EMBEDDED SYSTEM AND ITS APPLICATIONS IINTEGRAL SOLUTIONS
OVERVIEW • What is Embedded System? • Microprocessor Vs Microcontrollers • Applications of Embedded systems. • Microcontrollers from different vendors. • Development requirement. • Demo for a circuit design using microcontroller and simulator. • Discussion. IINTEGRAL SOLUTIONS
What is Embedded system • Embedded Systems • Operations managed behind the scenes by a microcontroller • Microcontroller (MCU) • An integrated electronic computing device that includes three major components on a single chip • Microprocessor (MPU) • Memory • I/O (Input/Output) ports IINTEGRAL SOLUTIONS

Microprocessors Vs Microcontrollers IINTEGRAL SOLUTIONS
Microprocessor • General purpose computer. • Microcontroller • System oriented computer. • Single chip computer. IINTEGRAL SOLUTIONS
Microprocessor-Based Systems IINTEGRAL SOLUTIONS
MicroPROCESSOR – Basic concept CONTROL ADDRESS DATA CPU contains CCUALUdata registersand pointer registers BOOTROM Used at startup Instruction(program)ROM Transducers KeyboardScreenUARTParallelinterface etc DataRAM Microprocessor, by-itself, completely useless – must have external peripherals to Interact with outside world IINTEGRAL SOLUTIONS
Issues with external devices • Many pins • Mechanical failure rates increased • Design time increased – routing issues • Cost increased, board size increased • Continually redesigning same thing • Compatibility between parts • Upgrade part • Many similar options between different projects • In Real-life -- Don’t need “100% flexibility” IINTEGRAL SOLUTIONS

MicroCONTROLLER – Basic concept CONTROL ADDRESS DATA CPU contains CCUALUdata registersand pointer registers BOOTROM Used at startup Instruction(program)ROM Transducers UARTParallelinterface Etc DataRAM Microcontroller – put a limited amount of most commonly used resources “inside” the chip – a “limited” amount is often “enough” for many applications IINTEGRAL SOLUTIONS
MCU-Based Time and Temperature System IINTEGRAL SOLUTIONS
MCU-Based Systems • Includes microprocessor, memory, I/O ports, and support devices (such as timers) on a single semiconductor chip • Buses are generally not available to a system designer • I/O ports are generally multiplexed and can be programmed to perform different functions IINTEGRAL SOLUTIONS
Advantages of microCONTROLLER over microPROCESSOR • Pin count down • Design time down, Board layout size down • Upgrade path easier – matching between peripherals for speed • Cost down – bulk purchases • Reliability up • Common software / hardware design environment available from manufacturer IINTEGRAL SOLUTIONS

Real Time Control Must be able to respond predictably and in a known amount of time Environment cannot wait for microcontroller to respond. IINTEGRAL SOLUTIONS
What is Real Time? “A real time system is one in which the correctness of the computations not only depends upon the logical correctness of the computation but also upon the time at which the result is produced. If the timing constraints of the system are not met, system failure is said to have occurred.” - Donald Gillies IINTEGRAL SOLUTIONS
What is Real Time? “Real time in operating systems:The ability of the operating system to provide a required level of service in a bounded response time.” - POSIX Standard 1003.1 IINTEGRAL SOLUTIONS
Hard vs. Soft Real Time • Hard • guaranteed worst-case response times • absolutely, positively, first time every time • Soft • Kinda, sorta, usually IINTEGRAL SOLUTIONS

Summary • An embedded system is a product that has one or more computers embedded within it, which exercise primarily a control function. • The embedded computer is usually a microcontroller: a microprocessor adapted for embedded control applications. • Microcontrollers are designed according to accepted electronic and computer principles, and are fundamentally made up of microprocessor core, memory and peripherals. • Microchip offers a wide range of microcontrollers, divided into a number of different families. Each family has identical central architecture and instruction set. However, common features also appear across all their microcontrollers. IINTEGRAL SOLUTIONS
