till now MICROCONTROLLER A microcontroller is a small and low-cost computer built for the purpose of dealing with specific tasks, such as displaying information in a microwave LED or receiving information from a televisions remote control. Microcontrollers are mainly used in products that require a degree of control to be exerted by the user. Microcontroller has a following advantage over microprocessor as it is of low cost, less power usage and it also usually consists of RAM, ROM, CPU, I/O ports. Mitrocontroller has an input device in order to get the input and ouput device (such as LED or LCD) to display the final process. Let us take an example of television. Television has an remote control as an input device and TV screen as an output device. The signal sent to the remote control is captured by the microcontroller. The microcontroller controls the channel selection, amplifier system and picture tube adjustment such as hue, brightness etc. Features of microcontrollers 1. Architectural features: Most microcontrollers built today are based on the CISC (Complex Instruction Set Computer) platform. A typical CISC microcontroller has over 80 instructions and it is quite common for the instructions to all behave quite differently. The main advantage of CISC architecture is that the instructions are macro-like, allowing the programmer to use one instruction in place of many simpler instructions.

Advanced Memory features:
a. Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory (EEPROM): Many microcontrollers use the economic EEPROM for smaller amount of memory that have frequently changeable data. This type of memory is relatively slow, and the number of erase/write cycles allowed in its lifetime is limited. b. FLASH (EPROM): Flash provides microcontrollers with a better solution than EEPROM for requirements of large amounts in non-volatile program memory. EPROM is faster and permits more erase/write cycles than EEPROM. 3. Power Management features A majority of microcontrollers usually support an operation of 3 5.5 V. As consumer goods become trendier, compact and lighter, the focus is on microcontrollers to ensure that products with less power usage are efficiently built and then used by end-users. A BLOCK DIAGRAM SHOWING ALL CONNECTIONS
Here in the above circuit, we need to rectify the 220V dc into ac
circuit because electronics works only in dc circuit and at low voltage. Now we connect the whole circuit to the microcontroller in such a manner so that we can control the work. Each comprises bulb with 220V, switch and button. So they are connected in six ways through the microcontroller. Now the input will goes through microcontroller, and microcontroller will take the decision who press the button first and than those portion will goes to switch and it glow the bulb and will display out the final output.
I have also read a few things about arduino as how it works, how the code is compiled through it and then what ouput it yields. I am still continuing with it.
