button interruption in nRF52805

[ticture]

excuse me,I'm developing nRF52805 and I set the button pin number like this:

#define BUTTON_START 1

#define BUTTON_1 1

#define BUTTON_2 5

#define BUTTON_3 12

#define BUTTON_4 16

#define BUTTON_STOP 16

what's more, I define like this in advertising_buttons_configure

err_code = bsp_event_to_button_action_assign(0,

BSP_BUTTON_ACTION_PUSH

BSP_EVENT_KEY_0);

RETURN_ON_ERROR_NOT_INVALID_PARAM(err_code);

err_code = bsp_event_to_button_action_assign(1,

BSP_BUTTON_ACTION_PUSH

BSP_EVENT_KEY_1);

RETURN_ON_ERROR_NOT_INVALID_PARAM(err_code);

err_code = bsp_event_to_button_action_assign(2,

BSP_BUTTON_ACTION_PUSH

BSP_EVENT_KEY_2);

RETURN_ON_ERROR_NOT_INVALID_PARAM(err_code);

however, only BSP_EVENT_KEY_0 in bsp_event_handler can produce interruption when I give the pin number 1 a high level.

The other pins(5 and 12) produce BSP_EVENT_KEY_1 and BSP_EVENT_KEY_2 interruption periodically, but I don't give them high level.

Hope you can help me.

Ok, so that suggests that the pad is an active output, which doesn't only pull up or down. The pin is never floating. When the pad is pushed, the pin outputs 0, and when the pad is not pushed it outputs high. 

In this case, you should not use any pullup or pulldown by using NRF_GPIO_PIN_NOPULL instead of NRF_GPIO_PIN_PULLUP.

active state should be 0 (false), like it is.

Try this, and see what happens. If you still see issues, please try to analyze the pad output using a logic analyzer. How long is the output low when you push it, or only for a few ms? Is held low while you hold it? Is it stable, or does it contain bounce?

Best regards,

Maybe it is the problem caused by poor contact, I will make it stable and try again these days, thank you very much.

It may be.

Please note that the app_button, and hence the bsp library has a software debounce, meaning that the pulse must be active (LOW in this case) continuously for 50ms by default. The time (50ms) is configurable, but if the pad already has a debounce (since it may be a "smart device", compared to a mechanical button), it may be that it outputs a pulse shorter than 50ms. If so, you may also try out the example pin_change_int, which is a very simple gpio change detector without debounce. You can give it a go if you like.

But it may also be a poor contact. Or perhaps it doesn't have the drive strength to pull down the pullup set in app_button. Try to set it to NRF_GPIO_PIN_NOPULL, as I suggested in the previous reply.

Best regards,
