  5. Embedded System Definition: 1. “An embedded system is a system that has software embedded into computer-hardware, which makes a system dedicated for an application (s) or specific part of an application or product or part of a larger system.” www.Bookspar.com | Website for Students | VTU - Notes - Question Papers

  6. Contd.. 2. “An embedded system is one that has a dedicated purpose software embedded in a computer hardware.” www.Bookspar.com | Website for Students | VTU - Notes - Question Papers

  7. Contd.. 3. “It is any device that includes programmable computer but is not itself intended to be a general purpose computer.” – Wayne Wolf, Ref: 61 www.Bookspar.com | Website for Students | VTU - Notes - Question Papers

  8. 4. “Embedded Systems are the electronic systems that contain a microprocessor or a microcontroller, but we do not think of them as computers– the computer is hidden or embedded in the system.” – Todd D. Morton, Ref: 38 www.Bookspar.com | Website for Students | VTU - Notes - Question Papers

  10. Let’s consider a Computer • A computer is a system that has the following or more components. • A microprocessor • A large memory comprising the following • two kinds: • (a) Primary memory (semiconductor • memories - RAM, ROM and fast accessible • caches) www.Bookspar.com | Website for Students | VTU - Notes - Question Papers

  15. 3. Embeds a real time operating system ( RTOS), which supervises the application software tasks running on the hardware and organizes the accesses to system resources according to priorities and timing constraints of tasks in the system. www.Bookspar.com | Website for Students | VTU - Notes - Question Papers

  16. Real Time Operating System(RTOS) An RTOS is an OS for response time controlled and event controlled processes. Software for a large number of small-scale embedded systems use no RTOS and these functions are incorporated into the application software. www.Bookspar.com | Website for Students | VTU - Notes - Question Papers
