Is knowing electronics a prerequisite for embedded programming?

Hi all,

As a C++ programmer and graduated as a software engineer, I would like to enter embedded programming. As for C++, it's OK and I can use it for that purpose but I'm not sure about electronics. 
Is knowing electronics a prerequisite for embedded programming, in your points of view? If so, how much of that, please?


When studying at university we passed some courses related to electronics though, but now not sure what else should to gain on electronics before programming for embedded devices. Or, if there's any useful tutorial you might have in mind for that issue. 

Thanks in advance.
