What is an embedded system ?

An embedded system is a computer system designed to perform one or a few dedicated functions often with real-time computing.

C Programming and Embedded systems

The C programming language is perhaps the most popular programming language for programming embedded systems. C continues to be a very popular language for micro-controller developers/programmers due to the code efficiency and reduced overhead and development time. C offers low-level control and is considered more readable than assembly language which is a little difficult to understand. Assembly language requires more code writing, whereas C is easy to understand and requires less coding. Plus, using C increases portability, since C code can be compiled for different types of processors. We can program microcontrollers using 8051, AVR or PIC.

We can develop our programs as per our electronic hardware using 8051 micro controller. For example we can blink led, increment decrement counters, token displays etc.Here we will discuss about microcontroller 8051 and how we can use C language to program 8051 microcontroller
