To build an embedded system, the first step is to confirm the desired Instruction Set Architecture (ISA). Each ISA has its advantages and disadvantages, and this article will introduce the concept and scope of embedded systems, as well as the aspects to consider when choosing an ISA. To meet the diverse application needs of customers, … Read more
Efficient embedded systems, if purely pursuing speed and performance, can be resolved by using the highest configuration hardware (high-performance CPUs, large memory, and various good peripherals, etc.). However, this goes against the original intention of embedded systems. As an embedded system is asoftware and hardware system flexibly tailored based on user needs, designing a high-performance … Read more
High-performance embedded systems, if purely pursuing speed and performance, can be addressed by using the highest specification hardware (high-performance CPUs, large memory, and various good peripherals, etc.). However, this contradicts the original intent of embedded systems. As a type of flexible hardware and software system tailored to user needs, designing high-performance embedded systems must consider … Read more
