ESP32 Interrupt jitter at 20kHz
Posted: Fri Mar 18, 2022 9:06 am
Hello everyone!
I would like your help to solve the following problem.
I'm using an ESP32 Dev Kit V1 connected as follows:
- Pin 4 (input) is connected to a 20kHz and 3.3V signal and to channel 1 of the oscilloscope; and
- Pin 2 (output) is connected to channel 2 of the oscilloscope.
My goal is to use interrupts and generate a signal on pin 2 (output) that follows the variations of the signal on pin 4 (input).
The image below illustrates two behaviors. The most frequent and the other one that happens occasionally.
In the first behavior, the latency is around 3 us, but sometimes there is a variation (jitter) and the rise of the output signal takes 15 us or even more to keep up with the input.
I would like to know how to remove this occasional behavior and keep the system stable.
The code that I'm using is below. To compile and upload I am using the latest Arduino IDE version 1.8.13.
I'm using GPIO.out_w1ts and GPIO.out_w1tc because I believe it will be faster than using digitalWrite(pin, state).
Also notice that I'm not reading the state of pin 4 (input) to be faster, because of this, sometimes the output signal gets inverted, but that's not a problem at this point.
The settings used in the Arduino IDE are illustrated in the next image.
Thanks in advance for all the help.
Thank you very much,
Jose Silva.

if (state)
GPIO.out_w1ts = 0b100;

state = !state;
}
void setup() {
pinMode(INPUT_PIN, INPUT);
attachInterrupt(digitalPinToInterrupt(INPUT_PIN), interruptFunction, CHANGE);

io_conf.mode = GPIO_MODE_OUTPUT;
io_conf.pin_bit_mask = 0b100;
gpio_config(&io_conf);
}
