With the rapid development of microelectronics technology, the rapid integration and deep embedding of computer technology and the application of all walks of life make the embedded application increasingly widely, different embedded product forms, everywhere, but also make the connotation and extension of the concept of embedded system has undergone great changes.
With the increasing application of embedded system in finance, aircraft, automobile, nuclear power and other high safety fields, higher requirements are put forward for the safety, reliability and trustworthiness of embedded system. Various walks of life have produced a variety of software and hardware development specifications, standards and process control systems, and developed the corresponding processor and operating system. With the continuous improvement of application complexity and the continuous expansion of embedded system scale, the design methods that meet the characteristics of security, reliability, credibility and willfulness still need to be further explored.
-
Restricted installation space:
Embedded computers are usually installed in the machine or chassis, facing the limited installation space, small size, fast heat dissipation and provide a variety of installation methods is a very common challenge.
-
24 / 7 Long-time stable operation:
Embedded computers need to run continuously for a long time in a specific industrial environment, such as production line automation equipment, monitoring equipment, navigation system, etc. Temporary shutdown interruption will face huge losses, so there are very strict requirements for the stability of computers.
-
Rigorous use environment:
The use of embedded computer environment is relatively serious, such as high latitude cold areas, or vehicle, boiler and other high temperature environment, in addition to huge changes in temperature, humidity, the environment is usually prone to vibration, impact or strong electromagnetic interference, products must be more solid crashworthiness, in case of system damage or crash, and so on and so forth.
-
Long-term supply:
Different from consumer products may be half a year, a year, install embedded computer equipment often need more than five years, ten years or more use fixed number of year, so not only embedded computer supply time is long, manufacturers need to stock up, to ensure that customers in the need to replace or maintenance products not out of stock, thus affect the production line schedule.

-
Long-term supply:
MAINKCO Use industrial-grade components to provide industrial-grade reliability and 10-15 years.
To conclude:
Human beings’ endless pursuit of the acquisition, characterization, transmission, processing and use of information promotes the hot spots of embedded technology, and different stages in each era and era are also different for embedded characteristics. In the industrial age, instrument control, industrial equipment and automatic control are the earliest use of embedded technology; in the information age, home appliances, computers, communication and network develop rapidly, each era is inseparable from embedded technology.
Virtual reality, big data, cloud computing, Internet of Things, 5G, blockchain, artificial intelligence and other hot spots of the era have prompted the emergence of network live streaming, face recognition, intelligent furniture, intelligent driving, and smart city applications. A variety of smart phones, multi-purpose drones, intelligent auxiliary vehicles, robots and other products are dazzling, and the needs for embedded applications are increasingly rich and diverse. With the rapid implementation of the Internet of Things, big data and artificial intelligence technologies in the future, embedded technologies will enter human life in greater breadth and depth than before.
