Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Design a small program to handle overlineINT0 to turn on an LED every time a button connected to P3.2 is pressed. Provide the code and explain how the interrupt works.

💡 Hint: Focus on defining the ISR and configuring the control registers.

Challenge 2 Hard

Explain how you would handle scenarios where both external interrupts are triggered at the same time. Include considerations for priority management.

💡 Hint: Think about the implications of having two events occur simultaneously.
