2. A central processing unit (CPU), generally known as
a microprocessor is an electronic circuit which
receives the input data from the software and
outputs the processed information to various units
of a computing system
There can be multiple processors on a computer
system, additional to the main processor such a
graphics processor (GPU) which assists the
processor in graphics related tasks for better
performance in functions such as gaming and video
rendering
These processors and other components which
drives the system are termed collectively as a SoC
(System on a Chip)
Basic Segments of a Processor
4. (1971)
2300 transistors &
capability of 92600
operations per second
The Intel 8008 released in 1972 was the world’s first
8-bit microprocessor
The Intel 8080 was released as a successor to the Intel
8008 in 1974 was one of the most popular
microprocessors back in the glory days of computing
history
The next major leap in computing performance came
with the 16-bit Intel 8086 processor and the slightly
improved Intel 8088 which was released in 1979 (Selected
by IBM)The Motorola 68000 was one of the
high-performance microprocessors
debuted in 1979. Selected by Apple
(1979)
In 1987, Sun Microsystems introduced the first SPARC
(Scalable Processor Architecture) based microprocessors
Intel released the first Intel Pentium series processors in
1993.These processors had a whopping 3.1 million
transistors on board and ran at a clock speed of 60Hz
The first completely home-brewed AMD K5
microprocessor was introduced in 1996
5. 28,000,000,000,000,000 nsW$ (28 Quadrillion nsW$)
10 KHz range, consumed 140kiloWatts, cost about $2M, used 18,000 vacuum
tubes, took up 15,000 square feet of space, and weighed 30 tons
6. In 2008 Intel released the first Atom series single-
core microprocessors to be used in low-cost
notebook PCs
AMD released their first mobile-centric processors in
2011 and came with the term Accelerated Processing
Units (APU)
The first Ryzen series processors were unveiled by
AMD back in 2017
In 2017, Intel also developed a 12-core desktop CPU for
high-performance mobile computing purposes. Later
Intel also released an 18-core processor.
The first Core i9 processor for laptops was released in
2018.These processors have unlocked versions, giving the
users an option to overclock them for more aggressive
performance
RYZEN
7. The Apollo Guidance Computer ran off a 2.048 MHz processor which
took the first man on to the surface of the Moon, back in 1969.
Compare that with the power of your smartphone you have in your
pocket right now !

9. Earlier, there were no separate graphical processing units for manipulating image data
on computers
This was primarily because of two reasons – most of the computers ran text-based
operating systems, or the available Graphical Processing Interface (GUI) was in 2D and
sufficient enough to be manipulated by the existing processor
As time passed by, the use of GUI became standard for operating systems and the
number of graphical elements used across the UI increased significantly
Also, the newer video codecs and games needed much more share of the computing
resources which the processor was not able to allot, leading to bottlenecked
performance
This is where integrated GPUs and later dedicated graphics processors came to the
scene.
These graphics processors take the load of manipulating pixels away from the
mainstream processor and improves the performance of the machine significantly
10. A neural processing unit (NPU) is a
microprocessor that specializes in the
acceleration of machine learning algorithms. It
is, also, known as neural processor
It is several times (10K) faster than GPUs
Some of the common real life examples of NPU
are:
▪ TPU by Google
▪ NNP, Myriad and EyeQ by Intel
▪ NVDLA by Nvidia
▪ AWS Inferentia by Amazon

14. "Big data is high volume, high
velocity, and/or high variety
information assets that require new
forms of processing to enable
enhanced decision making, insight
discovery and process
optimization."
25. 2019: Self-driving cars let human drivers relax behind the wheel
2019 – 2020: 5G connectivity becomes the norm, replacing 4G;
traveling into space becomes a leisure activity; eyewear comes
equipped with tiny displays that project into the wearer's retina
2026: Humans hand off household chores to domestic robots
2030: Displays can be embedded into human skin and powered by
the blood
2034: Manned missions to Mars begin
2036 - 2037: Materials are transported from the surface of the
earth into space using an elevator-like structure
2037 - 2038: Anti-aging drugs make us all look young and lovely
forever
