Abstract

A microcontroller is a compact integrated circuit designed to govern a specific operation in an embedded system. A typical microcontroller includes a processor, memory and input/output (I/O) peripherals on a single chip. Sometimes referred to as an embedded controller or microcontroller unit (MCU), microcontrollers are found in vehicles, robots, office machines, medical devices, mobile radio transceivers, vending machines and home appliances among other devices. A microcontroller's processor will vary by application. Options range from the simple 4-bit, 8-bit or 16-bit processors to more complex 32-bit or 64-bit processors. Common MCUs include the Intel MCS-51, often referred to as an 8051 microcontroller, the AVR microcontroller, the programmable interface controller (PIC) from Microchip Technology; and various licensed ARM microcontrollers.In this paper we discuss about the advantages and applications of Renesas RL78 microcontroller.Renesas RL78 microcontrollers consists of both general-purpose and application-specific devices. These increasingly popular MCUs make possible ultralow-power applications by giving system designers advanced power-saving features and high-performance operation.
