  • Patent number: 12169735
    Abstract: An electronic device includes: a memory configured to a program; and one or more processors configured to execute the program stored in the memory. The one or more processors are connected to a first circuit and a second circuit, the first circuit being configured to execute a first operation cyclically and output an interrupt signal corresponding to the first operation, the second circuit being configured to execute a second operation in response to an operation instruction. In response to receiving the interrupt signal, the one or more processors output the operation instruction to the second circuit such that the second operation is not executed in a period in which the first operation affects the second operation.
