There are some techniques to reduce interrupt latency in embedded systems, such as optimizing the interrupt handler, minimizing the interrupt masking, using dedicated interrupt controllers, and ...

Interrupt latency is the time between the occurence of an interrupt, and the time the system has properly responded to that interrupt. This goes for all computers, not just embedded systems, but ...

Other variables include interrupt latency/response, the time between the actual initiation of an interrupt and the execution of the ISR code, and interrupt recovery, the time it takes to switch back ...

This article covers how to manage interrupts between the bootloader & application software in case the relocation of the IVT is not allowed. ... Interrupt Based Bootloader Design For Embedded System ...

Hardware interrupt latency typically reflects the time needed for operations, such as completing the current executing instruction in the CPU, locating the address of an interrupt handler, and saving ...

This aspect of ARM Cortex-M is quite unique among the embedded CPUs, and I will explain it in the next lesson. But for today, you need a more traditional CPU, for which I chose MSP430 [1]. Lesson 17 – ...

What is Interupt? An interrupt is a signal to the processor emitted by hardware or software indicating an event that needs immediate attention. There are two types of interrupt: Software and Hardware.

Editor's Note: Linux remains an attractive option for embedded systems developers. In fact, industry surveys such as the Embedded Market Study by UBM (EDN's parent company) consistently show interest ...

In embedded systems, handling time-critical real-time tasks is a challenge. The software may not only multi-task to improve response time, but also support events and interrupts, forcing the system to ...

The increasing performance of modern processors makes virtualization a viable solution for consolidating real-time systems into a single hardware platform. Although real-time task scheduling in a ...
