Where is integrated circuit used?

ic's are used in CPU to perform any task. these are the combination of circuits, pathways, transistors etc.


What part of the CPU carries out the calculations?

All of it. A CPU is an integrated circuit. You need to understand electronics to fully understand how such a thing works.


What are the functions of microprocessors?

A microprocessor is responsible for all the functions of a CPU. It acts like an artificial brain and is composed of a single integrated circuit.


What was invented in 1958 that combines all parts of a computer?

If you are thinking of the Jack Kilby integrated circuit (see image above) of 1958, it was only a one transistor analog sine wave oscillator - not all parts of a computer!It was not until 1971 that Intel put a complete 4 bit CPU (the Intel 4004) on an integrated circuit - but not all parts of a computer.One of the first integrated circuits to actually put all parts of a computer on one integrated circuit was the Intel 8048 microcontroller in 1976.


What is on a microprocessor?

it is an electric device consisting of miniaturised transistor on a single semiconductor integrated circuit (IC) with a CPU a memory and input output ports it can be fascinated using VITS technique .


What are three operating systems of a computer?

operating system is microcmputer build around integrated circuit perform calculation, CPU central processing unit, chip referred to as microprocessor


What is a 4 bit microprocessor?

A 4 bit microprocessor is a device that integrates the function of the Central Processing Unit (CPU) of a computer unto one semiconductor chip or integrated circuit.


What is Central Processing Unit or microprocessor?

A CPU is the electronics that perform the instruction processing functions of a computer. It does not include any memory (except for perhaps a small set of high speed operand/result registers and/or high speed microcode ROM), memory management unit, mass data storage, or input/output devices. It does include the CU (control unit, which fetches and decodes instructions and handles interrupts/exceptions/traps) and the ALU (arithmetic logic unit). Depending on implementation technology the size of a CPU can vary from many large electronics racks to a single circuit board to a small part of an integrated circuit.a microprocessor is an electronic implementation (in a small number of integrated circuits, typically just one integrated circuit) of a CPU and often other units that improve CPU performance if they are in very close proximity to the CPU (e.g. cache memory, memory management unit).a microcontroller is an electronic implementation (in one integrated circuit) of a complete computer, but very limited computer usually programmed to control an appliance or other system.a system on a chip is an electronic implementation (in one very large integrated circuit) of a complete computer system including all external device interface circuits (some of which may be implemented as microcontrollers, etc.).


What is the feature of CPU?

The microprocessor is an integrated circuit that contains millions of transistors interconnected by small aluminum wires. The microprocessor's processing capabilities control and direct the activities of the PC by interacting with the other electronic components on the motherboard.

How do you assemble or disassemble CPU?

In early computers that were made with vacuum tubes, transistors, or simple integrated circuit chips you could do this. However since the development of the microprocessor this has become impossible, as the CPU is entirely inside one integrated circuit chip.In modern microprocessors the CPU is actually only a tiny part of that microprocessor chip, sometimes less than 1/10th of the circuits on the chip which now typically includes: memory management, input/output devices, ADCs, DACs, etc. Also multicore microprocessors contain several independent CPUs on the one chip (as many as 16 CPUs in some chips).
