Covers the significant embedded computing
technologies–highlighting their applications in wireless
communication and computing power
An embedded system is a computer system designed for specific
control functions within a larger system–often with real-time
computing constraints. It is embedded as part of a complete device
often including hardware and mechanical parts. Presented in three
parts, Embedded Systems: Hardware, Design, and
Implementation provides readers with an immersive introduction
to this rapidly growing segment of the computer industry.
Acknowledging the fact that embedded systems control many of
today’s most common devices such as smart phones, PC tablets, as
well as hardware embedded in cars, TVs, and even refrigerators and
heating systems, the book starts with a basic introduction to
embedded computing systems. It hones in on system-on-a-chip (So C),
multiprocessor system-on-chip (MPSo C), and network-on-chip (No C).
It then covers on-chip integration of software and custom hardware
accelerators, as well as fabric flexibility, custom architectures,
and the multiple I/O standards that facilitate PCB integration.
Next, it focuses on the technologies associated with embedded
computing systems, going over the basics of field-programmable gate
array (FPGA), digital signal processing (DSP) and
application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) technology,
architectural support for on-chip integration of custom
accelerators with processors, and O/S support for these
systems.
Finally, it offers full details on architecture, testability,
and computer-aided design (CAD) support for embedded systems, soft
processors, heterogeneous resources, and on-chip storage before
concluding with coverage of software support–in particular,
O/S Linux.
Embedded Systems: Hardware, Design, and Implementation is
an ideal book for design engineers looking to optimize and reduce
the size and cost of embedded system products and increase their
reliability and performance.
