So you want to build an embedded Linux system? (2020)
I have issues with the section "Microcontroller vs Microprocessor: Differences"<p>Microprocessors are just the CPU, usually with the system bus wired out. Microcontrollers are combined systems, which include a processor and usually some kind of firmware storage and RAM. You can usually differentiate them by whether their pins are address/data lines or gpio-like.<p>> microprocessors have a memory management unit<p>The 8086 didn't. Having an MMU seems unrelated to the MCU/MPU distinction...<p>At least, this was my knowledge until now. Is this like "crypto" where the meaning changed while i was not paying attention?
