Embedded Systems Architecture and Development Process

1 Definition of Embedded Systems

An embedded system is a specialized computer system that is part of a device or equipment. Typically, embedded systems are control programs stored in ROM on an embedded processor control board. In fact, all devices with digital interfaces, such as watches, microwaves, video recorders, and cars, use embedded systems. Some embedded systems also include operating systems, while others implement the entire control logic with a single program (bare-metal). Embedded systems are a combination of software and
