Time interval using C language
PostPosted: Tue Apr 20, 2010 7:38 pm     Reply with quote

Hi,
I would like help with the source code, where I need to relate this source code with the time interval. I need it so the count begins together with the timer starts. Anyhow I managed only to increase the count. How do I do it?
Code:

#include <16f628.h>
#fuses HS, NOWDT, NOLVP, NOBROWNOUT, NOPROTECT, PUT
#use delay(clock=20000000)
#use rs232(baud=9600, xmit=PIN_B2, rcv=PIN_B1)

int count = 0;

#int_ext
void isr_ext()
{   
for(count=0;count<=20;count++)
   {
    SET_TRIS_B(0b00000001);
    printf("Count Increase = %d\r\n",count);

    if(count==20)
      {
       printf("Sense \r");
      }
   }
}


void main()
{
SET_TRIS_B(0b00000001);
count = 0;
enable_interrupts(int_ext);
enable_interrupts(global);
ext_int_edge(L_TO_H);
   
while(true){
  }

}

Could you better describe what you want the code to do? What you have seems to count interrupts.

If you use the default STANDARD_IO the compiler takes care of the TRIS registers for you. You don't need to set them.

From the source code, the count increases at the rising edge.
What I want to actually do is the time starts together with the count (rising edge detected) starts. Time interval is 10sec and count is 20.
If the count reaches 20 before the time reaches 10sec, there is certain output. The problem is that I don't know how to create the time interval. I try to use the timer interrupt but I don't know how to implement it. Hope you can give me the idea.
Code:

#include <16f628.h>
#fuses HS, NOWDT, NOLVP, NOBROWNOUT, NOPROTECT, PUT
#use delay(clock=20000000)
#use rs232(baud=9600, xmit=PIN_B2, rcv=PIN_B1)

int count = 0;

#int_ext
void isr_ext()
{   
  for(count=0;count<=20;count++)
   {
    SET_TRIS_B(0b00000001);        \\port B0 is set as input
    printf("Count Increase = %d\r\n",count);

    if(count==20)      \\ condition fulfillment
      {
       printf("Sense \r");
      }
   }
}

void main()
{
SET_TRIS_B(0b00000001);     \\port B0 is set as input
count = 0;
enable_interrupts(int_ext);  \\ enable external interrupt
enable_interrupts(global);   \\ enable interrupt global
ext_int_edge(L_TO_H);   \\ interrupt at rising edge
   
while(true){
  }
}

Not tested for compilation errors but try something like this:
Code:
#include <16f628.h>
#fuses HS, NOWDT, NOLVP, NOBROWNOUT, NOPROTECT, PUT
#use delay(clock=20000000)
#use rs232(baud=9600, xmit=PIN_B2, rcv=PIN_B1, ERRORS)

#define SOME_DELAY   1000    // delay time between tests [ms]
#define TEN_SECONDS  (10 * (1000 / SOME_DELAY))

int8 count;

#int_ext
void isr_ext()
{
  count++;
}

void main()
{
  SET_TRIS_B(0b00000001);       // port B0 is set as input
  enable_interrupts(INT_EXT);   // enable external interrupt
  ext_int_edge(L_TO_H);         // interrupt at rising edge
  clear_interrupt(INT_EXT)      // Clear interrupt
  enable_interrupts(GLOBAL);    // enable interrupt global
   
  while(TRUE)
  {
    // Wait for first pulse
    count = 0;
    while(count == 0) {}

    // Wait for 20 pulses or 10 seconds to pass, whatever comes first
    while ((count < 20) && (TimePassed < TEN_SECONDS))
    {
      delay_ms(SOME_DELAY);
    }

    // Test reason for loop exit
    if(count>=20)      // condition fulfillment
    {
     printf("Sense \r");
    }

  }
}

For faster response time you can change SOME_DELAY to a smaller value.
If the external interrupt is triggered by a switch you could add a delay of 10ms inside the interrupt routine for switch debouncing.
