• 1. Is Arduino an embedded microcontroller?

  Arduino is an embedded microcontroller platform based on open source hardware and software. ‌ It contains a microcontroller (MCU) and related modules that can interact with the external environment through hardware and software. The core board of Arduino consists of a microcontroller and related modules, with basic input and output connections and multiple communication interfaces, including serial ports, SPI and TWI, etc., which can communicate and transfer data with other devices.
  Features of Arduino include:
  Development environment: Arduino comes with a software development environment that can be programmed in C and C++ languages.
  Libraries and functions: It has a rich hardware library and functions for rapid development.
  Low cost: It is suitable for hardware development such as sensors, simple robots, thermostats and motion detectors, with low cost and simple operation.
  Wide application: It is commonly used in projects such as IoT products, automation control and robots.
  Compared with other microcontroller platforms, the advantage of Arduino is its simple and easy-to-use hardware and software tools, which enable electronic enthusiasts and general users to quickly realize various application projects.

• 2. Is Raspberry Pi a microcontroller?

  Raspberry Pi is not a microcontroller in the traditional sense. Raspberry Pi is a microcomputer, often called a single-board computer, which has more powerful computing power and more functions, including writing code directly on the device and running multiple programming languages.
  Raspberry Pi has some features of a microcontroller, such as it also has GPIO (general input and output) pins, which can control external devices through these pins. In addition, Raspberry Pi can also be used for the development of embedded systems, especially in application scenarios that require higher computing power.

• 3. What is the difference between an embedded MCU and a PLC MCU?

  The main difference between an embedded MCU and a PLC MCU is that their application fields, system architectures, and programming methods are different.
  Although both embedded MCUs and PLC MCUs involve MCU technology, their application fields are significantly different. Embedded MCUs are mainly used in non-industrial fields such as consumer electronics, automobiles, aerospace, etc. They emphasize high specificity and flexibility and can be customized according to specific needs. PLC MCUs are mainly used in industrial automation control fields, such as electricity, petroleum, chemical industry, machinery manufacturing, etc. The original design intention is to adapt to complex industrial environments and have strong stability and reliability.
  In terms of system architecture, embedded MCUs usually have fixed hardware and software configurations, are designed and developed for specific applications, and hardware and software are tightly integrated to form a complete system. PLC MCUs are based on a modular architecture, and different modules can be added to achieve different functions. Both hardware and software are standardized, which is convenient for users to select and configure.
  In terms of programming language, embedded MCUs are usually programmed in high-level programming languages ​​such as C and C++. These programming languages ​​have powerful functions and flexibility and can meet complex programming needs. PLC MCUs are mainly programmed in ladder diagram language. This graphical programming method is simple and easy to understand, which is convenient for users to get started quickly. In addition, it also supports some text programming languages, such as instruction lists and structured text.
