I'm very confused about the external interrupt of nRF24LE1

[Albert]

nrf24LE1 external interrupt is not easy to use , I use nRF24LE1 48pin chip, and the external interrupt 0 (GPINT0)is configured to falling edge trigger, but it can not be triggered,when i give a falling edge to that pin. Configured as a low level trigger, it always in a trigger condition, the manual says P12 is GPINT0 pin, I applied a pull-up resistor and also configured input pull-up, P12 should always be in a high state, how can external interrupt be triggered? ? ?

Anybody can help me with the external interrupt of nRF24LE1?? thank you very much!

The following is a configuration of the external interrupt：

INTEXP = 0x08; //GPINT0 Enable
TCON   = 0x01;//Falling edge trigger
IEN0   = 0x81;//enable External interrupt 0 and global interrupt
P1CON = 0x52;//P12 input pull up
P1DIR = 0x04;//P12 input

Hi Albert,

I'm attaching an example that I just verified to work. I assume you're using the 48-pin LE1 based on your configuration (all the different mechanical packages have different dedicated pin outs on peripherals).

Best regards Håkon

thank you Håkon, your example just works as the same with my project,The LED(P00) is not toggled when i give a falling edge to P13,and i configure INT1 on low level(IT0=0),LED is toggled continuously,but i did nothing to P13. A strange phenomenon of your example is that only after i download the code to nRF24LE1's flash,the INT1 is trggered once(IT0 = 1),just once! I don't know why is it so,is it the chip bad??

OMG,It realy is the hardware problems,i changed a chip,your example works well,thank you very much Håkon!
