3. Definition
• Embedded computing system: any
device that includes a programmable
computer but is not itself a general-
purpose computer.
• System has a S/W embedded into
Computer H/W, which makes the
system dedicated for an application
or specific part of an application or
product or part of a larger system.

31. Difference between RISC and CISC
Friday, September 04, 2015 By AMRUTA CHINTAWAR 31
RISC CISC
Reduced instruction set Complex Instruction set
Maximum instructions are
single cycle(fixed size),thus
supports pipelining
Variable size Instructions,so
generally do not have
pipelining
Orthogonal instruction set Non-Orthogonal
Operations are performed on
registers, so large no of
Registers.
For memory only Load and
Store
Operations are performed on
both registers and memory.
Limited number of GPRs

32. Difference between RISC and CISC
Friday, September 04, 2015 By AMRUTA CHINTAWAR 32
RISC CISC
Hardwired Control unit Microcode control Unit
Small in size with resp to die area
and No.of pins
Comparatively large in size since
more complex instruction needs
to be implemented.
