ARM Architecture - Power Modes
Which of the following is commonly used as a wake-up source in ARM devices?
AExternal interrupt from a button press
BIncreasing CPU frequency
CWriting to a memory location
DDisabling the power supply
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Identify typical wake-up sources

    Common wake-up sources include external interrupts like button presses or signals from peripherals.
  2. Step 2: Evaluate the options

    Only an external interrupt from a button press can wake the system; others do not cause wake-up.
  3. Final Answer:

    External interrupt from a button press -> Option A
  4. Quick Check:

    Common wake-up source = External interrupt [OK]
Quick Trick: Buttons often act as wake-up triggers [OK]
Common Mistakes:
  • Thinking CPU frequency changes wake the system
  • Assuming memory writes cause wake-up
  • Confusing power supply disabling with wake-up
