Applications of Embedded Systems Difference between General Purpose System and Embedded System Characteristics and types of Embedded Systems What is Embedded System Career Opportunities
Embedded System Digital Camera WHAT IS EMBEDDED SYSTEM ? HARDWARE "It is a combination of hardware and software intended to perform a specific task “. An embedded system is a computer system (combination of hardware and software) with a dedicated function within a larger mechanical or electrical system. Embedded system = information processing systems embedded into a larger product HARDWARE Computing system Kodak film camera Task of capturing image Addition task
“Any sort of device which includes a programmable computer but itself is not intended to be a general-purpose computer” Marilyn Wolf
Components of Embedded Systems
Real Time Examples of Embedded Systems
APPLICATIONS OF EMBEDDED SYSTEMS EVERYWHERE
Is Desktop/Laptop computers an Embedded System ???? A desktop computer is considered as a General Purpose System as it can do many different tasks (playing videos, working on office suites, editing images (or videos), browsing the web, etc.) that too simultaneously . An Embedded System is an application oriented system i.e. it is dedicated to perform a single task (or a limited number of tasks, but all working for a single main aim).
Embedded system often includes task-specific hardware mechanical parts not usually found in a general-purpose computer.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN GENERAL PURPOSE SYSTEM AND EMBEDDED SYSTEM General Purpose System Embedded System Designed to perform multiple Tasks Designed to do specific set of Tasks Task specific hardware component is not required Requires task specific hardware component High Power consumption Low Power consumption Programmable by end user therefore applications are alterable by the user Not Programmable by end user therefore applications cannot be altered by the user
Is Mobile Phone an Embedded System???? A first generation digital mobile phone , is probably certainly an embedded system.
Modify (Install/uninstall) the applications but, smartphone comes with pre-installed Operating System (OS) that cannot be modified. Functionality of smartphones cannot be upgraded . As these conditions are in line with embedded system definition. smartphone can be viewed as combination of various embedded systems i.e. Camera, Various sensors, Calling function etc. It is not general purpose computer in true sense. Smartphone is an Embedded System
CHARACTERISTICS OF EMBEDDED SYSTEM High Reliability Characteristics of Embedded system Minimal User Interface Complex Algorithm Multirate Real Time Task Specific Low Cost Less Power
TYPES OF EMBEDDED SYSTEMS Based on Performance and Functional Requirements Based on the Performance of the Microcontroller Real Time System Stand Alone System Networked System Mobile System Small Scale System Medium Scale System Sophisticated System
Stand Alone Embedded System Does not require a host system Takes input, processes it and produces the result through the connected devices.
Real time Embedded System Produces output within a specified time limit. Gives quick response to critical situation Types of Real time Systems Hard Real Time System Entire system collapses if misses deadline 2. Soft Real Time S ystem Missing deadline will only degrade the performance.
Networked Embedded System Connected to the network (LAN or WAN) to access the resource Mobile Embedded System Used in portable devices like mobile phones, digital cameras, mp3 players.
Based on the Performance of the Microcontroller Small Scale System Medium Scale System Sophisticated System
