The CPU is made from a silicon what?

Answer 1

Most of the Semiconductor Integrated Circuits and discrete components use Silicon as base material. A number of these computer components including processors, memories, various control chips, power ICs are designed in Silicon. - Neeraj Sharma ANOTHER ANSWER: Semiconductors are typically made of some kind of silicone crystal. Silicone is called a semiconductor because silicone that has been "doped" will conduct an electric current under some specfic conditions.

Inside typical computer "chips" is a piece of silicone that has been manufactured to have the specific characteristics needed.

The interesting thing about silicone is that if it's pure it is not an electrical conductor, but if small amounts of specific impurities are added to silicone crystals (doping) the crystal can be modified to have the desired characteristics. RB

Answer 2

Yes it does.

Silicon is the basic material used to make computer chips, transistors, silicon diodes and other electronic circuits and switching devices because its atomic structure makes the element an ideal semiconductor.

Answer 3

Silicon's semi conducting property which helps in building amplifying circuits.

Answer 4

the silsicon is used for make the board known as pcb (printed circuit board ) also used to make other components too

Answer 5

the cpu is made from a silicon
