What are some examples of computers that don't seem like computers?
A household appliance, like a washing machine, is an example. Mobile phones are computers.
What are the disadvantages of an embedded computer?
Embedded computers are devices that perform a specific function in a higher assembly. The limitations of any particular embedded computer are the specifications for which it was designed. I once designed, fabricated, and coded a microprocessor based add-on for an internal navigation system. Within the INS was a single pin that was modulated with a series of several hundred bits in a ring format. All the µprocessor had to do was find the frame start pattern and demodulate the data into a memory array, then broadcast selected information out of a UART (COMM port interface). This is an example of an embedded computer. It had a specific function that it performed continuously. Some other examples of embedded computers are the Video, Sound, NIC, and/or Modem cards you may find in the backplane of your PC. Most of these functions are performed in (embedded into) the Chipset of the PC, but the design of the motherboard allows you to turn off any of these features if you want to upgrade to a better board.
What are the six basic types of computers?
Six basic categories of computers: - Embedded computers - Mobile devices - Personal computers - Midrange servers - Mainframe computers - Supercomputers
What is a special-purpose computer that functions as a component in a larger product?
Do you mean what type of computer is a special purpose computer [...]? I'm not aware of any single term for a computer that functions as a component in a larger system.Below is some examples of computers which do function as a component in larger systems:Clustering Operating System is a type of software which allows multiple computers to join together and its software + networking disguises the underlying computers to look like one large computer.This is useful for scientific computing where all computers will be guaranteed to not shut down, but more resources than is available on one computer is needed to complete the computation.Fail-Over Load-Balancing Server is another type of computer. It's purpose is to run a process on multiple computers at once. And the one that succeeds first is the one that gets processed. The Load-Balancing part knows what computers to start a process on. This is so if one computer goes down, the software component will still get ran.This is useful for web-servers which need fault tolerance so if one computer goes down, the software still performs its job.There are also Industrial Computers which function together, but individually, to produce a single product. Like on conveyer belts in a manufacturing plant.
In 2049 will 1000 dollor computers be smarter than the human race?
Not unless thes computers are embedded with a self-aware AI. Also, comuters are not smart at all, they can only do 3 or 4 functions.
Are examples of embedded computers-microwave oven video machine ATM's?
Microwave oven
Computers are specially designed computer chips that reside inside other devices such as a car?
Embedded computers
What are embedded computers also known as?
microcomputers
How are robots and computers alike?
Robots contain one or more embedded computers.
What are the seven categories of computer?
Based on the size and use, computers can be categorized into seven types. They are embedded computers, super computers, main frame computers, servers, game consoles, mobile computers and personal computers.
What types of computers are inside cars or thermostates?
Embedded Computers are in cars, thermostates basically everything.
What are the example of mainframe computing?
IBM system 3 and AS-400 are some examples of minicomputers.
Common examples of embedded systems?
Three common examples of an embedded systems include video game consoles, digital cameras, and DVD players. Another example of an embedded system is a washing machine.
What are some examples of computers that don't seem like computers?
A household appliance, like a washing machine, is an example. Mobile phones are computers.
Embedded computers or what are installed in smart appliances and cars?
micro chips
I need to know it their is some type of computer or circuit board to pulse a 12 volt DC current The amount of pulses per minute needs to be adjustable also need?
One way of doing this, although maybe not the easiest, would be to use a so-called embedded computer. There are a number of embedded computers made for hobbyists that are relatively inexpensive and easy to use. Although these computers cannot themselves control 12 volts DC, they can control transistors or relays which in turn can turn 12 volt DC on and off. Two examples of these computers are the Arduino and the computers made by Parallax.
When embedded invented?
The embedded system was invented in the mid 1980s. However, it was not really used in personalized computers and robots until the mid 90s.
