Embedded Systems

Simply put, embedded systems are computer systems embedded in a technical hardware and software system. These systems are used in various industries and fulfill roles such as controlling, monitoring and regulating a wide range of parameters.

Ever more complex and increasingly controlled by AI, embedded systems are becoming more and more important for applications such as autonomous driving, infotainment, industrial communication, managed IoT, flight control, industrial robotics and mobility solutions – to name just a few.

Safety-critical or non-critical – the cycle is always important

Embedded systems usually have a modular structure such that they can be expanded and upgraded as easily as possible.

Interactive or reactive, the interaction and timing of the individual components of the embedded systems is of great importance.

The precise timing of the individual modules or applications ensures error-free data or signal processing.

Industrial robots, healthcare or modern IIoT systems – embedded systems provide the control

Whether for simple computers or complex control systems, our crystals are part of these multi-protocol, low-power embedded devices in multi-technology industries.

The GEYER components work independently of the communication BUS and are regularly qualified with the most important and latest microprocessors to ensure precise functionality of the embedded systems and ultimately of the end applications.
