10 Questions
What is an embedded system?
An embedded system is a computer hardware system with software embedded in it, designed to perform a specific task.
What are the three components of an embedded system?
The three components are hardware, application software, and Real Time Operating System (RTOS).
Can an embedded system be part of a larger system?
Yes, an embedded system can be an independent system, or it can be a part of a large system.
What is the role of Real Time Operating System (RTOS) in an embedded system?
RTOS supervises the application software and provides a mechanism to let the processor run a process as per scheduling by following a plan to control the latencies.
Can you give an example of an embedded system?
A fire alarm is an example of an embedded system, designed to sense only smoke.
What are the characteristics of an embedded system?
An embedded system is a microcontroller or microprocessor-based system designed to perform a specific task. It is a combination of computer hardware and software, either fixed in capability or programmable, and is designed for a specific function within a larger system.
What is the role of Real Time Operating System (RTOS) in supervising application software in an embedded system?
RTOS supervises the application software and provides a mechanism to let the processor run a process as per scheduling by following a plan to control the latencies.
How can an embedded system be described in terms of its components?
An embedded system has three components: hardware, application software, and Real Time Operating System (RTOS) that supervises the application software and provides mechanism to let the processor run a process as per scheduling by following a plan to control the latencies.
Provide an example of a specific embedded system and its function.
A fire alarm is an example of an embedded system designed to sense only smoke.
In what ways can an embedded system be part of a larger system?
An embedded system can be an independent system, or it can be a part of a larger system, performing a specific function within the larger system.
