Embedded System/ProcessorEmbedded System/Processor Any electronic system that uses a CPU chip, but that is
not a general-purpose workstation, desktop or laptop computer.
Such systems generally use microprocessors, or they may use custom-designed chips or both. They are used in automobiles, planes, trains, aircraft, machine tools, cameras, televisions, printers consumer and office appliances, cellphones, PDAs and other handhelds as well as robots and toys.
The uses are endless, and billions of microprocessors are shipped every year for a myriad of applications.
Low-cost consumer products can use chips that cost less than a dollar
