GPIO Button Interrupt via HAL

Lab Objective:

In this lab, participants will configure the Infineon PSoC 6 microcontroller to detect button presses using GPIO interrupts via the Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL). Rather than continuously polling the button's state, the microcontroller will be set up to respond immediately upon a button press through an interrupt mechanism. This hands-on experience aims to educate participants on the efficient use of hardware interrupts, showcasing how HAL can facilitate real-time responsiveness and optimize system performance by minimizing unnecessary CPU cycles.

Coding

• Coding: Open the main.c file and add the following code to the main(void) function.

main.c

#include "cy_pdl.h"
#include "cyhal.h"
#include "cybsp.h"
#include "cy_retarget_io.h"

#define GPIO_INTERRUPT_PRIORITY (7u)

//Interrupt handler
static void button_isr(void *handler_arg, cyhal_gpio_event_t event)
{
	cyhal_gpio_toggle(CYBSP_USER_LED);
}

// GPIO callback initialization structure
cyhal_gpio_callback_data_t cb_data =
{
	.callback     = button_isr,
	.callback_arg = NULL
};

int main(void)
{
    cy_rslt_t result;

    /* Initialize the device and board peripherals */
    result = cybsp_init() ;
    /*BSP init failed. Stop program execution */
    if (result != CY_RSLT_SUCCESS)
    {
        CY_ASSERT(0);
    }

    /* Initialize the User LED */
    result = cyhal_gpio_init(CYBSP_USER_LED, CYHAL_GPIO_DIR_OUTPUT, CYHAL_GPIO_DRIVE_STRONG, CYBSP_LED_STATE_OFF);
	/* GPIO init failed. Stop program execution */
	if (result != CY_RSLT_SUCCESS)
	{
		CY_ASSERT(0);
	}

	/* Initialize the user button */
	result = cyhal_gpio_init(CYBSP_USER_BTN, CYHAL_GPIO_DIR_INPUT, CYHAL_GPIO_DRIVE_PULLUP, CYBSP_BTN_OFF);
	/* GPIO init failed. Stop program execution */
	if (result != CY_RSLT_SUCCESS)
	{
		CY_ASSERT(0);
	}

	/* Configure GPIO interrupt */
	cyhal_gpio_register_callback(CYBSP_USER_BTN, &cb_data);
	cyhal_gpio_enable_event(CYBSP_USER_BTN, CYHAL_GPIO_IRQ_FALL, GPIO_INTERRUPT_PRIORITY, true);


	/* Enable global interrupts */
    __enable_irq();


    for (;;)
    {
    	/* Enter deep sleep mode */
		cyhal_syspm_deepsleep();


    }
}

Build the Application

Launching the Application

Note: Before launching the program to the board, make sure that you have already connected the board to the computer through a USB cable.

set up USB cable

Result

Press Button 1st time to Turn ON LED (toggle LED), Press Button 2nd time to Turn OFF LED

🎉 Congratulations! You can now complete Lab105

Workshop:

Exercise 1: Change From USER LED to RGB Green/Red/Blue

Exercise 2: Add Loop LED to the Loop function

	//cyhal_syspm_deepsleep();
    	cyhal_gpio_write(CYBSP_LED_RGB_BLUE, CYBSP_LED_STATE_ON);
    	cyhal_system_delay_ms(500);

    	cyhal_gpio_write(CYBSP_LED_RGB_BLUE, CYBSP_LED_STATE_OFF);
    	cyhal_system_delay_ms(500);
