CPU

• CPU (central processing unit) is an older term for processor and microprocessor, the central unit in a computer containing the logic circuitry that performs the instructions of a computer's programs
• CPU is the "brain" of the computer. Its function is to execute programs stored in the main memory by fetching their instructions, examining them, and then executing them one after another.

CPU
• The processor (really a short form for microprocessor and also often called the CPU or central processing unit) is the central component of the PC. It is the brain that runs the show inside the PC. All work that you do on your computer is performed directly or indirectly by the processor.

CPU

• The processor controls the entire PC, and uses dedicated control pathways called "buses" to send information between itself and the system cache, memory and other devices. These are the processor's external interfaces, which can be different even for otherwise similar CPUs.

n be packed inside a chip, and thus the more powerful is the processor.
• 3 kinds: TTL, CMOS, BiCMOS• CPUs employ CMOS and BiCMOS• Unit is micron / μm = 10-6 m• Microns is the width, in microns, of the smallest wire on the
chip. For comparison, a human hair is 100 microns thick. As the feature size on the chip goes down, the number of transistors rises.

Socket Standards
• Socket 7– Zero Insertion Force (ZIP) socket is a type
of socket designed for easy insertion of pin grid array (PGA) chips. The chip is easily dropped into the socket's holes, and a lever is pulled down to lock it in. Pulling the lever moves the top plate of the assembly, pushing the pins into their contacts.

Socket Standards• Socket 370
– Socket 370 is Intel's new plastic PGA (PPGA) ZIF motherboard socket for its line of Celeron and Pentium processors.
– more economical than the elaborate Slot 1 Pentium II system
– Socket 370 accepts a 370-pin PPGA chip package, instead of the SEC (single edge cartridge) Slot 1 package.

Socket Standards
• Socket 423 and socket 478– Designed for P4 CPUs
• Super7– A specification from AMD for PC motherboards or
single board computers that allows non-Intel CPU chips to take advantage of faster bus speeds and newer peripheral technologies. It specifies the older Socket 7 CPU receptacle and adds support for AGP, USB, Ultra ATA and the 100MHz bus

Slot Standards• Slot 1
– A 242-pin slot on the motherboard that holds Intel CPU modules including the Intel Single Edge Contact Cartridge (SECC and SECC2) and Single Edge Processor Package (SEPP).
– Slot 1 is a narrow slot like a PCI bus slot
– P2 was the first to use Slot 1

Slot Standards• Slot 2
– A 330-pin slot – Intel's Xeon chips were the first to use Slot 2– Designed for multiprocessing (SMP) systems, Slot 2 m
otherboards typically come with two slots and require a termination card if only one CPU is plugged in
– The biggest difference between Slot 1 and Slot 2, though, is that the Slot 2 design allows the CPU to communicate with the L2 cache at the CPU's full clock speed. In contrast, Slot 1 only supports communication between the L2 cache and CPU at half the CPU's clock speed.

CPU SpeedCPU speed ( 內頻 )= External clock ( 外頻 ) × Multiplier factor
( 倍頻 )
• External clock (Local Bus rate) is the working speed of the devices on the motherboard
![Page 38: 2.The Computer System](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042901/568144d8550346895db1a56e/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
CPU Speed• Setting the working frequency higher than
the PCI chipset or processor specs, may cause abnormal memory module functioning, system hangs, hard disk drive data lose, abnormal functioning of the VGA card, or abnormal functioning with other add-on cards
![Page 39: 2.The Computer System](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042901/568144d8550346895db1a56e/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
CPU Clock• Using a quartz crystal, the
CPU clock breathes life into the CPU by feeding it a constant flow of pulses.
• For example, a 200MHz CPU receives 200 million pulses per second.
• Similarly, in a communications device, the clock synchronizes the data pulses between sender and receiver.
![Page 40: 2.The Computer System](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042901/568144d8550346895db1a56e/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Working Voltage• Each CPU has its own working voltage• Normally, the higher the voltage, the larger the work do
ne, and thus CPU may hang due to the higher the temperature
• The lower the voltage, the less the electricity consumption, the lower the CPU’s temperature
• Common CPUs have double-voltage design– Vcore ( 核心電壓 ) and Vio ( 對外電壓 )
• P2, P!!! and Celeron CPUs directly send a set of Voltage Identification (VID) signals to the power supply on the motherboard
