Issue:

I'm having an impossible time debugging why one of my interrupts isn't working. I'm trying to setup a hardware interrupt on PA3, but as soon as I initialize it, the interrupt triggers and then it never triggers again.

Hardware:

The pin is pulled up (10k) externally and can be shorted to GND via a push button. If I probe the pin, I can see it toggle as I press the button. Further, if I poll the pin using a GPIO_ReadInputDataBit it is toggling correctly as I press the button. All my other interrupts that are configured by the same routine work fine.

Software:

I'm including the code below, but I'm mostly hoping someone can help explain how to debug the interrupt handler. I don't know much about it beyond configuring it which had been working fine until this hiccup. (SWA_Button is the one that's not working, while all the others are fine). Am I missing something really obvious?

*** UPDATE:

I just noticed that it seems PB3 is what is triggering that interrupt. How is the interrupt handler supposed to differentiate between an interrupt on PB3 and PA3?

I've found the issue. It turns out it is not possible to trigger off the same pin on multiple GPIO ports. I was overwriting my PA3 interrupt with a PB3 one.

    \$\begingroup\$ Thanks for posting your follow-up! You can have up to 16 external interrupts (EXTI0 - EXTI15), but to use all of them you must choose your interrupt pins so that the pin numbers are different: That is, you can have different interrupts triggered by PA1, PA2, and PB3. But you cannot have different interrupts triggered by PA1, PB1, and/or PC1. \$\endgroup\$

  • \$\begingroup\$ Looks more like INTxN must be triggered by PyN \$\endgroup\$ Jan 9, 2015 at 19:38
  • \$\begingroup\$ Yeah, that's a more concise way of stating it :) \$\endgroup\$
