Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

In a microcontroller application, multiple sensors generate interrupts simultaneously. How would you manage these interrupts to ensure none are missed?

💡 Hint: Consider strategies like prioritization and efficient ISR design.

Question 2

Suppose you have a system where long ISRs are often called. What changes can you make to improve response times?

💡 Hint: Think about optimizing ISR design to reduce execution times.
