Re: int 0 problem

2009-03-30 by stevech11

I hope I'm mistaken, but I recall that the older mega's lacked the "pin change" interrupt capability. This has a register where you enable interrupts for a change in state on a given pin.
Look at the PCICR register explanation for the mega168. I don't think the mega16 has that.
