[AVR] Two motor encoder code for avr

[ANS HAFEEZ]

SALAM TO ALL;
I m using this motor

https://www.pololu.com/product/1446

and want to interface TWO motors encoders with ATMEGA32 and confuse about writting code DO i need INT0 and INT1 pin of atmega32 and which encoder output i have to use OUTPUT A or OUTPUT B of motor encoder

 

[horace1]

if you wish to sense direction you need both A and B signals

No i just want to take 90 degree turn using encoder

should i use intrupts or general purpose inputs to check both motors??

 

[horace1]

I would use interrupts which sense change of level of the signal

Do you think TO use both intrupts simultaneously can cause a error in reading the Two encoders???

so long as you keep the interrupt service routines short (e.g. increment a counter and acknowledge the interrupt) I don't see why there should be problems

 

[ANS HAFEEZ]

I m getting problem in simulation only INT0 works but if there is no intrupt on pin INT0 then INT1 works

I have not used AVRs for some time but it sounds as though you may be getting continuous INT0 interrupts
what are you interrupting on? edge, level ?
perhaps you are not clearling the INT0 interrupt in the interrupt service routine ?

how good is the AVR simulator at handeling interrupts?
I always use real hardware for testing such things

 

[ANS HAFEEZ]

The problem is continous intruppts on pin INT0 from motor encoder
i think i should use GIO pin to count the encoders reading

I believe it's a coding problem. Both interrupts should be programmed for "Any logical change on INTx generates an interrupt request", or alternatively rising or falling edge only.

You should have an idea about the expectable encoder pulse rate.

yup i check the motor encoder output from oscilloscope its about 2.85Khz for each encoder
