    Well, Micro controller is a complete system in itself. It has flash memory, RAM, timers etc in itself.

    A microprocessor has only the internal registers and nothing else in itself. You've to interface the memory and all the other circuitry to get it working.

    That's the difference. In essence, a micro controller is a microprocessor with built in supporting circuitry. Hope it's clear!!

    A microcontroller is a microproccessor with inbuilt functionalities such that it can be used on its own to control stuff. Mostly used for systems not requiring that much memory.

    Microprocessor is a general purpose processor without memory you have to attach externally.
    Microcontroller has an internal memory built in it.
