Unit 15 Microcontroller and Its Application Technical Terms microcontroller integrated circuits 单片机集成电路 read only memory 只读存储器 random access memory（RAM） 随机存取存取器 arithmetic and logic 计算和逻辑 Questions for text discussion: What does a microcontroller integrated circuit comprise? What does VLSI stand for? Why can the microcontroller be tested independently of the application program? Text A microcontroller integrated circuit comprises a processor core which exchanges data with at least one data processing and/or storage device. It is the application program, i. e. the program which is executed by the microcontroller, which determines the overall operation of the microcontroller system. In most current applications the application program is too large to be held in the microcontroller and is therefore stored in a memory external to the microcontroller. One object of the invention is to overcome these various drawbacks of the prior art. Another object of the invention is to provide a microcontroller integrated circuit which can accurately locate the defective component or components of a system using the microcontroller in the event of dysfunction of the system. A further object of the invention is to provide a microcontroller integrated circuit which avoids the need for direct action on the microcontroller-based system to change the application program, whilst remaining standard as regards the type of memory component with which it can be used in a system.
