Embedded Systems

I A Computer that is built into electronic devices to simplify the designor enhance performance.

I Often the user is unaware of the presence of the computer.I Interacts with the physical world.I Networked communicates with other devices and computers to

co-ordinate actions and distribute the workload.

CharacteristicsI Reliability

• Mission Critical• life threatening• 24/7/365• Can’t reboot

I Performance

• Soft and Hard Real-Time requirements.• External events trigger actions.• Some degree of multi-tasking (interrupts/RTOS)

I Cost

• Consumer market – minimise manufacturing costs• Fast time to market required• No chance for future in service modifications

I Limited Interaction

• difficult to debug• demanding technical and programming work

I Challenging, demanding, fun, & very satisfying to work on

I Embedded systems outnumber PC "Computers"

• ≈ 100 : 1I Many unseen

• 5 or more in the kitchen• at least 2 on the outside of the PC• several in this room

I A "Computer" is a collection of several micro-cotrollers/processors

examplesI More than 86 billion ARM R©-based chips shipped to date.I Microchip – PIC and AVR (ATmega in Arduino)

Following in the Steps and LeapsApollo Guidance Computer

I First use of integrated circuits to build a computer.

• Kick started IC industry• NASA/MIT/Apollo consumed 60% of the IC production in the USA

I Early use of concurrency via extensive use of interrupts.I One of the first significant avionics control systemsI High reliability. (MTBF 50000 hours)I Pioneered many embedded, safety-critical techniques.

• Margaret Hamilton, of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, withher colleagues, she developed the building blocks for modern “softwareengineering,” a term Hamilton coined.

• Apollo 11, 1201 and 1202 alarms

I May be the first “networked” embedded system
