Interruptions aren’t just a staple of our daily lives. They’re also crucial for making computer systems work as well as they do, as they allow for a system to immediately respond to an event. While on ...
Interrupts are a major feature of most embedded microcontrollers and effective real time response to interrupts is vital in low power systems that often rely on a ‘run fast then stop’ approach to ...
CAMBRIDGE, UK -- May 12, 2008-- ARM today announced the immediate availability of the ARM PrimeCell® Generic Interrupt Controller (PL390). The Generic Interrupt Controller (GIC) is a high-performance, ...
As Arm-based infrastructure continues to scale across markets, demands on system components increase. This can mean more interrupts, or signals from hardware/software to a processor to pause a task ...
A technical paper titled “CV32RT: Enabling Fast Interrupt and Context Switching for RISC-V Microcontrollers” was published by researchers at ETH Zurich and University of Bologna. “Processors using the ...
The proper use of an embedded MCU's low-power/sleep modes is critical to a design's success. In today's world of battery-operated devices, the proper use of the low-power/sleep modes provided in most ...
About 8.3 billion microprocessors were produced worldwide in 2009. However, microprocessors for information processing such as personal computers (PC) is about 0.15 billion (which is only 2% of the ...
Whenever a program error or interrupt occurs, IML automatically issues a pause, which places the module in a paused state. At this time, any statements pushed to the ...
