my understanding is that it depends on applications.
normally 32 bits microcontroller have larger register and can thus handle more complictaed work. For example, it is easy to load larger data in 32 bits machine.
however, for small task, 16 bits microcontroller uses much less power since they have less memory.
But you can not generally say that 16 bits consumes less power than 32 bits machine, right?
it is similiar between 32 bits machine and 64 bits machine, right?
