Glossary
The PICKPLACE Embedded Glossary explains key terms in the development of embedded systems, electronics, and software. It is aimed at developers, technical project managers, and decision-makers who deal with microcontrollers, hardware development, Embedded Software and deal with system architectures.
The entries explain technical terms from areas such as printed circuit board development (PCBMicrocontroller architectures, interfaces, real-time systems, embedded software, hardware design, and test and production processes for electronic systems. The goal is to explain important technical terms concisely and in a technically understandable way.
