Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Design a program that blinks two different LEDs at different rates on the STM32. What considerations do you have to keep in mind for GPIO configuration and timing?

💡 Hint: Consider how you would structure your delays or use timers to achieve this.

Challenge 2 Hard

If the system clock is changed to 168 MHz, how would you need to adjust the cycles in your delay function?

💡 Hint: Think about the relationship between frequency and cycle count.
