It is called a micro-processor......a processor on a single chip
IBM based PCs
A microprocessor is a chip that serves as the central processing unit (CPU) in personal computer(PCs). it is often called a logic chip or master chip. it controls all programs and performs arithmetic calculations with great accuracy. it acts as the 'brain' of the computer. example:- Intel 4004 , Intel 8080 , Intel Pentium Pro , Pentium Microprocessor.
Central Processing Unit is the main chip of computer. CPU fetches and executes instructions. CPU consists of an Arithmetic and Logic Unit (ALU), a control unit, registers and buses.
There is no "chip" that can be replaced in the distributor, it is serviced as a unit. There is no chip in the distributor cap.

The iPad runs on Apples custom-designed silicon A4 chip. It is 1 GHz (a unit used to measure processor speed). It now also runs on iPhone 4 and iPod touch 4.
CPU - Central Processing Unit which performs logical calculations
Byte chip? disk?
Bios chip
The CPU or Central Processing Unit.
Another name for the processor chip is the central processing unit (CPU). It is the core component of a computer system responsible for carrying out instructions to execute programs and perform calculations.
A clock cycle is the low-hi-low transition of the clock. On each transition, the processor executes an instruction. It determines the speed if execution. So the faster the clock runs, the faster the chip works. This is why a Pentium 1 GHz chip is a LOT faster than a Pentium 100 MHz chip. Its unit is in Hz (or s-1) because it is a factor of frequency...
