Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Modify the LED toggling program to include a second LED on P1.1 that blinks at half the frequency of the first LED.

💡 Hint: Think about how to adjust the delay for the second LED based on the first's timing.

Challenge 2 Hard

Create a program that counts how many times an external button is pressed using interrupts and displays the count by turning on LEDs in P2.0 to P2.3.

💡 Hint: Recall how ISRs can help manage tasks when events occur outside the normal execution path.
