EMBEDDED SYSTEM
An embedded system is a special-purpose system in which the computer is completely encapsulated by the device it controls. Unlike a general-purpose computer, such as a personal computer, an embedded system performs pre-defined tasks, usually with very specific requirements. Since the system is dedicated to a specific task, design engineers can optimize it, reducing the size and cost of the product. Embedded systems are often mass-produced, so the cost savings may be multiplied by millions of items.An embedded system is a computer system designed to perform one or a few dedicated functions.An embedded system is housed on a single microprocessor board with the programs stored in ROM.Some embedded systems include an operating system, but many are so specialized that the entire logic can be implemented as a single program.
