What is processor and microprocessor

What is Processor? Define Microprocessor And its Speed.

“A processor is known as CPU (Central Processing Unit) which is the brain of the computer system that operates all the instruction in the system of input and output working and interprets the instructions and their execution in the computer.”

About the Processor and Microprocessor to learn easy with the following points to remember:-

1. The processor is the unit of the computer system.
2. It is interprets the instruction and executes programs them for output results.
 

3. We know the microprocessor is the brain of the computer system.
4. The computer system of performance of the capability is depends on the speed of the microprocessor.
5. The micro-processing speed is usually M.I.P.S. which is stands for Millions Instructions per Second.
6. The MIPS rating is used to specify the integer computation performance of a processor.
7. The micro-processing speed of a floating point computation is measured in M.F.L.O.P.S. which is stands for Millions of Floating Points Instructions per Second.
8. A microprocessor is a combination of the three unit parts:
i) Arithmetical unit
ii) Logical unit
iii) Control unit

9. It is also called (I C) Integrated Chip.
10. The microprocessor has its time clock system to processing systematically executes the programs and instructions of the input and output.
11. It works only 0 and 1 language which is called binary language.

Now we discuss some questions about the Processor and the Microprocessor:-

Q 1. The processor is known as:

i) Cache
ii) Main Memory
iii) Microprocessor
iv) CPU

Q 2.  A microprocessor is able to

i) Interprets the instructions and execute them.
ii) Executing the instructions for input.
iii) Processing the software.
iv) Hang on Dead Lock conditions.

Q3. Floating point computation speed of a microprocessor is measured in

i) M.F.L.O.P.S. (Millions of Floating Points Instructions per Second)
ii) M.I.P.S. (Millions of instructions per second)
iii) Giga Hz and Mega Hz between
iv) All of the above

Q4. M.I.P.S. stand for

i) Mega instructions per Second
ii) Mini Integrated per Second
iii) Millions Instructions per Second

iv) Micro Integrated per Second

Discuss the role played by the various components of the CPU

Q Discuss the roles played by the various components of CPU? The CPU is the brain of the computer system. All major calculations, manipulations and comparisons are made by the CPU. The CPU is also responsible for activating and controlling the operations performed by all other units of the computer system. The major components of the CPU are: a) Arithmetic Logic Unit (A.L.U.) b) Control Unit (CU) c) Primary Memory Arithmetic Logic Unit (A.L.U.): What is ALU Arithmetic logic Unit? ALU is a part of the CPU. It is a part to calculate the logical term in the CPU where the term refers to an operation of logical type. It also calculates the arithmetic terms in the CPU where the term refers to an operation of arithmetic type. It is used to direct access through the processor controller. The ALU connected to the input and output peripheral system through the bus with the different types of bus. Such as control bus, data bus etc. ALU is a part of the CPU that can calculate the input...

About the memory and its Classification of the computer Memory

What are the memories in the reference of computer system? What is Computer Memory?:- The memory is the essential for the computer to store the data, instruction and information. Without memory, computers are not be able to store data, instruction etc. The memory is an essential part of a computer system. It is require by the computer system to store information. Memory can be divided into the following two categories types: i) Primary or Main memory ii) Secondary Memory or Permanent memory In this figure I'll show the classification of the memory of computer system peripheral and architecture of organisations Primary Memory or Main memory:- i) Primary memory is the memory which is fastest memory of the computer. ii) It is a small but relatively fast storage unit that stores data and instruction which are used by the CPU (central processing unit). iii) This type or category of a memory is the main memory of the computer.It is a temporary memory and also we ...

What are the three main purpose of an operating system?

What are the three main purpose of an operating system? There are three main purpose of an operating system. 1. The first main purpose is User interface between hardware and users. 2. The second main purpose is to operate the internal parts of the computer properly and systematically using binary code system in the form of 0 and 1. 3. The third main purpose is to provide an environment for development of an application software and program to uses the hardware resources of the computer and connected to the computer parts which provides output to the user, the output from application software is very useful for users. Interface between user and hardware device  The operating system uses all types of interface such as command line interface, batch command interface and Graphical User Interface to interact with users to hardware peripheral devices through the monitor screen. Monitor has a big role making interface between hardware and users. Monitor visualization of all types ...
