Hello rishi,
Just like a computer which take the input process them and then give the output.
Same with microcontroller. It works like a mini computer which take the input process it and then give the output for what you programmed it.
It's a programmable IC which is programmed generally in assembly language(*.asm) file.A micro controller will act as program it. It also have some inbuilt memory inside.
.
Correct me if i am wrong. -

Microcontrollers have everything needed in one chip to work by themselves.
Microprocessor, program memory (firmware), data memory, and peripheral devices like serial communications, USB, timers/counters, etc.
You will find these in microwaves, washing machines, stereos, refrigerators, electronically controlled tools, automotive electronic modules, etc.
