A CPU is an integrated circuit otherwise known as a silicon chip. Silicon chips are primarily composed of silicon (a group 4 element) which is 'doped' with a series of additives usually group 3 or group 5 elements. This 'silicon chip' is typically mounted on a metal 'lead frame' and encapsulated in a plastic or ceramic package.
