A microprocessor is a computer. All computers, whether they are personal desktop computers, large computers, or microcontrollers, have many similarities:
All computers have a CPU (Central Processing Unit) for executing programs. If you are sitting in front of a desktop computer reading this article,
the CPU of this computer is currently executing a program, which is a web browser used to display this webpage.
The CPU loads programs from a device. On your desktop computer, browser programs are loaded from the hard drive.
Computers have some RAM (Random Access Memory) used to store “variables”.
In addition, computers also have some input and output devices so that they can exchange information with users. On your desktop computer,
the keyboard and mouse are input devices, while the monitor and printer are output devices. A hard drive is an input/output device – it can both input and output.
The desktop computer you are using is a “general-purpose computer” that can run thousands of various programs. Microcontrollers are specialized
computers used for special purposes. It focuses on doing one thing. Microcontrollers share many common characteristics. If a computer has most of the following characteristics, then you can call it a “microcontroller”:
Microcontrollers are embedded within other devices (usually consumer products) to control the functionality and operation of the product. Therefore,
microcontrollers are also known as “embedded controllers”.
A microcontroller runs a specific program to accomplish a specialized task. This program is stored in ROM (Read Only Memory) and is generally not modified.
