Interactive Quizzes

Engage in quick quizzes to reinforce what you've learned and check your comprehension.

Question 1

What does a non-vectored interrupt require the CPU to do?

  • Point directly to ISR
  • Identify the source post-trigger
  • Ignore the source

💡 Hint: Consider how an ISR is used.

Question 2

Non-vectored interrupts are typically less efficient than vectored interrupts. True or False?

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Think about the implications of shared ISRs.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

You are designing a simple thermostat with multiple sensors (temperature, humidity). Explain how you would implement non-vectored interrupts to handle readings from these sensors.

💡 Hint: Think about how to monitor each sensor's status.

Question 2

Discuss the potential impact on system performance when using non-vectored interrupts in a high-frequency data logging application.

💡 Hint: Evaluate the trade-offs between speed and system simplicity.
