Microcontroller or Microprocessor: Making the Right Choice Microprocessors have a single processing core (CPU), typically powerful enough to handle complex applications involving lots of memory.

This course introduces students to the architecture and design of Microcontrollers (MCUs), which are small processors used in a myriad of products. The main MCU components of the processor, memory, ...

This year has seen new processor architectures announced or brought to market across the processing spectrum, and evolving device families continue to deliver yet higher performance, lower cost, lower ...

(TM) family of microprocessors and microcontrollers. The new RZK is a real-time, pre-emptive, multitasking kernel that manages the use of the CPU and is designed to enable efficient processing of all ...

Toshiba's TLCS-90 incorporates the basic Z80 instruction set in an 8-bit µC with various peripherals. Unlike the Z80, which is a µP, the TLCS-90 can execute code from on-chip ROM and RAM. The µCs ...
