Microcontroller technology: 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.

Microprocessor systems: A microprocessor system consists of data input, storage, processing and output devices, under the control of a CPU. • The main unit of a desktop PC is a modular system, consisting of the motherboard, power supply and disk drives.

Microprocessor consists of only a Central Processing Unit, whereas Micro Controller contains a CPU, Memory, I/O all integrated into one chip. Microprocessor uses an external bus to interface to RAM, ROM, and other peripherals, on the other hand, Microcontroller uses an internal controlling bus. Trainees will be able to learn and differentiate these on this unit.
