Soc and CPU Differences

Soc (System on chip) systems on chip
The CPU includes only the operators and controllers.
An early system is a system in which a controller such as a CPU and a NAND controller, an LCD controller, is on a PCB. The CPU and these controllers are connected to each other by the bus on the PCB board, independently.
However, with the development of semiconductor technology, the above-mentioned various controllers and CPUs can be integrated together, the components with the on-chip bus and CPU connected to form a system, so called Soc.
ARM Company value provides the standard of the CPU (and also the bus), sold to the manufacturers of various manufacturing chips.
