Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Write a C code snippet for the 8051 to transmit a message 'Learning is fun!' using UART. Ensure proper initialization and handling.

💡 Hint: Focus on the UART initialization and sending mechanism.

Challenge 2 Hard

Design an ISR for both timer and external interrupts that toggles an LED and increments a counter, ensuring it doesn’t interfere with each other's execution.

💡 Hint: Consider how the ISR architecture allows simultaneous response to multiple events.
