Study Notes

Microprocessor Components

A microprocessor contains the Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU), registers, and control unit.
It integrates the entire Central Processing Unit (CPU) onto a single or a few integrated circuits.

Microprocessor Technology

Microprocessor technology is based on Integrated Circuit (IC) technology, which greatly reduced the cost of processing power.
IC technology allows for the integration of a whole CPU onto a single or a few integrated circuits.

Microprocessor Logic

Microprocessors contain digital logic, which is based on binarydecision-making (0s and 1s).

Microprocessor Input

Microprocessors accept digital data, such as binary digits (bits), as input.
Input data can be instructions, operands, or addresses.

Microprocessor Output

Microprocessors provide output in the form of processed data, results, or control signals.
Output can be sent to memory, input/output devices, or other components of the computer system.
