Microcontrollers
A microcontroller is a small computer
that is fitted in a single integrated
circuit (IC) chip. It is made up of
memory, a processor, as well as input-
output interfaces or ports.
Activity: MATCH

b. 8051 microcontroller

c. ARM microcontroller

d. AVR microcontroller

e. MSP microcontroller
Activity: TRUE or
FALSE
Direction: Identify whether the
following statements is true or false.
1. A microcontroller is
programmed to perform a
specific task.
TRUE
2. Microcontroller are
reprogrammable.
FALSE
3. It consumes less power
because all physical
characteristics are smaller
and demands less energy.

TRUE
4. Can handle a single
operation and task at a single
time.
TRUE
5. Microcontroller can multitask.

FALSE
Advantages of using
Microcontrollers:
 A microcontroller is programmed to perform a
specific task.
 It consumes less power because all physical
characteristics are smaller and demands less
energy.
 It is placed on a single chip on a smaller and
more compact scale.
 This also means that the battery can supply
power longer.
Advantages of using
Microcontrollers:
 They also have single-purpose input and output
peripherals or ports:
 universal input bus (USB)
 controller area network (CAN)
 universal asynchronous receiver-transmitter
(UART).
 Gives the ability to be connected to other
microcontrollers, computers, mobile gadgets, and
even within the same microcontroller.
Types of MICROCONTROLLERS:

PIC microcontroller (PIC) means peripheral


interface controller. It is a kind of microcontroller
whose components are used in the development
of electronics, computer robotics, and similar
devices.
Types of
MICROCONTROLLERS:
 ARM microcontroller (ARM) stands
for advanced reduced instruction set
computer (RISC) machine.

 It is one of the most popular


programming digital embedded
systems in the world because of its
low cost and high-performance
device.
Types of
MICROCONTROLLERS:
 The 8051 microcontroller was created by Intel
way back in 1981.
 An 8-bit microcontroller
 40 pins DIP (Dual inline package)
 4kb of read only memory (ROM)
storage
 128 bytes of random access
memory (RAM) storage and has a
216-bit timer.
 4parallel 8bit ports, which all are
programmable.
Types of MICROCONTROLLERS:

 AVR microcontroller means Alf and Vegard's RISC


Processor.
 It is a modified Harvard architecture machine, where
program and data are stored in a divided physical
memory system that is placed in different address
locations.
Types of MICROCONTROLLERS:
 MSP microcontroller, stands for Mixed Signal
Processor
 The MSP is designed for low
cost and low power
dissipation embedded
systems.
 The controller's appearance is directly related to
the 16-bit data bus and seven addressing modes.
Types of MICROCONTROLLERS:
 A microcontroller is intended to
be programmed in a specific
code or language.
 Examples of these programmed
codes are written for Arduino
microcontrollers, which use
Arduino software.
Types of MICROCONTROLLERS:

 Basic Stamp microcontrollers


use Basic program language.

 Basic Atom microcontrollers


integrate with Basic Micro
codes.
Types of MICROCONTROLLERS:

Javelin stamp from Parallax is operated by Java


for its basic programming.
Types of MICROCONTROLLERS:

 Raspberry Pi is another microcontroller that is


always compared to the Arduino.
 The Raspberry Pi is more of a computer in terms
of its processing qualities, which makes it a
lesser choice for some.
