【正文】 he main difference.MCU is through running, and can be modified. Through different procedures to achieve different functions, in particular special unique features, this is another device much effort needs to be done, some great efforts are very difficult to do. A not very plex functions if the 5039。s with the United States developed 74 series, or the 6039。s CD4000 series of these pure hardware buttoned, then the circuit must be a large PCB board! But if the United States if the 7039。s with a series of successful SCM market, the result will be a drastic change! Only because SCM program written by you can achieve high intelligence, high efficiency and high reliability!As the microcontroller on the costsensitive, so now the dominant software or the lowest level assembly language, which is the lowest level in addition to more than binary machine code language, and as so low why is the use? Many highlevel language has reached the level of visual programming Why is not it? The reason is simply that there is no home puter as a single chip CPU, not as hard as a mass storage device. A visualization of small highlevel language program which even if only one button, will reach tens of K of size! For the home PC39。s hard drive in terms of nothing, but in terms of the MCU is not acceptable. SCM in the utilization of hardware resources to be very high for the job so although the original is still in the pilation of a lot of use. The same token, if the giant puter operating system and applications run up to get home PC, home PC, also can not afford to.Can be said that the twentieth century across the three power era, that is, the age of electricity, the electronic age and has entered into the puter age. However, this puter, usually refers to the personal puter, referred to as PC. It consists of the host, keyboard, monitor and other ponents. Another type of puter, most people do not know how. This puter is to give all kinds of machinery, intelligent single chip (also known as microcontroller). As the name suggests, this puter system took only a minimal integrated circuit, can be a simple operation and control. Because it is small, usually hidden in the charged mechanical stomach in. It is in the device, like the human brain plays a role, it goes wrong, the whole plant was paralyzed. Now, this microcontroller has a very broad field of use, such as smart meters, realtime industrial control, munications equipment, navigation systems, and household appliances. Once all kinds of products were using SCM, can serve to upgrade the effectiveness of products, often in the product name preceded by the adjective intelligent, such as intelligent washing machines. Now some technical personnel of factories or other amateur electronics developers to engage in out of certain products, not the circuit is too plicated, that function is too simple and can easily be copied. The reason may be stuck in the product did not use a microcontroller or other programmable logic device.Computer systems development has obviously grow in three directions。 these three directions are: Mega, monolithic, network. To solve plex puting and highspeed data processing system is still superputer at work, as such, superputer in the current moving in high speed and processing power of direction. SCM in appearance, Intel Corporation gave its name to the embedded single chip microcontroller (embedded microcontroller). The most obvious advantage of SCM is that can be embedded into a variety of instruments, equipment. This is the superputer and the Internet can not do.Introduce the latest technological advances SCM, including digital single chip technology and techniques, fuzzy microcontroller technology and technology, the reliability of microputer technology, as well as the MCU as the core embedded systems.中文譯文單片機也被稱為微控制器（Microcontroller Unit），常用英文字母的縮寫MCU表示單片機，它最早是被用在工業(yè)控制領(lǐng)域。單片機由芯片內(nèi)僅有CPU的專用處理器發(fā)展而來。最早的設(shè)計理念是通過將大量外圍設(shè)備和CPU集成在一個芯片中，使計算機系統(tǒng)更小，更容易集成進復(fù)雜的而對體積要求嚴(yán)格的控制設(shè)備當(dāng)中。INTEL的Z80是最早按照這種思想設(shè)計出的處理器，從此以后，單片機和專用處理器的發(fā)展便分道揚鑣。 早期的單片機都是8位或4位的。其中最成功的是INTEL的8031，因為簡單可靠而性能不錯獲得了很大的好評。此后在8031上發(fā)展出了MCS51系列單片機系統(tǒng)?；谶@一系統(tǒng)的單片機系統(tǒng)直到現(xiàn)在還在廣泛使用。隨著工業(yè)控制領(lǐng)域要求的提高，開始出現(xiàn)了16位單片機，但因為性價比不理想并未得到很廣泛的應(yīng)用。90年代后隨著消費電子產(chǎn)品大發(fā)展，單片機技術(shù)得到了巨大提高。隨著INTEL i960系列特別是后來的ARM系列的廣泛應(yīng)用，32位單片機迅速取代16位單片機的高端地位，并且進入主流市場。而傳統(tǒng)的8位單片機的性能也得到了飛速提高，處理能力比起80年代提高了數(shù)百倍。目前，高端的32位單片機主頻已經(jīng)超過300MHz，性能直追90年代中期的專用處理器，而普通的型號出廠價格跌落至1美元，最高端[1]的型號也只有10美元。當(dāng)代單片機系統(tǒng)已經(jīng)不再只在裸機環(huán)境下開發(fā)和使用，大量專用的嵌入式操作系統(tǒng)被廣泛應(yīng)用在全系列的單片機上。而在作為掌上電腦和手機核心處理的高端單片機甚至可以直接使用專用的Windows和Linux操作系統(tǒng)。 單片機比專用處理器更適合應(yīng)用于嵌入式系統(tǒng)，因此它得到了最多的應(yīng)用。事實上單片機是世界上數(shù)量最多的計算機?，F(xiàn)代人類生活中所用的幾乎每件電子和機械產(chǎn)品中都會集成有單片機。手機、電話、計算器、家用電器、電子玩具、掌上電腦以及鼠標(biāo)等電腦配件中都配有12部單片機。而個人電腦中也會有為數(shù)不少的單片機在工作。汽車上一般配備40多部單片機，復(fù)雜的工業(yè)控制系統(tǒng)上甚至可能有數(shù)百臺單片機在同時工作！單片機的數(shù)量不僅遠超過PC機和其他計算的總和，甚至比人類的數(shù)量還要多。 單片機又稱單片微控制器,它不是完成某一個邏輯功能的芯片,而是把一個計算機系統(tǒng)集成到一個芯片上。相當(dāng)于一個微型的計算機，和計算機相比，單片機只缺少了I/O設(shè)備。概括的講：一塊芯片就成了一臺計算機。它的體積小、質(zhì)量輕、價格便宜、為學(xué)習(xí)、應(yīng)用和開發(fā)提供了便利條件。同時，學(xué)習(xí)使用單片機是了解計算機原理與結(jié)構(gòu)的最佳選擇。 單片機內(nèi)部也用和電腦功能類似的模塊，比如CPU，內(nèi)存，并行總線，還有和硬盤作用相同的存儲器件，不同的是它的這些部件性能都相對我們的家用電腦弱很多，不過價錢也是低的，一般不超過10元即可......用它來做一些控制電器一類不是很復(fù)雜的工作足矣了。我們現(xiàn)在用的全自動滾筒洗衣機、排煙罩、VCD等等的家電里面都可以看到它的身影！它主要是作為控制部分的核心部件。 它是一種在線式實時控制計算機，在線式就是現(xiàn)場控制，需要的是有較強的抗干擾能力，較低的成本，這也是和離線式計算機的（比如家用PC）的主要區(qū)別。 單片機是靠程序運行的，并且可以修改。通過不同的程序?qū)崿F(xiàn)不同的功能，尤其是特殊的獨特的一些功能，這是別的器件需要費很大力氣才能做到的，有些則是花大力氣也很難做到的。一個不是很復(fù)雜的功能要是用美國50年代開發(fā)的74系列，或者60年代的CD4000系列這些純硬件來搞定的話，電路一定是一塊大PCB板！但是如果要是用美國70年代成功投放市場的系列單片機，結(jié)果就會有天壤之別！只因為單片機的通過你編寫的程序可以實現(xiàn)高智能，高效率，以及高可靠性！ 由于單片機對成本是敏感的，所以目前占統(tǒng)治地位的軟件還是最低級匯編語言，它是除了二進制機器碼以上最低級的語言了，既然這么低級為什么還要用呢？很多高級的語言已經(jīng)達到了可視化編程的水平為什么不用呢？原因很簡單，就是單片機沒有家用計算機那樣的CPU，也沒有像硬盤那樣的海量存儲設(shè)備。一個可視化高級語言編寫的小程序里面即使只有一個按鈕，也會達到幾十K的尺寸！對于家用PC的硬盤來講沒什么，可是對于單片機來講是不能接受的。 單片機在硬件資源方面的利用率必須很高才行，所以匯編雖然原始卻還是在大量使用。一樣的道理，如果把巨型計算機上的操作系統(tǒng)和應(yīng)用軟件拿到家用PC上來運行，家用PC的也是承受不了的。 可以說，二十世紀(jì)跨越了三個“電”的時代，即電氣時代、電子時代和現(xiàn)已進入的電腦時代。不過，這種電腦，通常是指個人計算機，簡稱PC機。它由主機、鍵盤、顯示器等組成。還有一類計算機，大多數(shù)人卻不怎么熟悉。這種計算機就是把智能賦予各種機械的單片機（亦稱微控制器）。顧名思義，這種計算機的最小系統(tǒng)只用了一片集成電路，即可進行簡單運算和控制。因為它體積小，通常都藏在被控機械的“肚子”里。它在整個裝置中，起著有如人類頭腦的作用，它出了毛病，整個裝置就癱瘓了?，F(xiàn)在，這種單片機的使用領(lǐng)域已十分廣泛，如智能儀表、實時工控、通訊設(shè)備、導(dǎo)航系統(tǒng)、家用電器等。各種產(chǎn)品一旦用上了單片機，就能起到使產(chǎn)品升級換代的功效，常在產(chǎn)品名稱前冠以形容詞——“智能型”，如智能型洗衣機等?，F(xiàn)在有些工廠的技術(shù)人員或其它業(yè)余
