Mikrovezérlkre

Mikrovezérlkre, often spelled "mikrokontroller" in English, refers to a small computer on a single integrated circuit (IC) containing a processor core, memory, and programmable input/output peripherals. These devices are designed for embedded applications, meaning they are integrated into a larger system to perform a specific function. Unlike general-purpose microprocessors, microcontrollers are optimized for control tasks and often operate with limited resources.

The core components of a microcontroller include a central processing unit (CPU) for executing instructions, read-only memory (ROM) or flash memory for storing program code, random-access memory (RAM) for temporary data storage, and various input/output (I/O) ports for interacting with the outside world. These I/O ports can be digital or analog, allowing the microcontroller to read sensors, control actuators, and communicate with other devices.

Mikrovezérlkre are found in a vast array of electronic devices, from household appliances like washing machines and microwaves to automotive systems, industrial automation, and consumer electronics such as remote controls and toys. Their low cost, small size, and low power consumption make them ideal for dedicated control functions where a full-fledged computer is unnecessary or impractical. Programming microcontrollers typically involves using assembly language or higher-level languages like C, compiled into machine code that the microcontroller's processor can execute.
