Using Interrupts with Arduino


https://www.electronics-lab.com/using-interrupts-arduino/

We can say that an Interrupt is an automatic transfer of software execution in response to a hardware event that is asynchronous with the current software execution. As it’s name says, interrupts, “interrupt” the normal program flow to perform an action (run another code block, function, etc.) and return back to the normal program flow […]
