About Course

Embedded systems are specialized computing systems designed to perform dedicated functions within a larger mechanical or electrical system. These systems typically consist of a microcontroller or microprocessor that is embedded as part of a larger device to control its operation.

Real-time operation: Many embedded systems must respond to inputs and produce outputs in real-time, often with strict timing constraints.

Limited resources: Embedded systems are often constrained by limited processing power, memory, and energy resources, requiring efficient design and optimization.

Specific functionality: They are designed to perform specific tasks or functions, tailored to the requirements of the device or system they are embedded within.

Integration: Embedded systems are integrated into larger systems or devices, working alongside hardware components and often interacting with other embedded systems or external devices.

Diverse applications: They are used in diverse industries and applications, from simple household appliances to complex autonomous systems in aerospace and robotics.

Development challenges: Designing embedded systems requires consideration of hardware and software co-design, real-time constraints, power efficiency, reliability, and safety.
