Understanding the Complex Relationships Between MCU, ARM, DSP, and FPGA in Embedded Systems
Follow UsLearn Embedded Systems Together, let's learn and grow togetherFirst of all, "embedded" is a concept, and there is no accurate definition; each book has its own definition. However, the main idea is the same: compared to general-purpose systems like PCs, embedded systems are specialized systems with a streamlined structure, retaining only the necessary parts in hardware and software while eliminating the unnecessary ones. Therefore, embedded systems generally have characteristics such as portability, low power consumption, and single performance.Then, MCU, DSP, and FPGA all belong to the category of embedded systems and are tools used to achieve specific purposes.MCU, commonly known as "microcontroller", has evolved over the years and is no longer just the Princeton structure 51; its performance has
