The necessities that are driving the invention of embedded instrumentation arise from several imperatives. First, the speed and complexity of technology today, starting at the chip level, has escalated geometrically. Chip-to-chip interconnects and input/output (I/O) buses have blown past the gigabits-per-second (Gbps) and are pushing into the five to eight Gbps range. Moreover, the hundreds of millions and billions of gates now present on chips have increased the complexity of devices exceedingly.
