Hello!!!!!!!!!

I am using interrupts of p89v51rd2 and the signal which i am getting as an input is active high.

I have not used the NOT gate in between.

Is there any alternative to get it done?

Thanks,
paddy

I'm not familiar with this chip. Where's the problem?

this is similar to 8051.

The interrupts are active low enable and the signal which i am receiving is active high.

And i have not placed the NOT gate between received signal and interrupt pin of micro controller.

Because of that interrupt routine is not working.

Thanks,
paddy

Then why don't you insert the inverter? I don't see a way around this.
If you don't have a spare gate in your circuit, a simple 1-transistor common emitter circuit can invert the signal (see here, bottom of the page).

thank you for your suggestion.

I have used transistor to invert the signal and now it is working fine.

I am facing a problem of noise.

Even if in the absence of the signal the alarms are generating. And this happens only when there is a switching.

Please suggest how to get rid of it.

thanks,
paddy

Where and what is switching?

You may try and add a resistor from the base of the NPN transistor to GND. The value should be approx. 1*Rb. Also a small capacitor (100pF) from the base o GND can help.

The system is working on 24V DC supply which is given through power supply and 230V to the power supply is given through Mains.

So if i turn on/off any other devices which are working on mains supply, the systems starts generating alarms.

Then you should provide a better filtered power supply.
At the very least you need to filter the power supply pins of the microcontroller (and other chips) in your circuit. Typically a 100nF capacitor very close to the VCC/GND pins of each IC is a standard filter procedure.

Yes it worked!!!!

A capacitor in between base and ground.

Thank you for support!!!!!
