Interrupts vs Polling

In this video, we explore one of the most important concepts in Embedded Systems — Interrupts vs Polling. You will understand how microcontrollers handle real-world events efficiently and why interrupts are critical for low power and high-performance embedded applications. This session covers: ✔ What is Polling in Embedded Systems? ✔ CPU Load & Power Consumption in Polling ✔ What are Interrupts & ISR? ✔ External Interrupt Handling using GPIO ✔ NVIC & Interrupt Flow in Microcontrollers This session also introduces important concepts like interrupt controllers, interrupt service routines (ISR), external interrupts, GPIO interrupt configuration, and efficient event-driven programming in embedded systems. You will also understand how interrupts improve CPU efficiency, reduce power consumption, and enable responsive embedded applications. Whether you're a beginner starting Embedded Systems, Microcontrollers, Embedded C, or RTOS concepts, this video gives you a strong conceptual foundation as part of the Complete Embedded Systems learning series.
