Web: DICEWhat is a microcontroller?A microcontroller is often described asa 'computer-on-a-chip'. It can be usedas an ELECTRONIC brain to control aproduct, toy or microcontroller is an integrated circuit("chip") that contains memory (to store the program), aprocessor (to process and carry out the program) and input/output pins (to connect switches, sensors and output devices like motors).Microcontrollers are purchased 'blank' and then programmed with a specific controlprogram. This program is written on a computer and then 'downloaded' into themicrocontroller chip. Once programmed the microcontroller is built into a product tomake the product more intelligent and easier to use of a picture above shows an ELECTRONIC dice that can be made to generate a randomnumber. It can be used like a normal dice in dice works by switching Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) on and off in the pattern ofdots found on a traditional dice .
