Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Given a UART system operates at a baud rate of 115200 with a system clock of 8 MHz, how would you calculate the maximum data rate without losing information?

💡 Hint: Integration of baud rate to system clock is crucial.

Challenge 2 Hard

In an embedded system experiencing frequent overrun errors, design a strategy considering baud rate, buffer size, and interrupt handling to improve performance.

💡 Hint: Think holistically about system integration.
