Vēl:
If circuit performance can only be changed by a change in wiring and/or components, the circuit is referred to as being hardwired.


If there are only limited things you want a circuit to do, having a hardwired circuit is a very reasonable thing to have. But if you want versatility, an ability to easily make changes in performance, some programming capability must be introduced in the circuit. A microprocessor of some type must be used. Then you can change performance via programming commands and there is no need to solder any connections or detach/attach wires. But software can be corrupted and crash. Hence, the both hardwired circuits and microprocessor controlled circuits exist in industry.
