I am planning to implement digital control on a gear tester, using a PC, XT, or AT. I want to sample using interrupt generation. To implement the interrupt, I will have to program the timer to output pulses separated by a period equal to the desired sampling rate, send the pulses to the controller, which will interrupt the CPU at every pulse to perform my sampling subroutine. I have been told that the best way to do this would be to program in C. The problem is that I have never done interrupt generation, and I have never used C. I've figured that this problem has already been solved by a EE with an interest in controls, or someone with a similar background. If you fit this bill, or know someone who does, I would greatly appreciate a couple of pointers from you or them.
