Microcontroller units (MCUs) are single-chip computers optimized for performing embedded computing tasks like controlling a ...

Eight-pin microcontrollers offer numerous peripheral features. However, the maximum number of I/O pins available is often limited to six, since two pins would be required for the chip's power supply.

Lots of projects use the microcontroller (uC) as the ‘brain’ – for example as an intelligent controller in the prototype of a flying machine. Although there are a number of solutions for powering a ...

Since their being revealed to our community over a year ago, the various ultra-cheap microcontrollers in the sub-ten-cent price range have attracted a lot of interest but not so many projects. Their ...

Renesas has announced five SH7263 single-chip solutions for simplifying and reducing the cost of car audio, home audio, and similar digital audio systems. Offering about 70 percent higher speed than ...

In the vast majority of cases, running a Linux-based operating system involves a pretty powerful processor with a lot of memory on hand, and perhaps most importantly, a memory management unit, or MMU.
