Question 1

What is the function of a GPIO interrupt?

  • To continuously check pin states
  • To temporarily halt current CPU operations for an event
  • To increase the power supply to the microcontroller

💡 Hint: Remember how interrupts improve responsiveness in your designs.

Question 2

True or False: Pull-up resistors are used to prevent GPIO pins from floating.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Think about the stability of the signal when the button isn't pressed.
