Week 1- Fall 2009. Dr. Kimberly E. Newman. University of Colorado. General Introduction. The scope of embedded system design platform has expanded from the traditional system of a programmed microprocessor or microcontroller to the use of “embedded cores and processors”, and reconfigurable devices as components of a digital system.  This growth in technology provides greater design flexibility, in that the system architect/designer can choose the mix of hardware and software components of a system, and have more control over the computing architecture and organization of the system.
