+
+interrupts()
+============
+
+Description
+-----------
+
+Re-enables interrupts (after they've been disabled by
+`noInterrupts <http://arduino.cc/en/Reference/NoInterrupts>`_\ ()).
+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.
+
+
+
+Parameters
+----------
+
+None
+
+
+
+Returns
+-------
+
+None
+
+
+
+Example
+-------
+
+::
+
+ void setup() {}
+
+ void loop()
+ {
+ noInterrupts();
+ // critical, time-sensitive code here
+ interrupts();
+ // other code here
+ }
