What parameters do you see when looking for the best microcontroller to do the job?

Key factors to consider when choosing a microcontroller

• Power efficiency.
• Temperature tolerance.
• Security.
• Hardware architecture.
• Processing power.
• Memory.
• Hardware interface.
• Software architecture.

What criteria do designers consider in choosing any microcontroller?

Three are the vital major criteria for selecting them. These are (a) wide availability and reliable sources (b) meeting the requirements efficiently and cost effectively (c) availability of the software development tools like compilers, Assemblers and debuggers etc [1].

Which of the following criteria for choosing a micro controller is important in terms of space assembling and prototyping the end product?

Three criteria in choosing microcontrollers are as follows: (1) meeting the computing needs of the task at hand efficiently and cost effectively, (2) availability of software development tools such as compilers, assemblers, and debuggers, and (3) wide availability and reliable sources of the microcontrbller.

How microcontroller can be used for automation and control applications?

Microcontroller is a compressed micro computer manufactured to control the functions of embedded systems in office machines, robots, home appliances, motor vehicles, and a number of other gadgets. A microcontroller is comprises components like – memory, peripherals and most importantly a processor.

What is DPTR how many bits why DPTR is having this much bits?

16-bit
The Data Pointer DPTR is meant for pointing to data. It is used by the 8051 to access external memory using the address indicated by DPTR. DPTR is the only 16-bit register available and is often used to store 2-byte values.

What is system on chip in IoT?

A system-on-a-chip (SoC) is a microchip with all the necessary electronic circuits and parts for a given system, such as a smartphone or wearable computer, on a single integrated circuit (IC). System-on-a-chip technology is used in small, increasingly complex consumer electronic devices.

What is the difference between Atmel and Microchip?

Atmel have space-saving packages for low price (MLF). Microchip only “introduce” space-saving packages, but increase price and lead-time. Microchip prices higher (for comparable devices). Microchip have a big line of old OTP devices with excellent stability. Atmel not.

What type of microcontroller should I get?

If you’re looking for a compact, straightforward method of incorporating USB connectivity into your system, I recommend that you focus on microcontrollers that incorporate a USB module. I’ve used the EFM8 Universal Bee from Silicon Labs, and Microchip offers 8-bit, 16-bit, and 32-bit USB microcontrollers.

Are the Atmel AVR’s worth it?

The Atmel AVR’s are very nice. AVR does have some advantages over the 16fXX parts but not in the sense that AVR can do things that would be impossible in a pic. AVR’s are only faster at the same clock speed (4X) due to microchips fosc/4. But a like price points, the microchip has a higher max clock speed.

What are the advantages of AVR over microchip?

AVR have much better development tools (compilers, IDE, debugging tools, etc.). Its _very_ big advantage for AVR. Atmel have space-saving packages for low price (MLF). Microchip only “introduce” space-saving packages, but increase price and lead-time.
