PortB Interrupt on Change Strange Problem
PostPosted: Thu Mar 31, 2016 6:28 am     Reply with quote

Here is a strange problem.

I am using PCWHD version 5.015 and PIC16f877A. Hardware is as follows:

Portb.4 and Portb.7 are connected to the output of LM324. Inputs of LM324 is connected to two switches which connects ground in close state. Inverting input of LM324 is connected to 5V while non-inverting input is pulled to 12V up by 10k resistor.

When I initialize the board without the switches connected, Portb.4 and Portb.7 are in high state then the program runs fine. But when the board is initialized with switches connected, SMS is sent twice and Portb ISR is executed at the time of sending SMS resulting in another message to be sent.

The code is as follows:

Code:
#include <16F877A.h>
#device ADC=10;
#FUSES NOWDT                    //No Watch Dog Timer
#FUSES NOBROWNOUT               //No brownout reset
#FUSES NOLVP                    //No low voltage prgming, B3(PIC16) or (PIC18) used for I/O
#use delay(crystal=20000000)

#use rs232(baud=9600,xmit=PIN_C6,rcv=PIN_C7,PARITY=N,BITS=8,STOP=1,ERRORS)

Is it the problem with firmware or hardware? Please help

With a quick look at your code ( too much really...)
my 'gut' feeling is that you're supposed to read PortB within the ISR to clear the interrupt condition. The 877 is an old PIC and that's what I've always done. That's in the datasheet/ CCS manuals/FAQ section somewhere....

also...

Your ISR for timer0 is way too 'complicated' and you do not need to clear it as the compiler does that for you.

This is one of those 'beware' ones.....

There are some PIC18's, which won't actually reset the latches on a read of port B. On these a bit access instead has to be used!.

However on the older chips (this is one), the data sheet refers to a read or write of port B being needed. Like Temtronic, I've always used a simple read as being the safest thing to do.

However I'd suspect this might well simply be switch bounce. Switches (except for some special designs like mercury wetted switches), will _always_ exhibit bounce. Single physical make actually appears electrically as a sequence of make, break, make, break etc.. As you have an op-amp buffer, add some positive feedback round the op-amp, and capacitance to this circuit, to make a hardware debounce.

Another simple 12 v to 5 v level converter is a 78L05 voltage regulator !

Not exactly a 'normal' use for the device but I've used them for decades in automotive applications.

4 regs take up less space than a 324, easy PCB traces, kinda bullet proof.

Options, think outside the box....

Thank you everyone. As stated the problem only arises when sending SMS using SIM900a, I suspected it was noisy ground issue. As the switches are normally closed which connects ground to portB, therefore I changed the wires connecting battery ground of Genset to the circuit and the problem vanishes.

I recently came across volatile type qualifier. I understand their utility and importance. Despite of not using it in my code, the code works fine. Why is that so?

CCS has no handling of 'volatile'. Volatile is for things like 16bit variables, where they may be updated by (for example) other code inside an interrupt at the same time as the 'main' code is also accessing the variable. You have to do this yourself. So (for instance), if you have a variable that you read from an interrupt, you would either disable interrupts, copy it to a local version, then re-enable the interrupts, or do an operation like:
Code:

   int16 local_variable;
   while (local_variable != interrupt_variable)
      local_variable=interrupt_variable;

This sees if the variable has changed, and if it has, copies it, and keeps on copying it till it matches.

Plus side - interrupts don't have to be disabled.

Nothing you do, uses variables larger than 8bits, so there is inherently no problem.

I'll have to check the CCS manual, but in standard C volatile merely tells the compiler not to optimize out reads/write to variables it deems unused. It doesn't have any affect on atomic access. Normal uses in other compilers are for global variables used by interrupts or variables mapped to hardware registers...basically any variable that can be modified outside the current context.

I have had other compilers like GCC, for example, do this:


Code:

uint8_t * const g_ptr = 0x000000800;  //some hardware register

void main(void){
   //stuff
   
   //GCC sometimes will optimize this next line out if *g_ptr isn't read at some point
   g_ptr->some_field = 0x02; 

}


by making the variable g_ptr defined as:
Code:

volatile uint8_t * const g_ptr = 0x000000800;  //some hardware register


GCC will not optimize out the write.

CCS isn't as aggressive as other compilers though. I don't think I have ever seen CCS optimize out a line like that. I still use the volatile keyword as good practice for any of my globals or register variables

This is a good info source on the subject:
