Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

How would implementing vectored interrupts affect the performance of a real-time application that previously relied on non-vectored interrupts? Discuss in terms of speed and task management.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how critical time-sensitive tasks need instantaneous access.

Question 2

Design a simple system that uses vectored interrupts. Describe how you would structure the interrupt vector table and handle multiple interrupt sources within it.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider how organized a system needs to be to handle many inputs smoothly.
