The key limitation is that they do not contain a slot for a [[item:hard_disk_drive|Hard disk drive]], and rely solely on a programmed [[item:eeprom|EEPROM]] for specific functionality. | + | Microcontrollers are more restrictive versions of Computers. The key limitation is that they do not contain a slot for a [[item:hard_disk_drive|Hard disk drive]], and rely solely on a programmed [[item:eeprom|EEPROM]] for specific functionality. They can **not** interact with external components! |
| Microcontrollers can be built by placing a [[item:microcontrollercase|Microcontroller case]] in an [[block:assembler|Assembler]]. Higher tier [[item:microcontrollercase|Microcontroller cases]] can take more components and upgrades (as well as higher tier components and upgrades). Microcontrollers take a limited subset of upgrades, and do not contain Upgrade or Card container slots. [[item:graphics_card|Graphics cards]] cannot be placed into the expansion slots either. | Microcontrollers can be built by placing a [[item:microcontrollercase|Microcontroller case]] in an [[block:assembler|Assembler]].
