The modern CPU (typically inside a microprocessor IC) is built of billions of transistors (typically complementary MOSFETs).
The CPUs of the late 1960s were built of tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of transistors inside several hundred MSI ICs (typical silicon NPN BJTs).
The CPUs of the late 1950s to early 1960s were built of thousands to tens of thousands of discrete transistors (typically germanium BJTs, gradually transitioning silicon BJTs).
The CPUs of the early 1950s did not use transistors, they were built of hundreds to tens of thousands of vacuum tubes.

∙ 6y agoTransistors do the same jobs in a modern CPU as vacuum tubes did in an early CPU, but they consume much less power and take up much much less space.

What does the base do in a transistor?
It depends on the transistor, you just have to look at the data sheet for the transistor.
What two jobs do transistors do when combined with CPU?
essentially a switch controlled by an electrical current
Transistors can be combined within the CPU to do different jobs. Give two examples of jobs they might do.?
If your still looking for the answer it is essentially a switch controlled by an electrical current.
What are metalloids in transistor radios used for?
The metalloids is combined in transistor radios to make them of high quality.
What is the composition of transistor?
probably Silicium, cause that's what CPUs ar made of, and CPU are a bunch of transistors
What do you have when two processors are combined into a single CPU together?
its,compounds
Within a CPU a transistor act as?
In a microprocessor, field-effect transistors behave as electrically-controlled switches.
In 2004 about how many jobs were available in helper positions in the trade?
Roughly as many jobs as file clerk and desk clerk jobs combined.
What is the main advantage of multiprogramming?
Multiprogramming increases CPU utilization by organizing jobs so that the CPU always has a job to execute.
What is the responsible for executing instruction to process data and consists of transistor and electronic circuits on silicon chip on the motherboard?
central processing unit(cpu)
In what jobs can you use a combined pulley?
a few jobs are people that wash windows and painters
How does the computer distinguish drive A from drive B?
Quite Simple, The CPU knows its jobs, so CPU does all of the work <~ hope that helps!
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 .
