The CPU (Central Processing Unit) is the core of any computer, while the microprocessor refers to the whole functional chip that is inserted into a motherboard. The CPU is the sub architecture of the microprocessor that interprets the program instructions and cascade triggers the sub-functions of each instruction.

Give atleast 10 differences between microprocessors and CPUs?
CPU are microprocessors.
What is difference between short and near jumps in Intel Microprocessors?
difference between short,near and far jump
What is the major difference between TV and CPU?
There are lots of "major differences", as they are totally dissimilar devices with different purposes. For one, televisions are typically very large, as they must have a screen large enough to be viewable. CPUs and other microprocessors are much smaller, usually under two inches across.
Which is advanced microcontroller or micro processor..?
An advanced microprocessor is an advanced CPU, such as the Intel i3/i5/i7 CPUs. Because the CPUs keep getting thinner and thinner and smaller and smaller, they call them microprocessors, because of their size. Hope this helped! SeanHolshouser
What is the difference between a microprocessor and a Pentium processor?
Nothing, a Pentium Processor, or any other processor for that matter, is merely a brand name for different microprocessors.
What is the difference between secc and sepp CPUs?
In case someone is still watching for this answer, it is answered quite well in Wikipedia at the following link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_Edge_Processor_Package
Why does every computer have a CPU?
Microprocessors makes things easier so that you don't have to hard-code the logic directly. (which up until the invention of integrated circuits and the microprocessor everything was hard-wired) As CPUs are multipurpose microprocessors, they are able to perform a wide variety of tasks, but fall short in performance if you expect it to render graphics.
Is the CPU the same as a microprocessor?
No. While a CPU is an example of a microprocessor, many microprocessors are not CPUs, but perform other tasks to aid the CPU. An example would be the GPU of a video card, or the DSP (Digital signal processor) of a modem or sound card.
What is Difference between 8155 and 8255 microprocessor?
Neither the 8155 nor the 8255 are considered to be microprocessors. The 8155 is an integrated RAM, IO, and Timer device designed for the 8085. The 8255 is an Programmable IO controller.
What is the difference between a 64-bit operating system and a 32-bit operating system?
In simple terms, 32-bit operating systems can only be able to run on 32-bit CPUs and 32-bit apps, but a 64-bit operating system can be able to run both 32-bit and 64-bit CPUs and apps.
What is the difference between pentium 4 and core 2 quad?
The latest of the Pentium 4 processors were hyperthreaded single core CPUs, while the Core 2 is newer and faster, with more features, and the quads have 4 true cores and does not use hyperthreading. A personal rule of thumb is to consider hyperthreading as an extra half a core. So 4 CPUs on one chip/die (Core 2 quad) is more appealing then 1.5 CPUs (Pentium 4).
What is the difference between microprocessors 85 and 86?
85 is a 8 bit processor,number of flags are 5 and memory capacity is 64KB while 86 is a 16 bit processor ,number of flags are 9 and memory capacity is 1 MB.The main difference between 8085 and 8086 is that 8086 uses pipelining.
