# Events

An event refers to any significant occurrence or state change within the chip that triggers a predefined response or action. These events, generated by hardware or software, enable synchronization, control, and error handling.

Embedd currently supports 3 types of events:

* GPIO: triggered by interrupts (e.g., Timer Overflow, GPIO Pin Change, ADC Conversion Complete)
* Timer: triggered at specific time intervals
* Msg: triggered by messages

For each event, the model contains the following information:

| Section Name                | Description                                                 |
| :-------------------------- | :---------------------------------------------------------- |
| Name                        | Name of event                                               |
| Type                        | Defines type of trigger: GPIO/Timer/Msg                     |
| Description                 | Description of the event based on the datasheet             |
| Status register (GPIO only) | Defines register associated to the specific interrupt event |
| Pin (GPIO only)             | Defines pin associated to the specific interrupt event      |
| Interval (Timer only)       | Defines period in ms                                        |
| Length (Msg only)           | Defines length of the message                               |
