Hello guys, I got problems with my interrupt routines. One routine is for uart whitch means if a character comes in it'll be stored in a buffer array, the other one is for simple timer ticks. ...

16 years agoHi Iftan, thank's for your reply.
My problem is very confuse. My ISR for the timer interrupt works perfect. I checked also the IPENDING register, if there is an incoming timer interrupt I can see 0x02 (for the timer interrupt flag), after that, the timer ISR enters. But my uart ISR doesn't work. I use HyperTerminal for communication. I checked the hardware with a simple polling routine. Every time I press an key the routine returns the character to HyperTerminal. Works fine but is laborious. I dont't see the changing of the IPENDING register, either. Could it be, that a hardware or software part blocks the uart interrupt request ???
