Microprocessors - MPU
Microprocessors are computer processors that incorporate the main functions of CPU on a single or integrated circuit. They are multipurpose, digital, register-based, and clock-driven circuits that use binary data for input. Microprocessors process data according to memory-stored instructions before releasing them as outputs. They get input from various sources (or devices), process these, and turn them into the expected end result. Read More
Microprocessors perform a variety of functions, including logic and arithmetic operations (i.e. subtracting, transferring, comparing, and adding numbers). Basically, they are logic chips and act as the computer’s engine or brain. Every time a user turns on the computer, microprocessors start working. Thus, they can be told or instructed what to do.
Categories
There are four main microprocessor categories according to function: for general purpose computing, in handheld devices, for certain appliances, and microprocessors for supercomputers or high-performance computing.
- Microprocessors for general purpose computing are the ones ideally used on laptops and desktops.
- Microprocessors in handheld devices are those that are used in tablets, smartphones, and other portable devices. These processors are made to be powerful so they can be at par with the regular desktop or laptop computer. Most mobile devices have 4k recording and virtual reality capabilities as they’re equipped with a GPU or graphics processing unit.
- Microprocessors intended for home appliances are those that are created for navigation systems, high-definition TV, wireless communications, optical disc drives, and consumer multimedia products, among others. Cars, gaming, and smart home devices use microprocessors.
- Microprocessors that are ideal for high performance computing are for more complex devices, like supercomputers. These complex computers are essential elements in fields or areas like climate research, quantum mechanics, physical stimulations, and weather forecasting.
Microprocessors are also categorized as CISC or Complex Instruction Set Computer and RISC or Reduced Instruction Set Computer.
