WIU and falling edge triggered interrupts

This is my first post so I'm hoping someone can help or point me in the right direction!

I have a Hitex ARM STR912 Starter Kit and IAR compiler.

The starter kit has 5 push button switches (which are high when released and low when pressed) which I've configured to generate a VIC1.9 (WIU all) interrupt. The interrupts are configured for falling edge.

In the interrupt service routine for the WIU I've added a simple count++ statement.

The problem I get is this:-

When I press a button, I get an interrupt as expected and 'count' increments. When I release the button I also get an interrupt and 'count' is incremented a second time.

We've scoped the switch input and it looks pretty clean when released.

Whats interesting is if I set the interrupt trigger to rising edge, pushing and releasing the button only generates the one interrupt and it behaves as expected.

Anyone got any thoughts?

Thanks mirou

I'm using the VIC1.9 (WIU all) as the interrupt source. Will have to do a bit more investigation.

Hello GoSquirrels,

I've tested a code as you described it and I didn't face any problem with WIU interrupt. I work with IAR compiler on the STR9 Eval-Board. You find attached the IAR project.

Are you using another interrupt with WIU interrupt?

With best regards,
