EMBEDDED SYSTEM
Principles of Logic Design
Learning Outcome
• At the end of this lesson the students will be able to:
• A system whose principal function is not
computational, but which is controlled by a computer
embedded within it.
• A combination of computer hardware and software
designed for a specific function. Embedded systems
may also function within a larger system. The systems
can be programmable or have a fixed functionality.
• Embedded System in Radio Frequency ID(RFID) cards contain enough
information to identify you to the system.
• Cellular phones
• Vehicles
• Radios
• Television
• Light sensors
• Solar panels
• Etc..
• Hardware
• Software
• Real-Time-Operating System (RTOS)
• Single-functioned
• Tightly constrained
• Reactive and Real time
• Microprocessor based
• Memory
Basic Structure of an Embedded System
Types of Embedded systems
• Embedded systems are classified into four categories
based on their performance and functional
requirements:
