RISC-based Applications
The nature of RISC architecture and semiconductors' rapid technical improvements, RISC embedded platforms have become the best choice for embedded applications.

RISC performance characteristics:

Power Critical
  Battery powered and typically less than 2 Watts of power consumption for a whole SBC using an ARM processor, compared to around 15+ Watts for a x86-based SBC.
Space Critical
  With a low power SoC solution, the main system can fit into very compact space, eliminating heat dissipation concerns.
Environmental Critical
  Because of the lack of heat generation, the RISC system can be fully enclosed for total protection from the environment
Cost Critical
  RISC embedded solutions usually come with application-oriented SoC processors that provide a lower cost of ownership because of faster time to market, less development risk and greater overall added value.

Typical RISC applications:

Industrial mobile platforms
Touch based Human Machine Interface (HMI)
Point of Information (POI) or Point of Sales (POS)
In-vehicle telemetric
Data collector
Security controller
