Future Electronics, a global leading distributor of electronic components, is pleased to introduce an additional how-to video in its series on selecting the best electronic components for various applications. "How to Select the Right Microprocessor for Your Application" is now available along with many other helpful tutorials on the company's YouTube channel.

A microprocessor development board is a printed circuit board containing a microprocessor as well as the minimal support logic needed for a programmer to become acquainted with the microprocessor on the board and learn how to program it.

Microprocessor development boards can be used as a way to prototype applications in products. A development board usually contains a provision to be able to accept and run a program supplied by the user.

One advantage of a microprocessor is its speed, which is measured in hertz. For instance, a Microprocessor with 3 gigahertz is capable of performing 3 billion tasks per second. Another advantage of a Microprocessor is that it can quickly move data between the various memory locations. Microprocessors are used to perform complicated mathematical operations, like operating on the floating point numbers.

Microprocessor development boards have a wide range of applications including applications processing, digital signal control, embedded communication, embedded control, audio applications and industrial control. They can also be found in building automation, automotive, motor control, consumer and medical applications and in networking systems.

Step-by-step visuals and narration assist the viewer in understanding the basics of microprocessors, and then the process of finding the right products on the company's website is demonstrated in real time, showing how quick and easy it is to navigate the site, filtering by application, type, core supported, packaging, manufacturer and more, and find the best parts for any application.
