code would require this particular header file. Basics when an interrupt occurs, the current program execution is stopped, the context is saved and the control jumps to interrupt.

This post continues the series of simple arduino applications written in c instead of the official arduino language and ide. That is the attachinterrupt code assigns its own interrupt handler to the system interrupt vector and when the event happens, it has to figure out which event happened on what pin and call the users appropriate handler. Timer interrupts are an excellent way of having your avr do something at a given interval. In response to the interrupt, the cpu finishes any pending instructions and then ceases fetching further instructions. To use an external interrupt, the pin has to be configured as a standard io input it can also be used as an output, but in this case the interrupt can only be created by the controller itself. This free program was originally designed by atmel corporation. V2 is hot off the press, so if you ask any more questions in the near future, you should mention you are using v2.
