День томуDo you need speedy reactions and simple coding? Then, interrupts are a good thing to use. And, because interrupts have things in common with deep-sleep, we will also dig into that topic. And we will find some “Secrets of the ESP32”. For sure, we will look “under its hood.”

I worked on embedded systems 15 years ago - we used microcontrollers, GPS, cellular comms, and used this to create telematics devices installed on John Deere and Liebherr equipment (and others). We read the CAN bus, and used interrupts for things like movement, engines turning on and other interrupts. Since then I've been doing product management, and now I'm getting back into this level of coding... and was depressed that Arduinos don't have good interrupts and sleep. Your video has brought me back up to speed SUPER quickly, helping me restore my memory from tape, and quickly jumpstarting me with a new microcontroller board.

Mr Spiess, I enjoy your presentations and like this one too. Thank you for all your effort and shared knowledge. There are several reasons why CPU like this one may have long interrupt latency. One of them (and it is a Real Time limitations of large processors like multicore Intel and ARM) is cache coherency. Simple, interrupt code maybe not present in cache and other current content of the cache need to be saved before reloading new one to/from RAM. For vary fast approach, user need to instruct compiler (I dont know how to do it at ESP32 yet) to keep interrupt service routine (if short) permanently in cache. This is typical approach for RT Linux for example.

@Andreas, I detach the interrupt at the beginning of the ISR on my Dimmer control, it's only 60Hz and an ESP8266 (today) but it did resolve the flickering I was facing at the edges turning on the off the light completely (and smoothly). Wifi has to be on and there is intense MQTT to keep dashboard as real time as possible, so if I miss a trigger at the edges I just complete the cycle one way or another. With this I could literally get the entire 1% to 99% (in a logarithm scale for real light scale) without bugs. Another great video from you. Cheers.

Thanks a lot for your effort, your experiments, the video and the explanations. And we are now back to the same question we discussed when the ESP32 became availabe: How to use the different cores for different tasks in Arduino IDE , e.g. to decouple WiFi. Up to now I did not find a solution. This is why my counter at the water meter still uses 2 pcs ESP8266. One just for counting and tranferring data via HW-serial without any WiFi output and the second for analyzing the data and communication with my home automation system. Not very elegant, but runs very stable, uptime 657 days since the last blackout caused by road construction works.

Always a pleasure to watch your videos. Thanks for this on. I ran into some trubble appling the irq approach to a 100Hz signal with not as perfect steep flanks as in your given example. The isr gets triggered multiple times during rising and falling flanks. The RISING statemend seems to have no effect in the allocation of the irq. The esp32 seems to have problems with shallow flanked and slow signals. In such cases additional HW and Code is needed...
@AndreasSpiess 9 місяців тому
It is always good to have a Schmitt trigger in front of the interrupt input. Maybe you can disable the interrupt for a few ms in the ISR as a work around.
@StefanoBettega 4 роки тому
I agree with your idea of being the RTOS influencing the interrupt latency. The RTOS itself (which seems to mee FreeRTOS reading the definitions you wrote to allow ISRs to be safely called) has surely some routines to schedule our loop() function with its own tasks, which can be in turn the communications module handlers (Wifi and/or Bluetooth). Even though you disable them, they could be still working for some reason. In addition the scheduler itself can use an interrupt to switch internal tasks, and this can be another jitter cause.

Thank you for another interesting and instructive video Andreas. >edit: went through the comments and found this was already reported, sorry I just wanted to add that RTOS seems indeed to be a culprit for the interrupt response latency and jitter. I think that attachInterrupt actually hooks up not to the interrupt controller but to an RTOS callback function. This function is entered the queue of RTOS tasks, and get executed after the completion of all the previous tasks only. Apparently it is possible to get a fast interrupt response when programming using noOS SDK from Espressif but I did not try this yet.

This video helped a lot! I wanted to monitor my PV panel energy harvesting using an ESP8266 and an arduino DUE (i know, not ebergy efficient but thats what I had lying around). Before th is video they were consuming 210mA and up to 250mA when publishing the measurements. Now i modified the sketch so that the DUE is always asleep (by pull down resistor on reset) and only wakes up for 3 sec (by the ESP) to measure and transmit the data to the ESP then go to sleep again. The ESP then (after connecting) publishes the data and goes to sleep for 20 sec or so. The result is that during sleep they both consume on 38mA and only 100mA when the ESP is awake. Only 3 seconds of 200mA now which easily runs this 24/7 on a single 18650 cell and for several days! Thanks for the insight!

@movax20h 4 роки тому
He already did that. I think the issue with ISR is due to arduino code, not ESP32. Also I don't think you really need the mutexes in ISR unless you manipulate more complex data structures from ISR. doing read-modify-write (like count++) from ISR, while rest of the code only do reads (so you might need to have two variables to track how much count you already processed, not reset it back to zero), is safe and doesn't require a mutex.

A great part of the inaccuracy in the interrupt code (at 7:13 in video) is caused by your own loop code: { frequency = count; display(0, "frequency=", frequency); lastEntry=millis(); count=0 } You use count but reset it only after displaying on the pretty slow LCD. That means, all events that occur during the LCD operation are not counted, but lost. Also, if the duration of LCD output varies, it worsens the count precision. You could improve it if you first completed the job of count handling: { frequency = count; count=0; display(0, "frequency=", frequency); lastEntry=millis(); } BTW, your polling loop (at 3:54 in video) would be more elegant if you replaced lastentry= millis(); while (millis() < lastEntry + 1000) {...} with endTime=millis()+1000; while (millis() < endTime) {...} This way the addition would be done only once. However a good compiler might catch this and produce the same binary code.
@movax20h 4 роки тому
The compiler will figure out the optimization you mentioned at the end automatically. There will be no difference in performance. However, your hint about doing count=0; just after reading frequency is a valid one. In fact if you have mutexes used, you can wrap read and reset of the count, into critical block and be even safer. There are other approaches (like not resetting count at all, and remembering the last count, and subtracting it from current count to get new frequency (might require a special handling of overflows tho; but it will not need mutexes).
@heinrich.. 6 місяців тому
it is perfectly fine how he did it. even if the displaying took multiple seconds it wouldnt change anything since the lastEntry variable is changed just before resetting the counter. so it doesnt matter how many counts there were while communicating with the lcd. correct me if i miss something though

I'm currently using the ESP32 for a fft application on net voltage and load current signals (2 analogue channels, 50Hz), where I trigger a timer interrupt up to 1024 times per period, so ~ 100k samples/s on RTOS using both cores. In my case I'm working with hardware interrupt each ~20ms which calculates a timer value for the real period time divided by 1024. This timer or counter calls another ISR every ~ 20µs. In my opinion the ESP32 is fast enough for similar applications. But I'm totally agree with your point of the delay of hardware interrupts. Thanks for your research!

Hello sir , i am very helpful by your videos in my projects and i want to thank you . i have a question , in nodemcu the maximum deep sleep time is around 71 minutes , so if i want to sleep nodemcu whole time until an external interrupt occurs then what should be changes in the code?
@AndreasSpiess 4 роки тому
Nothing. Timer interrupts are different from external interrupts

Nice video you have! I have a question for you if you can to help me. Can I make a wake up event with a touch sensor and in the same time I have timer wake up? I want to use this method to send the data through Wi-Fi(at every one hour) and touch sensor to wake up to see the values via Bluetooth? Or it's too much?

Great video! Most of the programmers don't know that they should use more interrupts! It seems that you can't block the interrupts inside the isr.

@@AndreasSpiess yes i have read. Normaly if you learn interrupt programming, the first command in the ISR is that you mask the interrupts, that no other can block you. Only die NMI is allowed

Hi Andreas, i've been following for a while, you help me a lot with your videos about lora and esp32, which help me to write firmware for a local startup. Latelly i've seen some problems with the esp32 (we have in production more or less 300 boards based on esp32 wrover), sometimes the uc freezes (hangs), i am not sure if this happens after the deepsleep (the device samples data for 3 minutes, and enters in deepsleep for 12 minutes) because of a fail in the RTC to generate the interrup to wake up the board. (the board cannot be accesed once that is deploy, we are using in farms). Have you ever encounter a problem like this? Do you have any recommendation or knowledge about this problem? Thanks in advance, hope you are well!
@AndreasSpiess 3 роки тому
These are bad problems which mainly occur if you deploy many devices. Here I restart my boards without thinking if they do not work anymore. So I cannot answer your question. The only possibility is to start logging and try to provoke the error in a test setup.

hello good video thank you very much it helped me a lot but I have a question I have a set of multiple gpio as an interrupt pointing to the same ISR function, the question is how can I know which GPIO was activated by interrupt? Or are there special methods to do this type of query?
@AndreasSpiess 2 роки тому
I would add different ISRs for each interrupt and call a common function inside each one. Maybe there is also a register to find out which interrupt was triggered. But I do not know it.

@@AndreasSpiess I think the delay is due to other FreeRTOS tasks taking over. Running it on another code could help. You need to create a very high priority task on that core and disable the watchdog timer.

Mr Andreas, thanks for the video. I have a project that extensively uses interrupts. It uses 8 water flow meters to measure water consumption. I have always used portMUX_TYPE mux = portMUX_INITIALIZER_UNLOCKED; in my code without actually understanding its function. I saw you are using portMUX_TYPE sync = portMUX_INITIALIZER_UNLOCKED; Tried to search for the differences but failed to find relevant explanations. Why MUX or SYNC and when to use one or the other? Thanks in advance.
@inclinedplane0192 4 роки тому
That is just a variable name, you could use portMUX_TYPE potato = portMUX_INITIALIZER_UNLOCKED; just refer to the same variable name in your ISR's portENTER_CRITICAL(&potato) and portEXIT_CRITICAL(&potato) calls.

A little off topic but... When using the ext1 deep sleep wake, is it possible to use an IF statement to perform tasks based on which of the buttons woke the esp?

It should be possible to read the pins with digital read as one of the first actions after wake-up
@craigcooper2497 3 роки тому
@@AndreasSpiess thank you for the quick response, definitely an option, but I was only using a single pulse as not to cause multiple wake ups.

GREAT VIDEO!!!! Yes, it´s a penny that ESP32 is not good for Real Time applications. I´ve noticed the high Jitter on interrupts (Varying from 2 to 45us). It would be good if someone finds how to program the interrupt with *high Priority* even on assembler.

@akj7 4 роки тому
Thank you Mr. Spiess for the interesting video. Having started programming Microcontrollers with Arduinos and ESPs, and now programming Controllers on a professional level, the DIY embedded system community is filled with lack of skills: poor code because no real programming knowledge, lack of understanding of what is actually going on under the hood, ... . For example, one thing i noticed in professionally, is that i had to always master the controllers' documentations, i had to work on. This lead to the fact that most issues that you mentioned in the video simply can't happen (like polling the digitalread and delaying). I therefore really appreciate deep videos like yours, that aren't simply about repeating examples found online, but analyse and go behind the curtains.

at smt32 controllers existing interrupt priorities(interrupt in interrupts), maybe that helps with counting edges, when the EXTI is the most highest.

@TheEmbeddedHobbyist 4 роки тому
If your running an RTOS then there will always be issues with when you get to see the interrupt. so i can see why the latency is changing, it depends where you interrupt arrives in the the background processes. Not sure if the ESP32 RTOS has variable time slots or fixed time slots so there could be issues there. In the embedded world there is a lot of effort to get an RTOS working correctly. Spent many a happy week on embedded RTOS courses, just to decide that if you don't need all that an RTOS offers then it best not to use one. Also interrupts are a pain for proving the code is safe, as how do you check all the possible places in your main code where it can get interrupted, don't get issues when interrupted at the point. Nice thought provoking video as usual, thanks
@movax20h 4 роки тому
You can process interrupts at higher priority (i.e. level 5, just before NMI level). By default ISR will be lowest priority (level 1), so it will be preempted and/or delayed by other routines like a task scheduler. It is possible to have stable latency and minimal jitter using FreeRTOS.
