## Seminar Presentation: Embedded I/O Systems
*   **Author:** Gouri Sunil (BTech CSE)
*   **Date:** March 27, 2026

## Introduction to Embedded I/O
*   Embedded systems interact with the physical environment.
*   I/O (Input/Output) enables receiving data and producing physical output.
*   Essential for all embedded applications.

## The Embedded I/O System Bridge
*   Handles communication between a Microcontroller and external devices.
*   Acts as a bridge between digital systems and the real world.

## Types of I/O Devices
*   **Input Devices:** Sensors (temperature, pressure), switches, and keypads.
*   **Output Devices:** LEDs, LCD displays, motors, and buzzers.

## I/O Interfaces
*   **GPIO:** General Purpose digital Input/Output.
*   **ADC:** Analog to Digital Converter (Analog → Digital).
*   **DAC:** Digital to Analog Converter (Digital → Analog).

## Serial Communication Protocols
Data is transferred bit by bit for efficiency:
*   **UART:** TX/RX communication, asynchronous.
*   **SPI:** High-speed synchronous communication.
*   **I²C:** Two-wire synchronous communication.

## Applications
*   Automotive Systems and Medical Devices.
*   Smart Homes and Industrial Automation.
*   IoT (Internet of Things) Devices.
