Introduction to Computer Processor
 A machine that processes something is a processor.
 An electronic circuit which executes computer
programs, containing a processing unit and a control in
computer CPU processes the machine.
 A central Processing unit is the hardware within a
computer system which carries out the instructions of a
computer program by performing the basic arithmetical,
logical, and i/o operations of the system.
Components of a processor
Two typical components of cpu:
 The alu performs arithmetic and logical operations.
 The cpu extracts instructions from the memory and
decodes and executes them,
 Calling on the alu when necessary.
 The cpu is comprises of several components that
executes specific functions.
1. Execution unit
2. Branch predictor
3. Floating point unit
4. Primary cache
5. Bus interface
6. Processor clock

History of processor
 1960 cpu by ibm
 By the end of the 1970s technology had reached the point
where CPUs could be commercially produced and were the
size of a fingernail.
 During the 1980s, CPUs became a
standard components in consumer electronic &could be found
in camera, tv and pocket calculator etc...
By the next decade, due to small size & chip cost the CPU
allowed computer to cross over from the industry to home.
 Today, engineers are making them even smaller and more
Microprocessor
 Fabrication of ALU unit & control unit in a single IC package is
known as microprocessor and is known as the brain of
computer.
 It’s the example of sequential digit logic as it has internal
memory.
 It includes:-
 Control unit
 Alu
 I/O unit
 Register unit
 Memory unit
• Type of Microprocessor designed
1. 8-bit design
2. 12-bit design
3. 16-bit diesgn
4. 32-bit design
5. 64-bit design
Concept of GENERATION
 The term Generation is applied to Intel
processor to mean new and significant
developments in processor
architecture or function.
 And all intel team is ultimately the one
deciding the names 2nd, 3rd ,4th and so
on generation.
4th Generation Intel Core
Processor & Advantages
 4th Generation Intel Core processor, more
advanced, faster and new line of low-power
processor, have arrived in 2013, aims to set
a new standard for mobile computing
experience and innovative Ultrabook, and
tablets designs
Intel i3 processor.
 The only question I have is if there's any
advantage to using a Core i3 over a
Core2Duo.
 The Core i3 is a 3.2 GHz dual core chip,
and it's quite a big improvement over the
Core2Duo. It's a good 700 MHz faster,
much faster bus with significantly faster
RAM.
 The first Core i3 processors were launched
on January 7, 2010.

 The Core i3 is a 3.2 GHz dual core chip,
and it's quite a big improvement over the
Core2Duo.
 It's a good 700 MHz faster, much faster
bus with significantly faster RAM.
 Uses less heat and energy than earlier
processors, which is always a good thing in
this day and age.

I3 over core 2 duo.
Intel i5 processor.
 I5 provides the opportunity to the users to
use the system with multi tasking.
 A big feature of the I5 processors is that they
have ability to run two multitasking
processors together that are generally called
as dual processors and can increase the
working performance of the system efficiently.
 Turbo boost technology of I5 processors is
the key beneficial feature of the I5 processors
that allow the users to do their regular and
important working with the help of heavy
applications.
Features of i5 processor.
 I5 processors have ability to work with integrated memory
and can enhance the performance of the applications. The
increase the memory up to 1333 MHz
 as I5 processors have high speed performing rate so they are
able to perform at the maximum CPU rate of 3.6 GHz
 turbo technology is present in the device that boost up the
working speed of the computational systems
 It provides the 64 bit architecture for the users for the reliable
working.
 Micro architecture for the I5 processors was presented by the
Nehalem and these processors have a cache rate up to 8
MB.

i5 over i3.
 This is the mid-size processor of this bunch, recommended
for those who demand a little speed, but not quite enough
where the user will be able to run intensive applications.
 As with the Core i3 processor, this comes with 2-4 cores, the
main difference is that it has a higher clock speed than the
Core i3.
 This is also a heat and energy efficient processor, but it does
seem to be better at this particular job than the Core i3.
 The number of threads used in this is no different than the
Core i3 with 2-4 threads , it also uses hyper threading
technology for a boost in performance.
 The cache of the Core i5 is bigger than the Core i3.
 The Core i5 is in turbo mode is made available, this provides
users with the opportunity to turn off a core if it’s not being
utilized.
Intel i7 processor.
 Intel developed different types
processors for the users for the sake of
faster working as compared to the
previous versions. After the development
of I3 and I5 processor Intel introduces a
new version i.e. I7 processor that is
comparatively faster than the old ones.
Basically I7 processors were designed to
meet the challenges of the intelligent and
the faster working performance of the
computer system. They were designed in
2008 and were announced in 2009 just
after the I5 processors.
Feature of i7 processor.
 With the help of I7 processors users can enjoy the high speed
working with the additional feature of the multitasking i.e.
using two different documents or the files at the same time.
 Dual core technology is also a part of I7 processors that
provide reliable and high data rate working performance to
the customers.
 A big feature of the I7 processors is the Turbo Boost
technology. This technology provides the high performance to
the system to the users to overcome the work load of different
applications on the system and maintain the speed of the
system.
 Like I5 and I3 processors I7 also have a feature of Hyper
threading technology enhances the activity and the speed of
the system by managing the multitasking, work load and
different types of heavier applications of the users.
 I7 processors are so advanced to deals with the integrated
memory of e system and have ability to increase the memory
up to 1066 Mbits and provide the working speed of 25.6
GB/sec.

i7 over i5.
 This is for the users that demand power,
 The cache on this one is for the users that
demand more cache memory.
 The cache on this one is 4-8 MB.
 This processor comes with 8 threads,
definitely enough to get the job done quickly,
maybe even at the speed of light. And yes it
also utilizes hyperthreading technology.
 You will have four cores to take advantage of
with this particular series.
 And just like the other ones in this Intel series
of processors, it is more energy efficient and
produces less heat.
Thank You
