Microprocessor Basics for Students

This document provides an introduction to microprocessors and microcontrollers. It discusses the basic components of a microcomputer system including the CPU, address bus, data bus, control bus, RAM, ROM, and I/O devices. It also explains the differences between microprocessors and microcontrollers, noting that microcontrollers have integrated RAM, ROM, I/O ports and other peripherals, making them more self-contained and suitable for applications where cost and space are critical factors. The document outlines the generations of microprocessors and their associated data sizes of nibbles, bytes, words and long words.

• Make the system bulkier and much more expensive which cost and space are critical.
• Have the advantage of versatility on the amount of • In many applications, the space it takes the power it
RAM, ROM, and I/O ports consumes, and the price per unit are much more
critical considerations than the computing power.
