ARM PracticeExamProblems

The document contains an ARM practice exam with multiple choice questions (Part A), true/false statements (Part B), and open-ended questions (Part C) about ARM architecture, GPIO pins, timers, and temperature control using an ARM microcontroller. Part A tests knowledge of ARM core architecture, bit-banding, boot configuration, GPIO configuration and modes, register names, clock sources, watchdog behavior and interrupts. Part B contains statements to identify as true or false regarding GPIO, supply voltages, timer configuration and DAC module operation. Part C involves drawing timing diagrams for a timer in up and down counting modes and designing an ARM project for temperature control of a heater using an ADC for temperature reading and GPIO pin for heater

Part B: Mark the following statements as either True (T) or False (F):
16. 17. 18. 19. 20. 21. 22. 23. 24. 25. 26. 27. 28. 29. 30. To allow a GPIO to work as input/output, it must be configured as an open-drain output mode. It is not possible to disable the output buffer of a GPIO. A +5V supply is an acceptable VDD supply voltage of the ARM processor. Analog supply voltage VDDA can be different from digital supply VDD. Power on reset and power down reset voltages can be programmed to be the same. Programmable voltage detector hysteresis can be programmed through PLS[0:2]. After enabling the PLL clock multiplier, it is not possible to reprogram the multiplication factor. SysTick interrupt priority can be reprogrammed. All interrupt sources can be masked by software. It is possible to activate an external interrupt based on both rising and falling triggers. A general purpose timer can be programmed to work in up/down mode. TIM2 and TIM5 are programmed and work independently. It is possible to automatically generate random noise output from the DAC module. The DAC module can be programmed as a 10-bit DAC. It is possible to trigger conversion in DAC module by software.

Part C: Answer the following questions:


31. Draw a timing diagram of TIM2 in down-counting mode starting from TIM2_CNT value of 0x0001 and given that TIM2_ARR is 0x0003. 32. Draw a timing diagram of TIM2 in up-counting mode starting from TIM2_CNT value of 0x0001 and given that the starting value of TIM2_ARR was 0x0003 and that it was rewritten to be 0x0004 when TIM2_CNT became 0x0002 and given that ARPE=0. 33. Consider the simple microcontroller-controlled dialysate heater shown below. Design an ARM project that would enable the ON/OFF control of the heater to adjust the temperature to within a given predefined range Tmin and Tmax. The desired control is such that the heater is turned on whenever the temperature drops below Tmin and turned off when the temperature is above Tmax. Assume that the ADC used is of 8-bit FLASH type connected to GPIO port PA (i.e., digital input reading corresponds to the temperature value whenever it is read). Assume also that the control of the heater is such that when the microcontroller pin PB0 is 1 the heater is ON and when it is 0 the heater is OFF. Thermistor Heater
