Hi. I am having trouble getting the sd_app_evt_wait() call to work correctly in my code. My main program works like this:
<inits>
for(;;)
{
<read saadc>
<sd_app_evt_wait> // app_timer should make this return in 10 seconds
}
I have an app_timer that causes sd_app_evt_wait to return by firing every 10 seconds. The problem is, after sampling the ADCs, the call to sd_app_evt_wait returns immediately, running the loop forever. It doesn't sleep and wait for the timer. If I put a second call to sd_app_evt_wait directly after the first, the first call returns, and the second call sleeps until the timer wakes it (desired operation, but with two calls). From what I have learned of the sd_app_evt_wait function, if there are pending interrupts, it will immediately return. However, if I read the NVIC->ISPR at any time, it is 0. No interrupts pending, but sd_app_evt_wait returns once, then sleeps properly, on the Second call. I read about the FPU interrupts, so I added the following:
uint32_t FPU_EXCEPTION_MASK = 0x0000009F;
pending = __get_FPSCR();
if (pending)
{
NRF_LOG_DEBUG("FPU Exceptions: %d\r\n", pending);
/* Clear exceptions and PendingIRQ from the FPU unit */
__set_FPSCR(__get_FPSCR() & ~(FPU_EXCEPTION_MASK));
(void) __get_FPSCR();
NVIC_ClearPendingIRQ(FPU_IRQn);
}
but they don't help. The variable "pending" is always 0, and the ISPR is always 0. Adding
NVIC_ClearPendingIRQ(SAADC_IRQn);
NVIC_ClearPendingIRQ(FPU_IRQn);
before the first call to sd_app_evt_wait doesn't help either. What am I missing?
