  • UNIT-I - OVERVIEW of EMBEDDED SYSTEMS Embedded System
    UNIT-I - OVERVIEW OF EMBEDDED SYSTEMS Embedded System . An embedded system can be thought of as a computer hardware system having software embedded in it. An embedded system can be an independent system or it can be a part of a large system. An embedded system is a microcontroller or microprocessor based system which is designed to perform a specific task. For example, a fire alarm is an embedded system; it will sense only smoke. An embedded system has three components − It has hardware. It has application software. It has Real Time Operating system (RTOS) that supervises the application software and provide mechanism to let the processor run a process as per scheduling by following a plan to control the latencies. RTOS defines the way the system works. It sets the rules during the execution of application program. A small scale embedded system may not have RTOS. So we can define an embedded system as a Microcontroller based, software driven, reliable, real-time control system. Characteristics of an Embedded System Single-functioned − An embedded system usually performs a specialized operation and does the same repeatedly. For example: A pager always functions as a pager. Tightly constrained − All computing systems have constraints on design metrics, but those on an embedded system can be especially tight. Design metrics is a measure of an implementation's features such as its cost, size, power, and performance. It must be of a size to fit on a single chip, must perform fast enough to process data in real time and consume minimum power to extend battery life.

  • Smbus Architecture and Implementation Overview
    SMBus Architecture and Implementation Overview Robert A. Dunstan Mobile and Handheld Products Group - Mobile Technology Lab Intel Corporation [email protected] Abstract The SMBus was originally designed to add functionality, with a minimum impact on cost (pin count). A single SMBus in a system was envisioned to have sufficient bandwidth and flexibility to communicate with a variety of devices including batteries, LCD contrast and backlight controllers, power plane switches etc. As the SMBus and systems have matured, a different architecture is emerging. On the hardware front, new devices and uses for the bus are appearing, while multiple SMBus segments within a system are becoming common. SMBus host controllers are being adapted to meet these needs. A single SMBus host controller in the chipset has given way to multiple hosts ranging from a dedicated SMBus connecting a pair of devices to embedded controllers that support one or more SMBuses. At the system level, the Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) defines standard methods that can be used to identify the SMBus(s) and devices on a given platform extending the operating system’s the ability to access and control these devices. ACPI will enable the operating system to coordinate its efforts to control the all system components, including those on the SMBus, resulting in better power management, longer battery life and reduced heat generation. with a Version 1.0 of each released early in History 1995. But was SMBus a done deal? SMBus (System Management Bus) was created As with many emerging technologies, the to extend chipset functionality without adding SMBus was incomplete.
