Introduction: INTERRUPT Using AVR:

Interrupts:

  • An interrupt is an external or internal event that interrupts the microcontroller to inform it that a device needs its service.
  • Interrupts vs. Polling • A single microcontroller can serve several devices. •
  • There are two ways to do that: – interrupts – Polling. •
  • The program which is associated with the interrupt is called the interrupt service routine (ISR) or interrupt handler.

Step 1: Steps in Executing an Interrupt:

  • Finish current instruction and saves the PC on stack.
  • Jumps to a fixed location in memory depend on type of interrupt
  • Starts to execute the interrupt service routine until RETI (return from interrupt)
  • Upon executing the RETI the microcontroller returns to the place where it was interrupted. Get pop PC from stack
