Difference Between Microprocessor and Microprocessor

The microprocessor is the central processing unit of a computer system that performs arithmetic and logic operations like adding, subtracting, and comparing numbers. A microcontroller is embedded inside devices like robots, washing machines, and MP3 players to control their functions by collecting input from sensors and executing programs to control outputs like motors. While microprocessors are mainly used in personal computers, microcontrollers are used in compact embedded systems and have integrated memory, input/output components, and a processor on a single chip.

The microprocessor is the central unit of a


computer system that performs arithmetic
and logic operations, which generally
include adding, subtracting, transferring
numbers from one area to another, and
comparing two numbers. It's often known
simply as a processor, a central processing
unit, or as a logic chip. 10-0ct-2019
A microcontroller is embedded
inside of a system to control a
singular function in a device. It
does this by interpreting data it
receives from its 1/0 peripherals
using its central processor.
What is the function of the A
microcontroller in the robot?

As CPU is the brain of computer, for Robots


microcontroller works as its brain. It
collects information from input devices
(eg. sensors) and then executes programs
and then according to this execution it
controls the output devices such as
motors and LEDs. 23-Dec-2011

What are the 3 main functions of a A


microprocessor?

The functions of microprocessor are given


below: (a) To fetch, decode and execute
instructions. (b) To transfer data from one
block to another block or from one block to
1/0 lines. (c) To give proper response to
different externally produced interrupts
according to their priority.
