Well these are a couple of online definitions: MicroController - a control device which incorporates a microprocessor. MicroProcessor - an integrated circuit that contains all the functions of a central processing unit of a computer. The problem with these definitions is a control device and computer are two different things, so I wonder if he is applying an engineer's perspective/definition to the 8086 even though many know the 8086 were used in the early computers. This is a bit like arguing whether a microprocessor is a microprocessor because of the inclusion or exclusion of one or more instruction sets, ie a basic intel cpu with a minimum instruction set or a xeon intel cpu with a much more extensive number of instruction sets. Or are you picking up on an AI masquerading as a blogger and have highlighted something an AI wouldnt pick up on from online technical resources?
