Interrupts

We use part of the excellent material from "CSE P567, Design and Implementation of Digital Systems (Winter 2010)" by Carl Ebeling, Computer Science and Engineering Program, University of Washington

• Lecture 6: lecture6_atmega328_arduino.pdf
• Lecture 7: lecture7_timers_interrupts.pdf

• ATmega328P web page
• ATmega328P Datasheet (pdf)
• ATmega328P Datasheet Summary (pdf)

From the introduction to ATmege328 (“Lecture 6”) we just need:

• AVR register file: some discussions
• AVR memory
• Interrupts
• I/O ports, pin circuitry

We don't need:

• Addressing modes
• Instructions

A very good explanation is found here:

• https://www.quora.com/What-is-the-difference-between-context-switching-and-interrupt-handling

Let us work on Arduino Timer Interrupts based on material from instructables
http://www.instructables.com/id/Arduino-Timer-Interrupts/?ALLSTEPS

Modify the code from the instructable above to generate a frequency of f = 3 kHz.
