Embedded System

An embedded system is a microprocessor-based system designed to perform a dedicated function within a larger mechanical or electrical system. It consists of a microprocessor or microcontroller, memory, and input/output devices. Common applications of embedded systems include automotive electronics, aircraft electronics, medical devices, smart appliances, and mobile devices. Essential components are a microprocessor or digital signal processor, memory, sensors, actuators, analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog converters, and communication interfaces. Embedded systems are classified as stand-alone, real-time, networked information appliances, or mobile devices depending on their application and characteristics.

General Characteristics of Embedded Systems


Perform a single task Increasingly high performance and real time constrained Power, cost and reliability are important considerations HW-SW systems Software is used for more features and flexibility Hardware (processors, ASICs, memory etc. are used for performance and security

Classification of Embedded Systems


Stand alone Embedded system Real time Embedded system Networked information appliances Mobile devices

Stand alone embedded system


Performs only one task(specific) example1.LCD,LED systems,TV remote system etc.

Real time systems


1.Soft Real Time 2.Hard Real Time

Networking Information Appliances

Mobile System
PDA Mobile systems Video Games

Importance of Embedded Software and Embedded Processors


... the New York Times has estimated that the average American comes into contact with about 60 micro-processors every day.... [Camposano, 1996] Most of the functionality of embedded systems will be implemented in software!

Latest top-level BMWs contain over 100 microprocessors [Personal communication]

CONCLUSION
Now a days the role embedded systems is formal Es makes the tasks simple Es is growing as the technology grows
