  2. Embedded system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embedded_system

    An embedded system is a specialized computer system —a combination of a computer processor, computer memory, and input/output peripheral devices—that has a dedicated function within a larger mechanical or electronic system. [1][2] It is embedded as part of a complete device often including electrical or electronic hardware and mechanical parts.

  3. Computer architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_architecture

    Block diagram of a basic computer with uniprocessor CPU. Black lines indicate control flow, whereas red lines indicate data flow. Arrows indicate the direction of flow. In computer science and computer engineering, computer architecture is a description of the structure of a computer system made from component parts. [1]

  4. System on a chip - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_on_a_chip

    A system on a chip or system-on-chip (SoC / ˌˈɛsoʊsiː /; pl. SoCs / ˌˈɛsoʊsiːz /) is an integrated circuit that integrates most or all components of a computer or other electronic system. These components almost always include on-chip central processing unit (CPU), memory interfaces, input/output devices and interfaces, and secondary ...

  5. Integrated circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integrated_circuit

    A microscope image of an integrated circuit die used to control LCDs.The pinouts are the dark circles surrounding the integrated circuit.. An integrated circuit (IC), also known as a microchip, computer chip, or simply chip, is a small electronic device made up of multiple interconnected electronic components such as transistors, resistors, and capacitors.

  6. Flip-flop (electronics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flip-flop_(electronics)

    A SR latch (R1, R2 = 1 kΩ; R3, R4 = 10 kΩ) In electronics, flip-flops and latches are circuits that have two stable states that can store state information – a bistable multivibrator. The circuit can be made to change state by signals applied to one or more control inputs and will output its state (often along with its logical complement too).

  7. von Neumann architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Von_Neumann_architecture

    The von Neumann architecture —also known as the von Neumann model or Princeton architecture —is a computer architecture based on a 1945 description by John von Neumann, and by others, in the First Draft of a Report on the EDVAC. [1] The document describes a design architecture for an electronic digital computer with these components: The ...

  8. Network on a chip - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_on_a_chip

    v. t. e. A network on a chip or network-on-chip (NoC / ˌɛnˌoʊˈsiː / en-oh-SEE or / nɒk / knock) [nb 1] is a network -based communications subsystem on an integrated circuit ("microchip"), most typically between modules in a system on a chip (SoC). The modules on the IC are typically semiconductor IP cores schematizing various functions ...

  9. PIC microcontrollers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PIC_microcontrollers

    PIC (usually pronounced as /pɪk/) is a family of microcontrollers made by Microchip Technology, derived from the PIC1640 [1][2] originally developed by General Instrument 's Microelectronics Division. The name PIC initially referred to Peripheral Interface Controller, [3] and is currently expanded as Programmable Intelligent Computer. [4]
