Why do we need this ESP8266_ISR_Servo library

Features

Imagine you have a system with a mission-critical function controlling a robot arm or doing something much more important. You normally use a software timer to poll, or even place the function in loop(). But what if another function is blocking the loop() or setup().

So your function might not be executed, and the result would be disastrous.

You'd prefer to have your function called, no matter what happening with other functions (busy loop, bug, etc.).

The correct choice is to use a Hardware Timer with Interrupt to call your function.

These hardware timers, using interrupt, still work even if other functions are blocking. Moreover, they are much more precise (certainly depending on clock frequency accuracy) than other software timers using millis() or micros(). That's necessary if you need to measure some data requiring better accuracy.

Functions using normal software timers, relying on loop() and calling millis(), won't work if the loop() or setup() is blocked by certain operation. For example, certain function is blocking while it's connecting to WiFi or some services.

This library enables you to use 1 Hardware Timer on an ESP8266-based board to control up to 16 independent servo motors.

Important Notes about using ISR

Inside the attached function, delay() won’t work and the value returned by millis() will not increment. Serial data received while in the function may be lost. You should declare as volatile any variables that you modify within the attached function.
Typically global variables are used to pass data between an ISR and the main program. To make sure variables shared between an ISR and the main program are updated correctly, declare them as volatile.
Avoid using Serial.print()-related functions inside ISR. Just for temporary debug purpose, but even this also can crash the system any time. Beware.
Your functions are now part of ISR (Interrupt Service Routine), and must be lean / mean, and follow certain rules. More to read on:

Currently supported Boards

This ESP8266_ISR_Servo library currently supports these following boards:

ESP8266-based boards.

Prerequisites

Arduino IDE 1.8.19+ for Arduino.
ESP8266 Core 3.0.2+ for ESP8266-based boards. . To use ESP8266 core 2.7.1+ for LittleFS.

Installation

Use Arduino Library Manager

The best and easiest way is to use Arduino Library Manager. Search for ESP8266_ISR_Servo, then select / install the latest version. You can also use this link for more detailed instructions.

Manual Install

Another way to install is to:

Navigate to ESP8266_ISR_Servo page.
Download the latest release ESP8266_ISR_Servo-master.zip.
Extract the zip file to ESP8266_ISR_Servo-master directory
Copy whole ESP8266_ISR_Servo-master folder to Arduino libraries' directory such as ~/Arduino/libraries/.

VS Code & PlatformIO

Install VS Code
Install PlatformIO
Install ESP8266_ISR_Servo library by using Library Manager. Search for ESP8266_ISR_Servo in Platform.io Author's Libraries
Use included platformio.ini file from examples to ensure that all dependent libraries will installed automatically. Please visit documentation for the other options and examples at Project Configuration File

HOWTO Fix `Multiple Definitions` Linker Error

The current library implementation, using xyz-Impl.h instead of standard xyz.cpp, possibly creates certain Multiple Definitions Linker error in certain use cases.

You can include this .hpp file

// Can be included as many times as necessary, without `Multiple Definitions` Linker Error
#include "ESP8266_ISR_Servo.hpp"     //https://github.com/khoih-prog/ESP8266_ISR_Servo

in many files. But be sure to use the following .h file in just 1 .h, .cpp or .ino file, which must not be included in any other file, to avoid Multiple Definitions Linker Error

// To be included only in main(), .ino with setup() to avoid `Multiple Definitions` Linker Error
#include "ESP8266_ISR_Servo.h"           //https://github.com/khoih-prog/ESP8266_ISR_Servo

Check the new multiFileProject example for a HOWTO demo.

Have a look at the discussion in Different behaviour using the src_cpp or src_h lib #80

More useful Information

ESP8266 Hardware Timers

The ESP8266 timers are badly designed, using only 23-bit counter along with maximum 256 prescaler. They're only better than UNO / Mega.

The ESP8266 has two hardware timers, but timer0 has been used for WiFi and it's not advisable to use. Only timer1 is available.

The timer1's 23-bit counter can terribly count only up to 8,388,607. So the timer1 maximum interval is very short.

Using 256 prescaler, maximum timer1 interval is only 26.843542 seconds !!!

The timer1 counters can be configured to support automatic reload.

New functions

// returns last position in degrees if success, or -1 on wrong servoIndex
int getPosition(unsigned servoIndex);

// returns pulseWidth in microsecs (within min/max range) if success, or 0 on wrong servoIndex
unsigned int getPulseWidth(unsigned servoIndex);

What special in this ESP8266_ISR_Servo library

Now these new 16 ISR-based Servo controllers just use one ESP8266 Hardware Timer. The number 16 is just arbitrarily chosen, and depending on application, you can increase that number to 32, 48, etc. without problem.

The accuracy is nearly perfect compared to software timers. The most important feature is they're ISR-based timers

Therefore, their executions are not blocked by bad-behaving functions / tasks. This important feature is absolutely necessary for mission-critical tasks.

The MultipleServos example, which controls 6 servos independently, will demonstrate the nearly perfect accuracy. Being ISR-based servo controllers, their executions are not blocked by bad-behaving functions / tasks, such as connecting to WiFi, Internet and Blynk services.

This non-being-blocked important feature is absolutely necessary for mission-critical tasks. You'll see blynkTimer Software is blocked while system is connecting to WiFi / Internet / Blynk, as well as by blocking task in loop(), using delay() function as an example. The elapsed time then is very unaccurate

Debug

Debug is enabled by default on Serial.

You can also change the debugging level from 0 to 2. Be careful and using level 2 only for temporary debug purpose only.

#define TIMER_INTERRUPT_DEBUG       1
#define ISR_SERVO_DEBUG             1

Troubleshooting

If you get compilation errors, more often than not, you may need to install a newer version of the core for Arduino boards.

Sometimes, the library will only work if you update the board core to the latest version because I am using newly added functions.

Issues

Submit issues to: ESP8266_ISR_Servo issues

TO DO

Search for bug and improvement.

DONE

Similar features for Arduino (UNO, Mega, etc...) and ESP32
Add functions getPosition() and getPulseWidth()
Optimize the code
Add more complicated examples
Update to match new ESP8266 core v3.0.0
Convert to h-only style.
Add example multiFileProject to demo for multiple-file project
Optimize code by using passing by reference instead of by value
Add astyle using allman style. Restyle the library

Contributions and Thanks

Thanks to raphweb for the PR Fixed count >= min comparison for servo enable. to fix bug and leading to the new releases v1.1.0
