Hello,
I want to blink the LED by pressing button on nRF9160dk. Is there any sample available to start with?
I started with button demo but on button press there is no output. I saw examples for nRF51/52. But I couldn't find for nRF9160dk.
Thank you

In the Zephyr repository, (/path/to/ncs/zephyr) there are sample applications in the sample folder.
If you enter the /basic/ folder in /samples/, you can find the blinky and button example applications. If you have a play with both of them individually, you can then combine them to create a callback function that when the button is pressed, it flips the output on the LED. (See the button example for how the interrupt callback works)
Once you have that down, you can try setting the button GPIO options to detect both falling and rising edges and then you can create an application that can set the LED output based on the current state of the button.
If you are unsure about any of the functions or what's happening. The Zephyr documentation can help shed light on what everything is doing. docs.zephyrproject.org/.../
Hi,
Thank you for the response, it is working.
I am using push button 2 and LED 2. When I press the button, LED glows continuously. I want a function in which when I release the button, LED stops glowing. I have tried it, but it is not working. What should I do?
I will paste the code.

Hi there,
I reviewed your code and found a couple of issues.
Firstly, read the pin at the ISR point and not constantly in main, it's a quick pin level check and can be performed very fast. You only need to spend time reading the pin when something changes or set a boolean flag in the ISR when it is triggered that can activate code in main to read the button state and set the LED.
Secondly, the pin options used were not correct. To trigger an ISR the rising and falling edge of a pin, you need to use the option GPIO_INT_DOUBLE_EDGE.
Thirdly, your ISR wasn't actually reading the pin state, your if statement was set to if (BUTTON_PIN) not if (BUTTON_STATE). You were always going to enter the 'true' state of the if statement. I have added in the pin reading elements that are running in main to your ISR.
A few additional points,
Consider placing your LED and Button init codes in a seperate function and calling them at the start of main.
The Struct Device for the LEDs is being called every time you run the ISR, remove it from here and only init the struct once and make it callable by placing the define for the LED device struct outside of main.
Consider using the option GPIO_INT_DEBOUNCE on buttons to counter the bouncing effect of buttons.
