Consider two microprocessors having 8 and 16bit wide external data buses respectivelyThe two processors are identical other wise and their bus cycles take just as longsuppose all instructions?

During a single bus cycle, the 8-bit microprocessor transfers one byte while the 16-bit microprocessor transfers two bytes. The 16-bit microprocessor has twice the data transfer rate.

What AMD microprocessors are equivalent to various Intel microprocessors?
The easiest way to put it is that intel processors run at a constant speed like 2.3ghz and they cannot be overclocked etc. AMD processors process information in bursts so their speed fluctuates and they can be overclocked or told to go faster than what they were made to go.
What are the advantages of digital signal processor processors over conventional microprocessors?
the architeecture of dsp processors supports fast processing arrays and it allows parallel execution. it has separate program and data memories.
How many microprocessors will a small computer have?
one
Explain dual-core with reference to microprocessors?
Dual core represents two processors in a single system.Speed will be more in dual core systems.
What is the difference between Intel microprocessors and Advance Micro device processors?
Intel processors and AMD processors use a different architecture and AMD tends to be a little bit behind. Intel is working on 14nm and is currently at 22nm, while AMD just now advanced to 28nm.
What are the differences between two microprocessors?
There are thousands of microprocessors in the world. The differences between them could be extremely minute, or vast enough that they are totally unsuitable for tasks designed for the other. Please specify what two processors you want to compare if you want a more detailed answer.
What is a processors instruction set?
The set of instructions, on the CPU chip, that the computer can perform directly.
How good is a AMD Athlon microprocessor?
AMD Athlon microprocessors are the awesome. They're 6 core meaning that it's processing power is equivalent to 6 amd separate processors.
Is there a website to find the complete Intel's processor numbers list?
Yes, Answers.com has a page with a lot of info on Intel processors. http://www.answers.com/topic/list-of-intel-microprocessors
What is the requirement in MIMD?
MIMD (Multiple Instruction, Multiple Data) requires that multiple processors or computing cores concurrently execute multiple instructions on multiple sets of data. This architecture allows for parallel processing of independent tasks, improving overall system efficiency and performance. MIMD systems can be heterogeneous (different processors executing different instructions) or homogeneous (same processors executing the same instructions).
Was Apple using Intel processors smart?
It wasn't a matter of "smart" or not. It was literally a "do or die" situation. Traditional PowerPC processors simply couldn't perform any faster; the Cell processor wasn't available yet, and IBM couldn't produce the processors fast enough. Intel was the only company that could produce microprocessors in sufficient quantities to satisfy demand.
Is First generation computers did not use microprocessors true?
I believe its true. Computers need a processor. The early processors were made using separate components, logic gate ICs and transistors. They became MICROprocessors when all the logic gates and components were combined onto a single silicone chip, as a dedicated processor.
