Abstract: Common microcontroller unit (MCU) self-identification information is disclosed. In one embodiment, an MCU is contained in a package. The MCU includes a central processing unit (CPU) and a non-volatile memory. This non-volatile memory stores information specific to the MCU and/or the package. The non-volatile memory also stores a common main program that, when executed by the CPU, accesses the information. The information enables the common main program to adapt itself to resources of the MCU and/or package that are identified in the information.
