Need help with interrupt

[Acetronics2]

Hi,

I only can see one button connected to External Interrupt RB0. PIC16F628, only haves 1 External Interrupt, that is the RB0 Pin. The other butons that you add to the circuit, will not work as interruopt.

Hi, Folks

I think something has to be cleared ...

You also can get " interrupt on change " interrupt with Port B.4 to B.7 ... or ' comparator interrupts" from the Comparator inputs ...

so, the 3 buttons can generate their own interrupt ...

Obviously the scheme has to be modified to place the buttons on the right pins ....

Not only the sheme but also the interrupt source on PBP code. Instead of INT_INT, must put RBC_INT, to make it Interrupt on PortB Change.

so you need two buttons to generate an interrupt?

I've just been through all this pain & rx'ed a lot of help on my recent thread...

To summarise....you can have two switches connected to just the one PIC 'INT' pin - but you'll need to connect some diodes if going that way (I posted a schematic on the above thread).
Else, as Bruce kindly informed me on that very thread, you can use Interrupt on Change...which was a little more involved (but not a whole lot more)...& which doesn't need diodes & gives you a whole lot more options wrt which PIC pins you can connect your switches to.

Thanks guys for the support, I will explore more on this when I get home...
