WHAT IS MICROPROCESSOR??

MICROPROCESSOR
A microprocessor incorporates the functions of a computer's central processing unit(CPU) on a single integrated circuit (IC) or at most a few integrated circuits. The microprocessor is the heart of any normal computer. If the computer without microprocessor, the computer can not operate. The speed of a microprocessor is measured in megahertz, or cycles per second. Microprocessors operate on numbers and symbols represented in the binary numeral system.

HOW IT WORKS ?
It is in charge of processing data. The way it will process data will depend on the program. The program can be a spreadsheet, a word processor or a game. It just follows the orders contained inside the program.

EXAMPLE

WHAT IS MICROCONTROLLER??

MICROCONTROLLER
A micro controller is an electronic device that generally consists of a microprocessor, a memory unit in the form of random access memory (RAM) and Read Only Memory (ROM), various timers and input/output serial and parallel ports all integrated on a single chip. A microcontroller can be programmed to do a variety of functions according to the requirement of the system known as embedded system.

HOW IT WORKS ?
Microcontrollers are "embedded" inside some other device (often a consumer product) so that they can control the features or actions of the product. Microcontrollers are dedicated to one task and run one specific program. The program is stored in ROM (readonly memory) and generally does not change. A microcontroller takes input from the device it is controlling and controls the device by sending signals to different components in the device.

Intel Pentium III

HISTORY

HOW IT ALL GOT STARTED??

MICROPROCESSO R
The development of the first microprocessor began in 1969 when a Japanese calculator maker -Busicom- asked Intel to design a set of 12 custom logic chips for a line of programmable calculators.

Marcian E. Hoff Electrical Engineer, Inventor


In 1968 he joined the Intel Corporation

father of the microprocessor.

Marcian E. "Ted" Hoff- recognized that the integrated circuit technology of the day had advanced enough to build a single chip,which could be programmed to run any of busicoms calculators. Hoffs insight led him to formulate the worlds first microprocessor architecture, the Intel 4004. "Federico Faggin joined Intel to turn Hoff's vision into a silicon reality. In less than one year, Faggin and his team delivered the 4004, which was introduced in November, 1971."

Ted Hoff (formulated first microprocessor architecture in 1969) Federico Faggin (designed the first microprocessor and delivered it to market in 1970-1971).

MICROCONTROLLER
Gary Boone and Michael Cochran creates the first microcontroller in 1971 which went commercial in 1974. the microcontroller is designed to be all of that in one. It saves the time and space needed to design a device.
