Handling multiple GPIO pin interrupts

[sowmya]

Hello,

I am working on pin interrupts and was able to handle with 1 pin interrupt. I used GPIOTE port interrupt. This is the code snippet for initialising:

	NRF_GPIO->PIN_CNF[Pin_Key] = (GPIO_PIN_CNF_DRIVE_S0S1 << GPIO_PIN_CNF_DRIVE_Pos)
                             | (NRF_GPIO_PIN_PULLUP << GPIO_PIN_CNF_PULL_Pos)
                             | (GPIO_PIN_CNF_INPUT_Connect << GPIO_PIN_CNF_INPUT_Pos)
                             | (GPIO_PIN_CNF_DIR_Input << GPIO_PIN_CNF_DIR_Pos);
NRF_GPIO->PIN_CNF[Pin_Key] |=
(PIN_SENSE_ENABLE | key_status) << GPIO_PIN_CNF_SENSE_Pos;
NRF_GPIOTE->INTENSET = GPIOTE_INTENSET_PORT_Set << GPIOTE_INTENSET_PORT_Pos;
NVIC_EnableIRQ(GPIOTE_IRQn);
NVIC_SetPriority(GPIOTE_IRQn, APP_IRQ_PRIORITY_LOW);

Here is the IRQ:

	if (NRF_GPIOTE->EVENTS_PORT == 0)		// Do we received port event?
{
	return;
}
NRF_GPIOTE->EVENTS_PORT = 0;			// Clear the port event

Now I need one more key to handle and configured in the same way as above. But I am not able to get for which pin interrupt, the ISR is called? Is there a pin interrupt flag bit in nRF51822?

Regards,

Hi Sowmya

The only way to know this is to read the state of the GPIO's to see which of the pins are activated. This means you need to read the pins quick enough, to avoid the pin being de-activated before you have time to read it.

In the nRF52832 we introduced a LATCH register that will latch the wakeup source, so that you won't lose wakeup events if they happen too quickly.

Best regards

All pins configured through PIN_CNF, with SENSE enabled, will trigger the PORT event. Pins configured through the GPIOTE CONFIG registers will trigger the IN events (assuming the GPIOTE is configured in event mode).
