7. SENSOR D –A CONVERTERPROCESSOR & ASICsA-D CONVERTER ACTUATOR
A sensor stores the
measured quantity
to the memory.
Converts the
analog signal
sent by the
sensor in to a
digital signal.
Process the data
to measure the
output and store
it to the memory.
Converts the digital
data
fed by the
processor to analog
data
Compares the
output given by the
D-A Converter to
the actual
(expected) output
stored in it and
stores the
approved output
8. Hardware of an Embedded System
• Central Processing Unit
• Memory(RAM & ROM)
• Input Device
• Output Device
• Communication Interfaces
Software of an Embedded System
• C
• C++
• Python
• Etc..
9. Processors in a System
• Processor is the heart of an embedded system
• It is the basic unit that takes inputs and produces an output after
processing the data.
Microprocessor Microcontroller
Processors
10. Microprocessor
• A microprocessor is a computer processor that
incorporates the functions of a central processing
unit on a single integrated circuit (IC).
• Microprocessors operate on numbers and symbols
represented in the binary number system.
• Microprocessors contain both combinational
logic and sequential digital logic.
11. Microcontroller
• A microcontroller is a functional computer
system-on-a-chip. It contains a processor,
memory, and programmable input/output
peripherals.
• Microcontrollers include an integrated CPU,
memory (a small amount of RAM, program
memory, or both).
• Dedicated to specific task.
12. Microprocessor vs Microcontroller
MICROPROCESSOR MICROCONTROLLER
• It is used for big applications • It is used to execute a single task
within an application.
Hardware cost is High Hardware cost is Low
Power consumption is High Power consumption is Low
RAM: 512MB-32GB RAM: 2KB -256 KB
Not so easy to replace Easy to replace
CLOCK SPEED: 1GHz – 4GHz CLOCK SPEED:1MHz – 300MHz
14. Peripheral Devices in Embedded Systems
• Serial Communication Interfaces (SCI).
• Synchronous Serial Communication Interface
• Universal Serial Bus (USB)
• Multimedia Cards (SD Cards)
• Networks like Ethernet
• Analog to Digital/Digital to Analog (ADC/DAC)

18. REAL TIME EMBEDDED SYSTEM
• Quick response to critical situations.
• Control external environment-input and output interfaces and
sensor.
• elevators
• robots
• traffic lights
• patient monitoring system etc.,
19. STANDALONE EMBEDDED SYSTEM
• Works for itself as a device without need of interconnected
computer.
• Takes data in form of analog or digital signal
• First processes data and outputs data by displaying on the screen
• Can also output data to any attached device
• Example-microwave ovens ,digital camera,Mp3 players, etc.,
20. NETWORK EMBEDDED SYSTEM
• Connected to network(LAN/WAN)-network interfaces
• Connected to network to give output to attached resources
• Connection-wireless or wired
• Example-office security system
22. SMALL SCALE EMBEDDED SYSTEM
• 8-16 bit microcontroller
• One chip RAM,ROM
• Activated –battery
• Behaves as a component of computer
• Does not compute
• Little hardware and software complexity
• Example-digital watch
23. MEDIUM SCALE EMBEDDED SYSTEM
• 16-32 bit microprocessor or micro controller
• External RAM ,ROM
• Integration between hardware and software-complex
24. SOPHISTICATED EMBEDDED SYSTEM
• 32-64 bit chips
• Large scale work
• Complexity of hardware and software-very high
• Example-washing machine
26. Trends in Embedded Development
1.Artificial Intelligence (AI)
• It is a branch of computer science that aims to create intelligent machines.
• It has become an essential part of the technology industry
• The core problems of artificial intelligence :
• Knowledge
• Reasoning
• Problem solving

30. • They are convenient for mass production. This results in low price per
piece.
• These systems are highly stable and reliable.
• Embedded systems are made for specific tasks.
• The embedded systems are very small in size, hence can be carried
and loaded anywhere.
• These systems are fast. They also use less power.
• The embedded systems optimize the use or resources available.
• They improve the product quality.
ADVANTAGES
31. DISADVANTAGES
• They are hard to maintain. It is also difficult to take a back-up of
embedded files.
• Transferring data from one system to another is also quite
problematic.
• Embedded systems are made for specific tasks, hardware is limited.
• Hard to upgrade and repair.
• The embedded system will lose a substantial amount of money if it
shuts off
32. Conclusion
