John Doe is an engineer who has been assigned to select a microcontroller for an embedded system project. There are three types of microcontrollers, A, B & C and the maximum clock speed for each microcontroller is 16MHz, 20MHz, and 24MHz respectively. Microcontroller A divides its clock by 4 to give one machine cycle, microcontroller B by 8, and microcontroller C by 12. Microcontrollers A & C take 2 machine cycles to perform an instruction, while microcontroller B takes 3 cycles. Based on the limited information: (i) The selection of the right microcontroller is important in designing an embedded system project. Predict how John Doe made the choice? [C3, SP2] [2 marks] Manipulate the given information to verify best microcontroller in terms of performance to execute the instruction. [C3, SP4] [6 marks]
