Interrupts in Nucleus SE
Abstract
All microprocessors utilize interrupts and their use is fundamental to real-time system design. Interaction between interrupts and real-time operating systems (RTOSes) varies from one RTOS to another. This chapter explores the possibilities and details how interrupts work with Nucleus RTOS and Nucleus SE.

All modern microprocessors and microcontrollers have interrupt facilities of some sort. This capability is essential to provide the responsiveness required for many applications. Of course, being responsive and predictable is also a key objective behind the use of a real-time operating system (RTOS), so the two topics do potentially conflict slightly. Using interrupts might compromise ...
