STM32F4 External interrupts
Each STM32F4 device has 23 external interrupt or event sources.
They are split into 2 sections.
First interrupt section is for external pins (P0 to P15) on each port,
and other section is for other events, like RTC interrupt, Ethernet interrupt, USB interrupt and so on.
GPIO as Interrupt
Interrupt lines
I will show now how to configure GPIO pin to be an interrupt and how to handle it in your code with CMSIS function.
In section one (GPIOs) we have 16 interrupt lines.
They are line0 to line15 and they also represent pin number.
This means, PA0 is connected to Line0and PA13 is connected to Line13.
You have to know that PB0 is also connected to Line0 and PC0 also and so on.
This is for all pins on board, All Px0 (where x is GPIO name) pins are connected to Line0
and let’s say all Px3 are connected to Line3 on the Interrupt channel.
All pins with same number are connected to line with same number.
They are multiplexed to one line.
IMPORTANT: You can not use two pins on one line simultaneously:
- PA0 and PB0 and PC0 and so on, are connected to Line0,
so you can use only one pin at one time to handle interrupt from there. - PA0 and PA5 are connected to different lines, they can be used at the same time.
Each line can trigger an interrupt on rising, falling or rising_falling enge on signal.
Interrupt handlers
OK, now you have selected your pin you want to use.
But you have to handle interrupt somehow.
This process is described below.
STM32F4 has 7 interrupt handlers for GPIO pins.
They are in table below:
| Irq | Handler | Description |
|---|---|---|
| EXTI0_IRQn | EXTI0_IRQHandler | Handler for pins connected to line 0 |
| EXTI1_IRQn | EXTI1_IRQHandler | Handler for pins connected to line 1 |
| EXTI2_IRQn | EXTI2_IRQHandler | Handler for pins connected to line 2 |
| EXTI3_IRQn | EXTI3_IRQHandler | Handler for pins connected to line 3 |
| EXTI4_IRQn | EXTI4_IRQHandler | Handler for pins connected to line 4 |
| EXTI9_5_IRQn | EXTI9_5_IRQHandler | Handler for pins connected to line 5 to 9 |
| EXTI15_10_IRQn | EXTI15_10_IRQHandler | Handler for pins connected to line 10 to 15 |
This table show you which IRQ you have to set for NVIC (first column)
and function names to handle your interrupts (second column).
You have probably also figured, that only lines 0 to 4 have own IRQ handler.
Yes, lines 5-9 have the same interrupt handler and this is also for lines 10 to 15.
After you set settings for EXTI, you have to add them into NVIC.
Example
In this example, we will set pin PD0 and PB12 to be a GPIO interrupts.
Code below should be well documented to understand how it works.

软件环境：MDK470a
硬件环境：STM32F4-Discovery。按键B1连接在F4芯片的PA0引脚。当按键按下时，引脚电平被拉底。
功能描述：按压按键B1时，触发外部中断。进入中断处理函数后，通过串口发送消息。
实现步骤：
1、打开PA时钟，设置PA0引脚为输入。
void EXTI_GPIO_Congig(void)
{
GPIO_InitTypeDef GPIO_InitStructure;
RCC_AHB1PeriphClockCmd(RCC_AHB1Periph_GPIOA,ENABLE);
RCC_APB2PeriphClockCmd(RCC_APB2Periph_SYSCFG,ENABLE);
GPIO_InitStructure.GPIO_Mode = GPIO_Mode_IN;
GPIO_InitStructure.GPIO_PuPd = GPIO_PuPd_NOPULL;
GPIO_InitStructure.GPIO_Pin = GPIO_PinSource0;
GPIO_InitStructure.GPIO_Speed =GPIO_Speed_100MHz;
GPIO_Init(GPIOA,&GPIO_InitStructure);
}
2、打开系统配置控制器（System configuration controller）时钟。
RCC_APB2PeriphClockCmd(RCC_APB2Periph_SYSCFG,ENABLE);
关于系统控制寄存器（SYSCFG）的功能，是F4系列新增的。功能如下：
The system configuration controller is mainly used to remap the memory accessible in the code area,
select the Ethernet PHY interface and manage the external interrupt line connection to the GPIOs.
SYSCFG主要用于映射访问CODE区域的内存、选择以太网的什么接口，管理外部中断线到GPIO的连接。
设置外部中断，还要设置SYSCFG的外部中断配置寄存器。
3、配置外部中断EXTI的工作方式.
映射到PA0，即线0，使用中断模式下降沿触发。
设置EXTI寄存器的工作方式交给了库函数。
void EXTI_Config(void)
{
EXTI_GPIO_Congig();
RCC_APB2PeriphClockCmd(RCC_APB2Periph_SYSCFG,ENABLE);
EXTI_InitStructure.EXTI_Line = EXTI_Line0;
EXTI_InitStructure.EXTI_LineCmd = ENABLE;
EXTI_InitStructure.EXTI_Mode = EXTI_Mode_Interrupt;
EXTI_InitStructure.EXTI_Trigger = EXTI_Trigger_Falling;
EXTI_Init(&EXTI_InitStructure);
}
4、编写中断处理函数，实现向串口打印信息。
固定的函数名：void EXTI0_IRQHandler(void)。
进入中断处理函数后，首先检查是否为线0的中断。如果是，则清除这个中断标志。之后就可以发送消息了。
消息发送完成之后，清除在处理外部中断期间到来的外部中断。使用EXTI_ClearITPendingBit()完成
void EXTI0_IRQHandler(void)
{
if(SET == EXTI_GetITStatus(EXTI_Line0))
{
EXTI_ClearFlag(EXTI_Line0);
printf("i am in exti irqhandler\r\n");
printf("and the extiflag is cleared\r\n");
EXTI_ClearITPendingBit(EXTI_Line0);
}
}
Example code: configure PB1 as interrupt pin
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stm32f4xx.h> uint32_t i=; void EXTI1_IRQHandler(void)
{
if(EXTI->PR & (<<))
{
i++; //increase value if interrupt happen
}
EXTI->PR=(<<); //clear interrupt flag for EXTI1
} void exticonf(void)
{
//Config PB1 as interrupt pin
NVIC_EnableIRQ(EXTI1_IRQn); // Enable IRQ for ext. signals, line EXTI1_IRQn
//NVIC_EnableIRQ(EXTI9_5_IRQn); //External Line[9:5] Interrupts
//NVIC_EnableIRQ(EXTI15_10_IRQn); //External Line[15:10] Interrupts
NVIC_SetPriority(EXTI1_IRQn, );
SYSCFG->EXTICR[] = SYSCFG_EXTICR1_EXTI1_PB; // select PB to make IRQ EXTI1
EXTI->RTSR = 0x00000002; // allow positive edge interrupt for EXTI1
EXTI->IMR = 0x00000002; // enable interrupt on EXTI1
} int main (void) {
RCC->APB2ENR |= 0x00004000; // Clock SYSCFG - system configuration controller, necessary for interrupt
exticonf();
while() { };
}
