Embedded Systems

In 2009, around 98% of microprocessors manufactured were used in embedded systems.

Definition and Characteristics

An embedded system is a combination of computer hardware and software designed to perform a specific task.
Modern embedded systems are often based on microcontrollers or system-on-a-chip (SoC).
Main components of an embedded system include microprocessors, memory, and input/output devices.
A characteristic of embedded systems is that they are designed to perform a specific task, and they are often part of a larger system.
The main function of an embedded system is to perform a specific task, such as controlling a device or system.

Processors and Components

Modern embedded systems commonly use microprocessors or microcontrollers, such as ARM or RISC-based processors.
Typical components included in an embedded system are microprocessors, memory, input/output devices, and peripherals.
