Difference Between Microcontroller and Microprocessor Tabular explanation Microcontroller vs. Microprocessor Hello friends, in this post we will study the difference between microprocessors and microcontrollers. The first difference between MC & MP is that MP contains its Arithmetic logic unit, control unit, Random access memory, Read-only memory, and input & output ports, they are all on different circuits, which means we have to whenever MP wants to have some access to its memory and input-output ports and the serial communication port, we have to use the interfacing because all these components are not present on the single chip. In the case of MC, the memory, input & output ports, timers, counters, arithmetic, and logic unit, and control unit all are present on the single chip. There is no need for interfacing, all devices are embedded on the single-chip so they can communicate easily. The second difference we have i...
