A Deep Dive into ARM Architecture: Understanding Cortex-M Exception Handling Mechanism

A Deep Dive into ARM Architecture: Understanding Cortex-M Exception Handling Mechanism

In embedded development, handling asynchronous events is an unavoidable challenge. For instance, reading sensor data from an accelerometer to calculate steps, or triggering RTOS context switches via timers, all rely on the support of exception handling mechanisms. Today, we will discuss the exception handling model of ARM Cortex-M. The Core of Exception Handling In the … Read more

Compression of Interrupt Signals in MCUs – Secondary Interrupt Lookup

Compression of Interrupt Signals in MCUs - Secondary Interrupt Lookup

In ARM-based MCU subsystems, there are only 240 peripheral interrupts available. Therefore, for a large number of interrupts, a secondary lookup is necessary. The cost of this approach is that it cannot achieve timely system responses, as it requires time to read the status registers.This article introduces the method of compressing interrupt signals and the … Read more
