"It's the interrupt latency," he whispered to the empty room. The "brain" that handled high-level logic
The soft blue glow of the logic analyzer was the only light in the lab at 3:00 AM. Elias sat hunched over a development board, his eyes tracing the intricate copper veins of the PCB. He was staring at a ghost in the machine. The soft blue glow of the logic analyzer
As the compiler ran, the progress bar moved with agonizing slowness.
Every time the sensor triggered an event, the Nios II had to stop what it was doing, save its state, and handle the data. In the world of seismic waves, those microseconds were an eternity.
The goal was simple: detect a tremor before it became a tragedy. But the software was lagging. The Nios II was fast, but the sheer volume of raw data from the sensors was choking the bus. 🔍 The Breaking Point
