Question 1.
What does AHB stand for?
Show hintHide hint
Think about the bus that connects components in embedded systems.
Question 2.
What is memory-mapped I/O?
Show hintHide hint
It relates to how devices interface with the CPU.
3Question 3.
What is the primary function of the AHB bus?
- To connect memory only
- To facilitate communication between processor and peripherals
- To process instructions
Show hintHide hint
Think about its use in connecting different components.
4Question 4.
True or False: Interrupts require the CPU to constantly check the status of peripherals.
- True
- False
Show hintHide hint
Consider how urgent notifications work.
Question 5.
Design a simple embedded system that uses timers, GPIO, and interrupts. What components will you choose, and how will they interact through the AHB bus?
Show hintHide hint
Think about a system where certain events need immediate responses.
Question 6.
Analyze the implications of high latency in interrupts on user experience in consumer electronics. How would you mitigate these issues?
Show hintHide hint
Consider user-facing applications where delay could be problematic.
