Microprocessors

A logical access assumes that the location to be read or written is contained within a linear address space, while a physical access describes the actual access to the appropriate sector, the location within the assumed linear address space must be converted into the corresponding platter, sector, and track, and the disk hardware must be instructed to access that specific location.

The CPU is housed on a silicon chip that contains millions of switches and circuits.

It has millions of Transistors

Another name for the system unit is the central processing unit. This is what is commonly referred to as a processor in a computer.

The Motorola 68030 was available in models ranging from 16 MHz to 50 MHz.

There are a number of terms relating to processor speed. The most common frequency is simply the clock frequency. There are others such as a PLL frequency that can be used to multiply the clock frequency and instruction cycle frequency that is usually lower than the basic clock frequency.

In all cases, the processor data sheet or the mother board data sheet will identify the name of the frequencies to which it refers.

This type of CPU is not sufficient to power even the most basic computer in todays world. However a Dual Care 1.2 Ghz would be a good CPU in a Tablet or Smartphone.

Some parts are made of plastic, others metals silicon(for chips), copper(for wires).

This questions is not right, try with clock memory or AMD Sempron but not both in one !

In regards to computer processors the higher the number of gigahertz the faster it is.

As far I know...Intel 8085 isz One address microprocessor.

64 bits wide

In the year 1971 bu the Intel and the name of the processor was Intel 4004

Usually memory banks made up of SRAMs or DRAMs or EPROMs consist of the storage area provided on a microprocessor. For understanding how the address space of a 20 bit address line microprocessor is organised, read about address decoding for even and odd memory addressing through SRAMs and EPROMs.

Yes. According to their website, AMD64 Dual-core performance, made for mobility.
AMD Turion™ 64 X2 dual-core mobile technology is the most advanced family of dual-core processors made for mobility - uniquely optimized to deliver better multi-tasking performance in thinner and lighter notebook designs.

On most currently available computers there is nothing that checks memory for errors. However some more expensive models use RAM modules having either a parity bit or ECC bits. Parity will detect a single bit error. ECC will correct a single bit error (the next time the location is accessed) and detect a double bit error.

The BIOS ROM might be checked by a precalculated checksum or CRC code value of the ROM image. But I don't know if this is implemented on current computers or not. The helpfulness of this is questionable as the BIOS itself would have to recalulate this checksum or CRC value on itself, if the ROM was corrupted it is possible this routine is corrupted and won't properly detect and report the error.

The Pentium is not a risk architecture.

Unlike disk storage most RAM is

Reset In:A low on this pin

1)Sets the program counter to zero.

2)Resets the interrupt enable and HLDA flip-flops.

3)Tristates the data bus,address bus nd control bus.

4)Affetcs the contents of processor's internal registers randomly.

Reset Out:This active high signal indicates that processor is being reset.This signal is synchronized to processor clock nd ir can be used to reset other devices connected in the system

No, the structures are completely different. You would have to replace everything which basically equals buying a new computer. Although i would love to see it done.I wish somebody would try it.

No. Windows 95 and 98 are tied to MS-DOS, which is closely tied to both x86 processors and instruction sets, and the BIOS found in most PCs. Windows 95/98 were never ported to another processor, since doing so would necessitate a rewrite of the lower-level components, and would miss the entire point of Windows 9x, backwards-compatibility with legacy apps, altogether.

Window NT runs directly on RISC processors such as the the PowerPC, the DEC Alpha, and the MIPS R4000.

Windows CE also runs directly on RISC processors such as the MIPS, ARM, and Hitachi SuperH processors.

Any version of Windows intended to run on an x86 processor could run inside an emulator such as Bochs, DOSBox, RealPC, Transformer for the Amiga, or some other x86 emulator.

There are several ways in which CPU speed can be measured. The most common unit is a hertz, such as 3 gigahertz. 1 hertz is another name for 1 CPS. A CPS is a Cycle Per Second. So 3 gigahertz would mean that the CPU is doing roughly 3 billion cycles per second. (A giga in computer speak means billion.)

This was the most common form of measurement during the Pentium Chip era. The last Pentium chips were reaching 3.8 gigahertz. However, you may notice that newer chips such as the Core series by Intel have much fewer hertz, but run much faster. That is because the CPU manufactures learned that there are better ways to make a CPU faster than just by increasing the hertz.

With newer CPUs they have put two or more processor cores on the same chip. These processor cores work in tandem. By working together and sharing the processing load, the overall speed of the computer is greatly improved despite the fact that they are running at slower hertz speeds.

Another way to measure the speed of a CPU is by using FLOPS (FLoating Operations Per Second). 1 FLOPS is generally considered 1 addition or multiplication operation in the processor, however FLOPS also pertain to exponential, sine and cosine. FLOPS do not have as much merit in home computing as they do in research super computers because research uses more mathematical types of computation.

It is hard to compare actual FLOPS between CPU architecture. A Graphics Card Processor (GPU) would consider an exponential 1 FLOPS while it would take many FLOPS on a normal CPU. GPUs can compare FLOPS much better than CPUs because they do use mathematical calculations for their graphics rendering.

Some basic FLOPS highpoint counts of Processors as of Jan 2010 are as follows:
Pentium 4 - 7 gigaflops
Core2 Quad - 70 gigaflops
Xbox 360 CPU - 115 gigaflops
Playstation 3 CPU [Cell Processor] - 218 gigaflops
Xbox 360 GPU - 240 gigaflops
Playstation 3 GPU - 1800 gigaflops (1.76 teraflops)
nVidia Geforce GTX 295 [top PC graphics card now] - 1788 gigaflops (1.75 teraflops)
Jaguar [top super computer now] - 1,759,000 gigaflops (1.75 petaflops)
Folding@Home Distributed Computer [as of now] - 8,500,000 gigaflops (8.10 petaflops)

8.10 petaflops is 9.11978925 x 1015 FLOPS or 9,119,789,250,000,000 mathematical operations per second!

The clock speed, architectural design, and socket types are different between these three types of processor. Making the transition to dual pipeline architecture and integrated cache happened during this as well.

In essence, these processors are basically nothing alike. They look different, behave different, perform different, and handle internal functions differently.

It can. You need to use the 32-bit rendition of Windows 7, though. The processor is a 32 bit processor, and is incompatible with 64-bit programming. windows 7 is a threaded operating system, which means a single-core processor will perform poorly in the Win7 environment. Don't be discouraged, though-- This all means little in real-world performance, and running Win7 with a Celeron should be fine!
