Does MicroStamp11 support interrupts?
Yes, there are 20 different interrupt sources on MicroStamp11! These are all user-enabled, so that an interrupt can be made to occur on such events as • an input pin logic-level changes • the hardware timer overflows • the hardware free-running counter matches a user-defined value • a byte has been received via the serial port There are also two interrupt input pins. IRQ and XIRQ, which can be used to signal MicroStamp11 when some external event has occurred. Additionally, any of the interrupts can be used to trigger a wake-up of MicroStamp11 from sleep mode. This is a very important advantage that MicroStamp11 has over similarly-priced stamp-sized modules.
