This is the third video
This is the third video in our Embedded Systems Series. In this video, you will learn about the basics of Microcontroller & Peripherals, a type of computer system that is designed to perform a specific task within a larger electrical system. A microcontroller is a small computer on a single integrated circuit that contains a processor core, memory, and programmable input/output peripherals. Microcontrollers are designed to be used in embedded systems, which are systems that are designed to perform a specific task, such as controlling a machine or appliance.
There are many applications for microcontrollers, including controlling appliances and machines in the home, such as washing machines, refrigerators, and thermostats; automating industrial processes; and providing control for a wide range of consumer, automotive, and industrial products.
There are several types of microcontrollers, including 8-bit, 16-bit, and 32-bit microcontrollers. The type of microcontroller that is used depends on the specific requirements of the application. Some microcontrollers are designed to be low-power and low-cost, while others are designed to be high-performance and have more features.
The main difference between a microcontroller and a microprocessor is that a microprocessor is designed to be used as the central processing unit (CPU) of a computer, while a microcontroller is designed to be used in an embedded system. A microprocessor is a general-purpose device that can be used to perform a wide range of tasks, while a microcontroller is a specialized device that is designed to perform a specific set of tasks. A microprocessor typically requires external memory and input/output (I/O) devices to function, while a microcontroller includes these components on the same chip as the processor.
Microprocessors are typically more powerful and have a wider range of capabilities than microcontrollers, but they are also larger and more expensive. Microcontrollers, on the other hand, are smaller, cheaper, and more power-efficient than microprocessors, but they are not as powerful and have a limited range of capabilities.
One of the main advantages of microcontrollers is their low cost and small size, which makes them suitable for use in a wide range of applications where cost and size are important factors. They are also highly reliable, as they are designed to perform a specific set of tasks and do not require the use of an operating system, which can be prone to crashes and other issues.
In terms of types, there are several different types of microcontrollers available, including 8-bit, 16-bit, and 32-bit microcontrollers. The type of microcontroller that is used depends on the specific requirements of the application.
They have become faster and more powerful over the years, enabling the development of modern technologies such as the internet and AI. They will continue to play a crucial role in the evolution of computing and will undoubtedly shape the future of technology.
