Embedded Systems Quiz

Embedded system = A computer system with a dedicated function within a larger mechanical or electronic system Microcontroller = A type of microprocessor with integrated memory and peripheral interfaces Digital signal processor (DSP) = A common standard class of dedicated processors General-purpose microprocessor = Microprocessors using external chips for memory and peripheral interface circuits

Embedded system often has real-time computing constraints = Controls physical operations of the machine it is embedded within Modern embedded systems are often based on microcontrollers = Can be optimized to reduce the size and cost of the product Some embedded systems are mass-produced = Benefit from economies of scale An ordinary microprocessor uses external chips for memory and peripheral interface circuits = Common, especially in more complex systems
