Series Four: Embedded Microprocessors (MPU) in Software System Architecture

1. What is an Embedded Microprocessor? The embedded MPU has evolved from the CPU of general-purpose computers, but has been functionally trimmed and optimized for embedded applications. It typically retains hardware modules closely related to the application (such as arithmetic units, controllers, and registers), removing redundant functions to reduce power consumption and cost.
