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 ...

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 ...

The DFPIC166X is a low-cost, high performance, 8-bit, fully static soft IP Core. The core has been designed with a special concern about low power consumption, assuring the best power use, price ...

It puts out CD-quality audio using not much more than a microcontroller. How do you get 16-bit audio out of an 8-bit microcontroller. We’ll give you a hint: two pins are used.

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 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 ...

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 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 ...

In this paper, the authors describe the digital implementation of Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation (SVPWM) technique using 8-bit microcontroller for three-phase inverter. For control of IM ...

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.

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 ...
