APPLICATIONS OF EMBEDDED SYSTEMS


Introduction An embedded system combines mechanical, electrical, and chemical components along with a computer, hidden inside, to perform a single dedicated purpose. There are more computers on this planet than there are people, and most of these computers are single-chip microcontrollers that are the brains of an embedded system. www.ozassignmenthelp.com.au


What is Embedded System? An embedded system is a dedicated computer system designed for one or two specific functions. This system is embedded as a part of a complete device system that includes hardware, such as electrical and mechanical components.

ADVANTAGES OF EMBEDDED SYSTEM  Small size and faster to load  More specific to one task  Easy to manage  Low cost  Spend less resources  These operating system is dedicated to one device so performance is good and use less resources like memory and micro-processors www.ozassignmenthelp.com.au


Disadvantages of embedded system Difficult to upgrade If any problem occurs then you need to reset settings Nearly not scalable Hardware is limited Troubleshooting is difficult Difficult to transfer data from one system to other www.ozassignmenthelp.com.au
