Q1Domain Verified
In the context of ARM Cortex-M microcontrollers and the "The Complete Embedded C for ARM Cortex-M Course 2026," which register is primarily responsible for holding the current program counter (PC) and is crucial for understanding function calls and interrupt handling?
Stack Pointer (SP)
Program Status Register (PSR)
General Purpose Registers (R0-R3)
Link Register (LR)
Q2Domain Verified
When developing for ARM Cortex-M with Embedded C, what is the fundamental difference between using `volatile` and `const` qualifiers for a variable declared in an interrupt service routine (ISR) that is also accessed by the main loop?
`volatile` is used for memory-mapped peripherals, while `const` is used for global variables that are initialized once.
`volatile` allows the compiler to reorder memory accesses, while `const` prevents any reordering.
`volatile` indicates that the variable's value can be modified by hardware or by an ISR, while `const` signifies that the variable's value is read-only after initialization.
`volatile` ensures the variable's value is not optimized away by the compiler, while `const` guarantees the variable's value will never change.
Q3Domain Verified
Consider a scenario in an ARM Cortex-M microcontroller where an interrupt occurs. The processor automatically saves the current context. Which mechanism is primarily responsible for managing the saving and restoring of these context registers to facilitate a seamless return to the interrupted task?
The hardware's automatic context saving mechanism (e.g., stacking on exception entry)
Manual register saving by the programmer in the ISR
The linker script's memory map configuration
The compiler's optimization routines
