1. Research two microcontrollers and provide information about them from their datasheets.

There are several microcontroller manufacturers

which you can investigate including Atmel, Microchip, Freescale, TI, etc. For each microcontroller, report the following information. (Be sure to
include a link to an online reference where you found this information.)

Manufacturer: Silicon Labs

Microcontroller: EFM8 Busy Bee Family - EFM8BB1

Clock frequency:
Internal 24.5 MHz oscillator with ±2% accuracy
Internal 80 kHz low-frequency oscillator
External CMOS clock option

Bitwidth of the datapath:

8-bit

Size of Flash memory:

Up to 8 kB flash memory, in-system re-programmable from firmware.

Number of pins:
Up to 18 total multifunction I/O pins

Does the microcontroller contain an Analog-to-Digital Converter?

Yes

If so, how many bits of precision does it have?

12-Bit Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC)

2. Research the Arduino and Raspberry Pi platforms to determine if there are operating systems which can be used on each platform. If there
are, list those operating systems and state whether they are open source or not.
