Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

If a microcontroller is sending data at a baud rate of 115200 bps, how long will it take to transmit a complete frame consisting of 1 start bit, 8 data bits, and 1 stop bit?

💡 Hint: Calculate the total number of bits first.

Challenge 2 Hard

Design a UART communication protocol involving start bits, stop bits, and parity. Document your findings and discuss potential challenges.

💡 Hint: Consider the scenario of using different baud rates.
