5 Interrupts

The document discusses PIC16 C interrupts. It describes how interrupts allow an external event to initiate a control sequence that takes priority over the current microcontroller activity. Interrupts are frequently used with hardware timers to implement timed delays and intervals. The interrupt has to be initialized at the top of the program. The PIC16F87XA family has up to 15 sources of interrupt. It also provides functions for enabling, disabling, and clearing interrupts.

PIC16 C Interrupts
• Interrupts allow an external event to initiate a control sequence that
takes priority over the current MCU activity. Typically, the interrupt
service routine (ISR) carries out some operation associated with the
port or internal device that requested the interrupt.
• Interrupts are frequently used with hardware timers, which provide
delays, timed intervals, and measurement. A time delay can be
implemented using a simple software counting loop, but this has the
Microcontrollers

disadvantage of tying up the processor while the delay executes. A


more efficient technique is to use a hardware timer running
independently from the MCU clock. This allows accurate timing to be
more easily achieved, and the timer can run concurrently with some
other task. A time-out interrupt informs the MCU that the timer interval
has expired and the ISR can implement the required action.
• The interrupt has to be initialized for use at the top of the program
• The PIC16F87XA family has up to 15 sources of interrupt.
