Why do we need this megaAVR_TimerInterrupt library

Features

This library enables you to use Interrupt from Hardware Timers on an ATmega4809-based boards, such as Arduino megaAVR : UNO WiFi Rev2, AVR_NANO_EVERY, etc.

As Hardware Timers are rare, and very precious assets of any board, this library now enables you to use up to 16 ISR-based Timers, while consuming only 1 Hardware Timer. Timers' interval is very long (ulong millisecs).

Now with these new 16 ISR-based timers, the maximum interval is practically unlimited (limited only by unsigned long milliseconds) while the accuracy is nearly perfect compared to software timers.

The most important feature is they're ISR-based timers. Therefore, their executions are not blocked by bad-behaving functions / tasks. This important feature is absolutely necessary for mission-critical tasks.

The ISR_Timer_Complex example will demonstrate the nearly perfect accuracy compared to software timers by printing the actual elapsed millisecs of each type of timers.

Being ISR-based timers, their executions are not blocked by bad-behaving functions / tasks, such as connecting to WiFi, Internet and Blynk services. You can also have many (up to 16) timers to use.

This non-being-blocked important feature is absolutely necessary for mission-critical tasks.

You'll see blynkTimer Software is blocked while system is connecting to WiFi / Internet / Blynk, as well as by blocking task in loop(), using delay() function as an example. The elapsed time then is very unaccurate

Why using ISR-based Hardware Timer Interrupt is better

Imagine you have a system with a mission-critical function, measuring water level and control the sump pump or doing something much more important. You normally use a software timer to poll, or even place the function in loop(). But what if another function is blocking the loop() or setup().

So your function might not be executed, and the result would be disastrous.

You'd prefer to have your function called, no matter what happening with other functions (busy loop, bug, etc.).

The correct choice is to use a Hardware Timer with Interrupt to call your function.

These hardware timers, using interrupt, still work even if other functions are blocking. Moreover, they are much more precise (certainly depending on clock frequency accuracy) than other software timers using millis() or micros(). That's necessary if you need to measure some data requiring better accuracy.

Functions using normal software timers, relying on loop() and calling millis(), won't work if the loop() or setup() is blocked by certain operation. For example, certain function is blocking while it's connecting to WiFi or some services.

The catch is your function is now part of an ISR (Interrupt Service Routine), and must be lean / mean, and follow certain rules. More to read on:

HOWTO Attach Interrupt

Important Notes about ISR

Inside the attached function, delay() won’t work and the value returned by millis() will not increment. Serial data received while in the function may be lost. You should declare as volatile any variables that you modify within the attached function.
Typically global variables are used to pass data between an ISR and the main program. To make sure variables shared between an ISR and the main program are updated correctly, declare them as volatile.

Currently supported Boards

Arduino UNO WiFi Rev2, AVR_NANO_EVERY, etc.
ATmega4809-based boards.

Prerequisites

Arduino IDE 1.8.19+ for Arduino.
Arduino megaAVR core 1.8.7+ for Arduino megaAVR boards. Use Arduino Board Manager to install.
MegaCoreX megaAVR core 1.1.0+ for Arduino megaAVR boards. . Follow How to install.
To use with certain example
- SimpleTimer library for ISR_Timers_Array_Simple and ISR_16_Timers_Array_Complex examples.

Installation

Use Arduino Library Manager

The best and easiest way is to use Arduino Library Manager. Search for megaAVR_TimerInterrupt, then select / install the latest version. You can also use this link for more detailed instructions.

Manual Install

Another way to install is to:

Navigate to megaAVR_TimerInterrupt page.
Download the latest release megaAVR_TimerInterrupt-main.zip.
Extract the zip file to megaAVR_TimerInterrupt-main directory
Copy whole megaAVR_TimerInterrupt-main folder to Arduino libraries' directory such as ~/Arduino/libraries/.

VS Code & PlatformIO:

Install VS Code
Install PlatformIO
Install megaAVR_TimerInterrupt library by using Library Manager. Search for megaAVR_TimerInterrupt in Platform.io Author's Libraries
Use included platformio.ini file from examples to ensure that all dependent libraries will installed automatically. Please visit documentation for the other options and examples at Project Configuration File

HOWTO Fix `Multiple Definitions` Linker Error

The current library implementation, using xyz-Impl.h instead of standard xyz.cpp, possibly creates certain Multiple Definitions Linker error in certain use cases.

You can include these .hpp files

// Can be included as many times as necessary, without `Multiple Definitions` Linker Error
#include "megaAVR_TimerInterrupt.hpp"   //https://github.com/khoih-prog/megaAVR_TimerInterrupt

// Can be included as many times as necessary, without `Multiple Definitions` Linker Error
#include "megaAVR_ISR_Timer.hpp"        //https://github.com/khoih-prog/megaAVR_TimerInterrupt

in many files. But be sure to use the following .h files in just 1 .h, .cpp or .ino file, which must not be included in any other file, to avoid Multiple Definitions Linker Error

// To be included only in main(), .ino with setup() to avoid `Multiple Definitions` Linker Error
#include "megaAVR_TimerInterrupt.h"     //https://github.com/khoih-prog/megaAVR_TimerInterrupt

// To be included only in main(), .ino with setup() to avoid `Multiple Definitions` Linker Error
#include "megaAVR_ISR_Timer.h"          //https://github.com/khoih-prog/megaAVR_TimerInterrupt

Check the new multiFileProject example for a HOWTO demo.

2. Timer TCB0-TCB3

TCB0-TCB3 are 16-bit timers.

Usage

Before using any Timer, you have to make sure the Timer has not been used by any other purpose.

1. Using only Hardware Timer directly

1.1 Init Hardware Timer

// Select USING_16MHZ     == true for  16MHz to Timer TCBx => shorter timer, but better accuracy
// Select USING_8MHZ      == true for   8MHz to Timer TCBx => shorter timer, but better accuracy
// Select USING_250KHZ    == true for 250KHz to Timer TCBx => shorter timer, but better accuracy
// Not select for default 250KHz to Timer TCBx => longer timer,  but worse accuracy
#define USING_16MHZ     true
#define USING_8MHZ      false
#define USING_250KHZ    false

// Select the timers you're using, here ITimer1
#define USE_TIMER_0     false
#define USE_TIMER_1     true
#define USE_TIMER_2     false
#define USE_TIMER_3     false

// Init timer ITimer1
ITimer1.init();

1.2 Set Hardware Timer Interval and attach Timer Interrupt Handler function

Use one of these functions with interval in unsigned long milliseconds

// interval (in ms) and duration (in milliseconds). Duration = 0 or not specified => run indefinitely
template<typename TArg> bool setInterval(unsigned long interval, void (*callback)(TArg), TArg params, unsigned long duration = 0);

// interval (in ms) and duration (in milliseconds). Duration = 0 or not specified => run indefinitely
bool setInterval(unsigned long interval, timer_callback callback, unsigned long duration = 0);

// Interval (in ms) and duration (in milliseconds). Duration = 0 or not specified => run indefinitely
template<typename TArg> bool attachInterruptInterval(unsigned long interval, void (*callback)(TArg), TArg params, unsigned long duration = 0);

// Interval (in ms) and duration (in milliseconds). Duration = 0 or not specified => run indefinitely
bool attachInterruptInterval(unsigned long interval, timer_callback callback, unsigned long duration = 0)

as follows

void TimerHandler1()
{
  // Doing something here inside ISR
}

#define TIMER1_INTERVAL_MS        50L

void setup()
{
  ....
  
  // Interval in unsigned long millisecs
  if (ITimer1.attachInterruptInterval(TIMER1_INTERVAL_MS, TimerHandler1))
    Serial.println("Starting  ITimer1 OK, millis() = " + String(millis()));
  else
    Serial.println("Can't set ITimer1. Select another freq. or timer");
}

1.3 Set Hardware Timer Frequency and attach Timer Interrupt Handler function

Use one of these functions with frequency in float Hz

// frequency (in hertz) and duration (in milliseconds). Duration = 0 or not specified => run indefinitely
bool setFrequency(float frequency, timer_callback_p callback, /* void* */ uint32_t params, unsigned long duration = 0);

// frequency (in hertz) and duration (in milliseconds). Duration = 0 or not specified => run indefinitely
bool setFrequency(float frequency, timer_callback callback, unsigned long duration = 0);

// frequency (in hertz) and duration (in milliseconds). Duration = 0 or not specified => run indefinitely
template<typename TArg> bool attachInterrupt(float frequency, void (*callback)(TArg), TArg params, unsigned long duration = 0);

// frequency (in hertz) and duration (in milliseconds). Duration = 0 or not specified => run indefinitely
bool attachInterrupt(float frequency, timer_callback callback, unsigned long duration = 0);

as follows

void TimerHandler1()
{
  // Doing something here inside ISR
}

#define TIMER1_FREQ_HZ        5555.555

void setup()
{
  ....
  
  // Frequency in float Hz
  if (ITimer1.attachInterrupt(TIMER1_FREQ_HZ, TimerHandler1))
    Serial.println("Starting  ITimer1 OK, millis() = " + String(millis()));
  else
    Serial.println("Can't set ITimer1. Select another freq. or timer");
}

2. Using 16 ISR_based Timers from 1 Hardware Timer

2.1 Important Note

The 16 ISR_based Timers, designed for long timer intervals, only support using unsigned long millisec intervals. If you have to use much higher frequency or sub-millisecond interval, you have to use the Hardware Timers directly as in 1.3 Set Hardware Timer Frequency and attach Timer Interrupt Handler function

2.2 Init Hardware Timer and ISR-based Timer

// Select USING_16MHZ     == true for  16MHz to Timer TCBx => shorter timer, but better accuracy
// Select USING_8MHZ      == true for   8MHz to Timer TCBx => shorter timer, but better accuracy
// Select USING_250KHZ    == true for 250KHz to Timer TCBx => shorter timer, but better accuracy
// Not select for default 250KHz to Timer TCBx => longer timer,  but worse accuracy
#define USING_16MHZ     true
#define USING_8MHZ      false
#define USING_250KHZ    false

#define USE_TIMER_0     false
#define USE_TIMER_1     true
#define USE_TIMER_2     false
#define USE_TIMER_3     false

// Init ISR_Timer
// Each ISR_Timer can service 16 different ISR-based timers
ISR_Timer ISR_Timer1;

2.3 Set Hardware Timer Interval and attach Timer Interrupt Handler functions

void TimerHandler()
{
  ISR_Timer1.run();
}

#define HW_TIMER_INTERVAL_MS          50L

#define TIMER_INTERVAL_2S             2000L
#define TIMER_INTERVAL_5S             5000L
#define TIMER_INTERVAL_11S            11000L
#define TIMER_INTERVAL_101S           101000L

// In AVR, avoid doing something fancy in ISR, for example complex Serial.print with String() argument
// The pure simple Serial.prints here are just for demonstration and testing. Must be eliminate in working environment
// Or you can get this run-time error / crash
void doingSomething2s()
{
  // Doing something here inside ISR every 2 seconds
}
  
void doingSomething5s()
{
  // Doing something here inside ISR every 5 seconds
}

void doingSomething11s()
{
  // Doing something here inside ISR  every 11 seconds
}

void doingSomething101s()
{
  // Doing something here inside ISR every 101 seconds
}

void setup()
{
  ....
  
  // Interval in millisecs
  if (ITimer.attachInterruptInterval(HW_TIMER_INTERVAL_MS, TimerHandler))
  {
    lastMillis = millis();
    Serial.println("Starting ITimer OK, millis() = " + String(lastMillis));
  }
  else
    Serial.println("Can't set ITimer correctly. Select another freq. or interval");

  // Just to demonstrate, don't use too many ISR Timers if not absolutely necessary
  // You can use up to 16 timer for each ISR_Timer
  ISR_Timer1.setInterval(TIMER_INTERVAL_2S, doingSomething2s);
  ISR_Timer1.setInterval(TIMER_INTERVAL_5S, doingSomething5s);
  ISR_Timer1.setInterval(TIMER_INTERVAL_11S, doingSomething11s);
  ISR_Timer1.setInterval(TIMER_INTERVAL_101S, doingSomething101s);
}

Debug Terminal Output Samples

1. ISR_16_Timers_Array_Complex on Arduino megaAVR Nano Every

The following is the sample terminal output when running example ISR_16_Timers_Array_Complex on Arduino megaAVR Nano Every to demonstrate the accuracy of ISR Hardware Timer, especially when system is very busy. The ISR timer is programmed for 2s, is activated exactly after 2.000s !!!

While software timer, **programmed for 2s, is activated after more than 10.000s in loop().

Debug

Debug is enabled by default on Serial.

You can also change the debugging level from 0 to 3

// These define's must be placed at the beginning before #include "megaAVR_TimerInterrupt.h"
// _TIMERINTERRUPT_LOGLEVEL_ from 0 to 4
// Don't define _TIMERINTERRUPT_LOGLEVEL_ > 0. Only for special ISR debugging only. Can hang the system.
#define TIMER_INTERRUPT_DEBUG         0
#define _TIMERINTERRUPT_LOGLEVEL_     0

Troubleshooting

If you get compilation errors, more often than not, you may need to install a newer version of the core for Arduino boards.

Sometimes, the library will only work if you update the board core to the latest version because I am using newly added functions.

Issues

Submit issues to: megaAVR_TimerInterrupt issues

TO DO

Search for bug and improvement.

DONE

Longer Interval for timers.
Reduce code size if use less timers. Eliminate compiler warnings.
