Introduction
• Microcomputer:
– A microcomputer is a computer that uses a
microprocessor as its CPU. The system formed by
interfacing the microprocessor with memory and
I/O devices to execute required program
– The Microprocessor is the brain of the
microcomputer

Introduction
• Microprocessor:
– A microprocessor is a multipurpose, programmable,
clock driven, register and ALU based electronic device.
– The key element of all computers, providing the
mathematical and decision making ability.
– It reads binary instructions from a storage device,
called memory. Accepts binary data as input, process
them as per instruction and provides result as output.
