Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Design an embedded API structure that integrates all four function types (initialization, control, status, and interrupt handling) for a new temperature sensor.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider how each function interacts for a complete input-output cycle.

Question 2

Explain how to use the interrupt handling function in a system that receives live updates from a sensor, ensuring that no data is missed during processing.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think of how interrupts help maintain responsiveness while processing.
