Why to the hell anybody want using external interrupts for extremely slowly and bouncing keys ???
Mechanical keys need always debouncing and thus a timer interrupt was many times better suited to scan and debounce a keyboard. External interrupts are suited only for really fast things, like handling ethernet controllers, mp3 decoders or so. Any human reactions (>300ms) are damned slowly from a microcontrollers view. Peter |
