______ is the main difference between microcontroller and microprocessor

General-purpose computers contain relatively high-performance hardware components such as fast processors, data & program storage, and require an operating system (OS). Embedded systems, on the other hand, are ______ for heavy user interaction.

Embedded systems use a group of integrated circuits or chips (ICs). One implements the central processing unit (CPU). Several implement data memory and program storage. This distributed architecture is a characteristic feature of embedded systems as the computer is spread across multiple ______ chips

______ is the main advantage of microcontroller application in embedded systems

Microcontroller is an IC chip that takes input process data according to program written in its ______ and gives output as control signal uint for controlling other machines and devices.

A microcontroller (sometimes abbreviated µC, uC or MCU) is a small computer on a single integrated circuit containing a processor core, ______, and programmable input/output peripherals.

In today's world of technology, we found Microcontrollers in almost every electronic device we uses. Almost all general purpose devices such as Digital Watches, Washing Machines, CD/DVD Players, Mobile Phones and Microwave Ovens works on the bases of ______.

Microprocessor consists of only a Central Processing Unit, whereas Micro Controller contains a CPU, ______, I/O all integrated into one chip.

The microprocessor is useful in Personal Computers whereas Micro Controller is useful in an ______ system.

An embedded system is a system that has software embedded into computer-hardware, which makes a system dedicated for an application(s) or specific part of an application or product or part of a larger ______.

An embedded system is one that has a dedicated purpose software embedded in a computer ______.

Embedded Systems are the electronic systems that contain a microprocessor or a microcontroller, but we do not think of them as ______– the computer is hidden or embedded in the system.

It is a dedicated computer based system for an application(s) or product. It may be an independent system or a part of large ______.

Embedded Systems are the electronic systems that contain a ______ or a microcontroller, but we do not think of them as computers– the computer is hidden or embedded in the system.
