Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Design a system with two interrupts: one for a button press and another for a timer overflow. How would you prioritize them, and what might the ISRs do?

💡 Hint: Consider real-time requirements for each event.

Question 2

You have a timer interrupt set to trigger at 1 second intervals. If a button press resets a counter being incremented by the timer, what issues might arise?

💡 Hint: Think about how interrupts interact with each other and shares resources.
