    Default 12F675 - How to configure the INTCON command to activate the various interrupts?

    Good morning
    As I am new to understanding and using Interrupts, could you explain to me the configuration of the INTCON command for a small PIC12F675?
    The PBP manual gives as an example:
    INTCON = %10010000 ' Enable RB0 interrupt
    But I don't know for which PIC this command is valid (because I imagine it varies depending on the PIC used?).

    Unless I am mistaken, the 6 ports of the PIC12F675 would make it possible to cause interrupts.
    What would then be the commands to activate the various interrupts on GP0,1,2,3,4 and5 ?

    Thanks all.

    intcon is not a command, its a special function register
    while the intcon reg is fairly similar in operation across the pic spectrum you need to always consult the data sheet for your chip
    to ensure correct usage for the type/s of interrupt in question

    the data sheet also has a section on interrupt types and how to configure them
    the data sheet also will spell out how to save and restore mcu context to incorporate in your isr [interrupt service routine]code
    the data sheet also has a section on ioc [int on change] for the gpio on that chip


    What would then be the commands to activate the various interrupts on GP0,1,2,3,4 and5
    there is no pbp command for that you need to set the appropriate registers yourself , properly of course

    Indeed, INTCON is not strictly speaking a "command" but a configuration of the bits of the INTCON register obtained by a "line of code" of the style INTCON = 10010000.

    I obviously consulted the datasheet of the PIC12F675 on the page relating to the INTCON register. (see attached jpg)
    However, I do not see how to configure the six available ports.
    At first, I would already be well advanced for my project if I could define an interrupt on the GP0 port.

    For the others, we will see later with the assistance of the available specialists of this forum whom I already thank in advance.

    Hi,
    In fact, I'm more of a PICAXE user and I transform my "simple" codes with PBP to program small PICs.
    I was trying to use interrupts...
    The subtleties of the PICs are therefore quite nebulous for me and my English is not flexible and subtle enough to understand the mysteries of the data sheets.
    In fact what I wanted to do initially seemed easy to me... but it doesn't seem to be the case

    I just want to vary a variable named MODE from 0 to 3, 0 to 3, ..., when port GP0 (which has a pull-up resistor to Vcc) goes to zero state.

    If someone could help me out with just this little routine, that would be great.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi, Richard,
    I will carefully read your .txt files.
    But I really only master Basic... not really ASM

    I will carefully read your .txt files.
    not sure if I have to point out the obvious but
    what sort of file would "ZORB.pbp.txt" if you took the ".txt" off the end ?
    [the pbp forum will not allow a pbp file to be uploaded , you need to mask its type with a .txt extension]


    But I really only master Basic... not really ASM
    such a limited outlook

    good luck employing interrupts in any other way with such limited chips as 12f675

    " not sure if I have to point out the obvious" but you often have some degrading, demeaning cutting comment to people seeking help. Basically a reflection of yourself......

    I will carefully read your .txt files.
    i read that as either a lack of understanding on how files are uploaded onto the forum or
    a intimation that i have uploaded something weird, unusual or incorrect. i don't know which
    but either way since it was specifically pointed out an explanation was warranted


    not sure if I have to point out the obvious but...
    makes it clearer why the txt extension is there and how to deal with it, just in case an explanation was
    necessary

    To activate a single I/O pin as IOC (Interrupt on Change) you use the "IOC" Register; Register 3.4 in the Data Sheet:
    Code:
    IOC.0 = 1  'Enables IOC on GPIO 0
    If you want to enable IOC interrupts on multiple GPIO pins you can use the IOC Register in binary mode. Assume you want an IOC Interrupt on GPIO pins 0 & 1:
    Code:
    IOC = 000011  'Enables IOC on GPIO 0 & 1
    Then you must enable IOC interrupts using the INTCON Register:
    Code:
    INTCON.3 = 1  'Enables IOC Interrupts
    Next, you need to create an Interrupt Handler (See PBP Manual) so when you get the Interrupt, you can do something with it. In your Interrupt Handler, when you get an IOC interrupt you have to clear the Interrupt Flag:
    Code:
    INTCON.0 = 0  'Clears IOC Interrupt Flag
    If you need more than one GPIO IOC Interrupt (2 or more Port Pins), you will have to Poll which GPIO triggered the IOC Interrupt:
    Code:
    IF GPIO.0 = 1 THEN
      <Interrupt Handler Code for GPIO.0>
    ELSE IF GPIO.1 = 1 THEN
      <Interrupt Handler Code for GPIO.1>
    ENDIF
    The above code assumes that a low-to-high transition triggers your IOC interrupt. You may need to change that depending on your goals.

    <edit> I tried to write "IOC = 000011 'Enables IOC on GPIO 0 & 1" but the forum keeps changing it to "IOC = 000011 'Enables IOC on GPIO 0 & 1"

    Next, you need to create an Interrupt Handler (See PBP Manual) so when you get the Interrupt, you can do something with it. In your Interrupt Handler, when you get an IOC interrupt you have to clear the Interrupt Flag:
    not forgetting :-


    A mismatch condition will continue to set flag bit GPIF.
    Reading GPIO will end the mismatch condition and
    allow flag bit GPIF to be cleared.

    Thank you all.
    I will try to assimilate all these notions.
    Have a good day.
