A microcontroller (MCU for microcontroller unit) is a small computer on a single VLSI integrated circuit (IC) chip. A microcontroller contains one or more CPUs (processor cores) along with memory and programmable input/output peripherals. Program memory in the form of ferroelectric RAM, NOR flash or … See more
Background
The first multi-chip microprocessors, the Four-Phase Systems AL1 in 1969 and the Garrett AiResearch MP944 in 1970, were developed with multiple MOS LSI chips. The first single-chip … See moreMicro-controllers may not implement an external address or data bus as they integrate RAM and non-volatile memory on the same chip as the CPU. Using fewer pins, the chip can be placed in a much smaller, cheaper package.
Integrating the … See moreAs of 2008 , there are several dozen microcontroller architectures and vendors including:
• ARM core processors (many vendors)
• Microchip Technology See moreTwo different kinds of memory are commonly used with microcontrollers, a non-volatile memory for storing firmware and a read-write … See more
A microcontroller can be considered a self-contained system with a processor, memory and peripherals and can be used as an embedded system. The majority of microcontrollers in … See more
Microcontrollers were originally programmed only in assembly language, but various high-level programming languages, such as C, Python and JavaScript, are now also in common use to target microcontrollers and embedded systems See more
In contrast to general-purpose computers, microcontrollers used in embedded systems often seek to optimize interrupt latency over … See more
