A microcontroller is a specialized form of microprocessor
that is designed to be self-sufficient and cost-effective,
where a microprocessor is typically designed to be general
purpose (the kind used in a PC).
The difference is that microcontroller incorporates features
of microprocessor(CPU,ALU,Registers)along with the presence
of added features like presence of RAM,ROM,I\O ports,counter
etc.Here microcontroller control the operation of machine
using fixed programme stored in Rom that doesn't change with
lifetime.
