- A microcontroller design would be appropriate where end user need not alter the controls or using minimal controls.
- PLC’s allow end user to configure and control the application which is more useful in industries.
- Very complex controls and process like chemical industries requires more re-configurable controls.
- PLC’s with I/O(Input/Output) devices require little electrical design and programming using simple ladder diagrams which are easy to understand, very simple and customized.
- In case of mass production PLC’s are economical to build and maintenance.
- Troubleshooting is also easier compared to microcontroller.
- To know more details about the differences please give your query in comments & we will post more,

List out application advantages of Microcontroller over than PLC?
Administrator, all your arguments are very debatable. Please tell us a concrete thing that you can do with PLCs that you cannot with a uC. Additionally, please talk about the big gap in price between both, since PLCs are far more expensive than uCs.
Greetings!
plz give more breif depth idea on plc and microcontrloer role in industrg
i m in b.e mech , i m intersted to do projct in automation fr same i need to do course depending future scope in industry dependind which one plc or microcntrlr ,more demanding ,.
plz clear my doubt
The micro-controller are programming easily with help of c-language etc. but plc are hardly programming with help of Logo software etc.
