https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/27333/how-to-configure-interrupt-on-gpio-pin-to-detect-button-stateHi Team, I am using sdk12.2.2 and nrf52. I want to use one gpio to detect button state &amp; have to operation on that event. I used one method to configure(code snippet written below) nrf_drv_gpiote_in_config_t in_config = GPIOTE_CONFIG_IN_SENSE_TOGGLEen-USTelligent Community 13Mon, 20 Nov 2017 13:35:16 GMThttps://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/107966?ContentTypeID=1Mon, 20 Nov 2017 13:35:16 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:2f196394-8545-4d94-a7a1-4b63bd1033a7ovrebekk<p>Hi</p> <p>Did you try to configure the pin with the accuracy flag set to false?</p> <p>Then you should get considerably lower sleep currents, but accuracy might suffer if you toggle the pin very quickly.</p> <p>Best regards<br /> Torbjørn</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/107965?ContentTypeID=1Fri, 17 Nov 2017 13:40:22 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:4f4b471c-0003-438a-96d6-c6f9eb74c1bbendnode<p>You don&#39;t use interrupts to detect GPIO value LOW/HIGH (= &quot;button state&quot; if you want). Simply configure GPIO line as input and read it (see functions <code>nrf_gpio_cfg_input</code> and <code>nrf_gpio_pin_read</code> in <code>components\drivers_nrf\hal\nrf_gpio.h</code> file).</p> <p>However if you also want to detect change of that value then you need to configure and use GPIOTE and that comes at cost of few micro Amps. It cannot live from nothing, that looks logical to me. If 20uA ruins your device then you are probably building thing according to unrealistic requirements/assumptions.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
