A microcontroller is a compact integrated circuit designed to govern a specific operation in an embedded system. A typical microcontroller includes a processor,memory and input/output(I/O) peripherals on a single chip.
Sometimes referred to as an embedded controller or microcontroller unit(MCU), microcontrollers are found in vehicles, robots,office machines, medical devices and other home appliances.
Microcontroller features:
A Microcontroller's processor will vary by application. Options range from simple 4-bit,8-bit or 16-bit processors to more complex 32-bit and 64-bit processors. In terms of memory microcontrollers can use random access memory(RAM),flash memory,EPROM or EEPROM.
When they first became available,microcontrollers solely used assembly language.
MCUs feature input and output pins to implement peripheral functions.Such functions include
analog-to-digital converters,liquid crystal display(LCD) controllers,real-time clock
