While most devices have built in interrupts users can call, there exists the option to specify custom interrupts within Flowcode.
Interrupts can also be used to save energy. In many battery-powered applications, the microcontroller is 'put to sleep' when inactive, and so requires little energy. An interrupt is used to 'awaken' the controller, and bring it back into operation, when needed.
Therefore custom interrupts can be used specifically to fulfill and improve, functionality, programs and applications. These interrupts allow you to tailor them into your program for specialist use or even to create a simplified interrupt to improve efficiency.
Below are a list of the methods for creating custom interrupts in Flowcode v6 for different devices:
