CPU - Central Processing Unit: Pronounced as separate letters‚ CPU is the abbreviation for central processing unit. Sometimes referred to simply as the central processor‚ but more commonly called processor‚ the CPU is the brains of the computer where most calculations take place. In terms of computing power‚ the CPU is the most important element of a computer system. On large machines‚ the CPU requires one or more printed circuit boards. On personal computers and small workstations‚ the CPU is

The History of Intel Processor The Intel processor went thru a rapid evolution beginning in the early seventies. Intel founders Gordon Moore and Robert Noyce invented the microprocessor in 1971. Microprocessors were created to handle large amounts of data at the microscopic level while microcontrollers were computers on chips made to control real time events. Intel shifted its focus to microprocessors in the early 1980s. Since then‚ it has maintained its image as maker of the world’s fastest chips
