The following driver API modes are covered by this manual:
The following peripheral is used by this module:
The following devices can use this module:
The outline of this documentation is as follows:
There are no prerequisites for this module.
The External Interrupt (EXTINT) module provides a method of asynchronously detecting rising edge, falling edge, or specific level detection on individual I/O pins of a device. This detection can then be used to trigger a software interrupt or event, or polled for later use if required. External interrupts can also optionally be used to automatically wake up the device from sleep mode, allowing the device to conserve power while still being able to react to an external stimulus in a timely manner.
The External Interrupt module contains a number of logical channels, each of which is capable of being individually configured for a given pin routing, detection mode, and filtering/wake up characteristics.
Each individual logical external interrupt channel may be routed to a single physical device I/O pin in order to detect a particular edge or level of the incoming signal.
One or more Non Maskable Interrupt (NMI) channels are provided within each physical External Interrupt Controller module, allowing a single physical pin of the device to fire a single NMI interrupt in response to a particular edge or level stimulus. An NMI cannot, as the name suggests, be disabled in firmware and will take precedence over any in-progress interrupt sources.
NMIs can be used to implement critical device features such as forced software reset or other functionality where the action should be executed in preference to all other running code with a minimum amount of latency.
To reduce the possibility of noise or other transient signals causing unwanted device wake-ups, interrupts, and/or events via an external interrupt channel. A hardware signal filter can be enabled on individual channels. This filter provides a Majority-of-Three voter filter on the incoming signal, so that the input state is considered to be the majority vote of three subsequent samples of the pin input buffer. The possible sampled input and resulting filtered output when the filter is enabled is shown in the table below.
| Input Sample 1 | Input Sample 2 | Input Sample 3 | Filtered Output |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 |
| 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 |
| 0 | 1 | 1 | 1 |
| 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| 1 | 0 | 1 | 1 |
| 1 | 1 | 0 | 1 |
| 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 |
Channel detection states may be polled inside the application for synchronous detection, or events and interrupts may be used for asynchronous behavior. Each channel can be configured to give an asynchronous hardware event (which may in turn trigger actions in other hardware modules) or an asynchronous software interrupt.
The diagram below shows how this module is interconnected within the device.
Not all devices support disabling of the NMI channel(s) detection mode - see your device datasheet.
