Hi there, I am trying to get a signal to the P89LPC932 Micro Controller by using the External interrupt 1 (P1.4). I never tried this before and I am also a beginner programming. Can anyone help me figuring out why this program does not work. The interrupt is supposed to be edge triggered and every time an interrupt occurs a counter (NPulses) is incremented til it gets to 1000 pulses. then it goes back to zero. I think my problem is configuring the timers registers, but I am not too sure. Here is the code. Thank you, ============================================ #include <Reg932.h> #include <stdio.h> void init(void); void brkrst_init(void); void Pulses_recieved (void); unsigned long NPulses; //amount of pulses received unsigned int Glass; void ToggleC1Input (void); sbit Pulse = P1^4; int Glassid, count; void Main(void) { P2 = 0x00; NPulses = 0; Glass = 10; Glassid = 0; count = 0; init(); brkrst_init(); Pulses_recieved(); } void init(void) { P1M1 = 0xFF; // Input only P1M2 = 0x00; P2M1 = 0x00; // push pull output P2M2 = 0xFF; ES = 1; EA = 1; } void brkrst_init(void) // This function allows ISP entry through the UART break detect { AUXR1 |= 0x40; // enable reset on break detect, pg. 102 SCON = 0x50; // select the BRG as UART baud rate source, pg. 60 SSTAT = 0x00; //TCON = 0x04; BRGR0 = 0x70; // 9600 BAUD at 11.0592 MHz. Hex 0470= 1136 decimal BRGR1 = 0x04; BRGCON = 0x03; // enable BRG, pg. 59 } void UART(void) interrupt 4 { RI = 0; } void Pulses_recieved(void) { while(1) { TCON = 0x40; IEN0 = 0x04; EA = EA | 1; } } void ExtPulses (void) interrupt 2 { NPulses++; if (NPulses == 1000) { NPulses = 0; Glassid++; P2 = Glassid; } } =============================================
Hi, What is the problem to put MCU into Power Down mode? The main problem I see is that after PD mode will be activated your MCU stays at this mode till external reset generated (some MCUs allow to wake up from other inputs; unfortunately - not via T0/T1 pins). Are you sure that you need to stop all the program once really? Maybe it should be Idle mode? Anyway if so then I dunno about waiting time calculation because we need to know about frequence of input pulses at least. Btw, sorry about silence. You know, the main usage of the forum is the compiler/linker/debuger problems, but the program issues itself --- I recommend you to visit http://www.8052.com good days!
Dear: Oleg Sergeev The "external interrupt" program you helped on (receiving pulses through timer 0)is working fine. I have added more details (tasks) to it and now it looks like its counting more pulses than the expected. This is a multitasking problem (I think) could you give me an idea what could be wrong? Thank you
