Re: Interrupts per second

Ryan,

It all depends on how many (and which kind of) instructions are being executed in the interrupt.

Here is a good discussion on the time required to service the interrupt before your code even gets to run.

In general, keep the code short and 2000 interrupts per second should not be an issue.
