+
+noInterrupts()
+==============
+
+Description
+-----------
+
+Disables interrupts. Interrupts allow certain important tasks to
+happen in the background and are enabled by default. Some functions
+will not work while interrupts are disabled, and incoming
+communication may be ignored. Interrupts can slightly disrupt the
+timing of code, however, and may be disabled for particularly critical
+sections of code.
+

+Example
+-------
+
+::
+
+ void setup() {}
+
+ void loop() {
+ noInterrupts();
+ // critical, time-sensitive code here
+ interrupts();
+ // other code here
+ }
