Processors Study Notes
A
microprocessor is an integrated circuit built on a tiny piece of silicon. It
contains thousands, or even millions, of transistors, which are interconnected
via superfine traces of aluminum. The transistors work together to store and
manipulate data so that the microprocessor can perform a wide variety of useful
functions. The particular functions a microprocessor performs are dictated by
software.
Intel's first microprocessor
was the 4004. It was introduced in 1971, and contained 2,300 transistors.
Today's Pentium® 4 processor, by contrast, contains 55 million transistors.
One of the most common tasks
microprocessors perform is to serve as the "brains" inside personal computers,
but they deliver "intelligence" to countless other devices as well. For example,
they may give your telephone speed-dial and redial options, automatically turn
down your house's thermostat at night, and make your car safer and more energy
efficient.
