Question 9
|
The details of an interrupt cycle are shown in figure.
Given that an interrupt input arrives every 1 msec, what is the percentage of the total time that the CPU devotes for the main program execution.
|
90%
|
Question 9 Explanation:
Time to service an interrupt
= saving state of CPU + ISR execution + restoring of CPU state
= (80 + 10 + 10) × 10-6
= 100 μs
For every 1ms an interrupt occurs which is served for 100 μs.
1ms = 1000μs
Thus, for every 1000μs, (1000 – 100) = 900 μs of main program and 100μs of interrupt overhead exists.
Thus, 900/1000 is usage of CPU to execute main program .
∴ % of CPU to execute main program is (900/1000) × 100 = 90%
= saving state of CPU + ISR execution + restoring of CPU state
= (80 + 10 + 10) × 10-6
= 100 μs
For every 1ms an interrupt occurs which is served for 100 μs.
1ms = 1000μs
Thus, for every 1000μs, (1000 – 100) = 900 μs of main program and 100μs of interrupt overhead exists.
Thus, 900/1000 is usage of CPU to execute main program .
∴ % of CPU to execute main program is (900/1000) × 100 = 90%
