An embedded system is a combination of hardware and software provided that both should be synchronized with each other. Some examples are as follows: industrial machines, automobiles, medical equipment, cameras, household appliances, airplanes, vending machines and toys. With this module student will get firm career growth in Electronics domain.

Major Characteristics of Embedded Systems:

Embedded systems usually vary from the general purpose computer systems in a lot ways. Major characteristics of such systems are as follows:

1. Single Key function: Unlike software like Microsoft Word & Excel or a database, an embedded system runs a single program repeatedly.

2. Direct interaction with the real world: Embedded systems usually communicate with the real world environment through sensors and user interfaces. The users of embedded systems can directly control or modify their attributes when needed.

3. Operate under tight boundaries: Embedded systems have restricted resources in terms power consumption, memory and interfaces for connecting with other systems.

Job Prospects:

An Embedded System is simply a combination of computer hardware and software, either fixed in operability or programmable, which is designed to perform a specific function. It is called an embedded system because it is embedded in a much complex device to control, enhance or assist the operation of that device. Take, for example, any latest car. The automatic transmission, GPS navigation, sun roof, radio, anti-lock brakes inside the car are all embedded systems.
