This discussion limits its focus to low-end microcontrollers. For this purpose, we’ll stick with 8-bit devices. 8 bits simply means that internal processing only operates on 8 bits at a time. As one ...

The 8-bit microcontroller celebrated its 44th birthday this year, but even though its making its way into many new applications, some very common myths surround the elder statesman of the embedded ...

For their ECE final project, [Adam Papamarcos] and [Kerran Flanagan] implemented a real-time video object tracking system centered around an ATmega644 8-bit microcontroller.

The circuit in Figure 2 implements such a classical first-order Δ−Σ ADC using a single-supply CMOS operational amplifier, RC network, and an 8-bit PIC16C622 MCU. In this design, the integrator ...

New Microcontroller Market Research Highlights Recovery Path for Businesses from COVID-19 based on Product - 32-bit Microcontrollers, 8-bit Microcontrollers, and 16-bit Microcontrollers | Technavio.

The humble 8-bit microcontroller has a long and prosperous life ahead of it, says Ross Bannatyne of Silicon Labs If you looked up 8-bit microcontroller in a dictionary in 1995, you would find verbiage ...

The ATmega640, ATmega1280 and ATmega2560 microcontrollers come in a 100-pin housing, while the ATmega1281 and ATmega2561 devices are available in a 64-pin package. The 100-pin versions include 4 UART ...

Don’t forget to keep in mind possible future requirements and feature creep. Just because you could currently get by with an 8 bit microcontroller doesn’t mean you shouldn’t consider a 16 bit ...

[Craig] sent in a link to this project which manages to implement color tracking on an 8-bit microcontroller at 60 frames per second. That’s some pretty incredible performance, but we’r… ...

When students at Cornell University wanted to play Human Tetris (and ace a final project to boot), they taught a 20Mhz, 8-bit microcontroller how to follow their moves.
