Timer error

Postby Daliwan » Mon May 09, 2022 3:13 am

I am trying ESP32 with a simple timing code, in a VScode enviranment, the code is like this:
#include <Arduino.h>
//=====================================
// a timer demo
//=====================================

int interruptCounter = 0;
hw_timer_t *timer = NULL;

void TimerEvent()
{
Serial.print(interruptCounter++);
if(interruptCounter > 5)
{
interruptCounter = 1;
}
}

void setup()
{
Serial.begin(115200);

timer = timerBegin(0, 80, true);
timerAttachInterrupt(timer, &TimerEvent, true);
timerAlarmWrite(timer, 1000000, true);
timerAlarmEnable(timer);
}

void loop()
{

}

But then at PC there received an "Interrupt wdt timeout error":
Guru Meditation Error: Core 1 panic'ed (Interrupt wdt timeout on CPU1).

Interrupt routines must complete very quickly, but writing to serial is a slow process. Try setting a flag in your interrupt routine and printing from loop() when the flag changes. You should also make sure your interrupt routine stays in internal memory using:

Code: Select all

void ARDUINO_ISR_ATTR TimerEvent()
The timer documentation page has examples at the bottom.
