S3_Hardware_Microprocessors

Definition/Theory (Class Summary)
A silicon chip that a CPU contains. This is the logic part of the computer, and not only computers but also other digital devices. There are three important aspects of this:
 * Instruction set: The set of instructions that the microprocessor can execute.
 *  ** Bandwidth: ** The number of bits  processed in a single instruction.
 * **Clock Speed** ** : ** Given in megahertz ( MHz  ), the clock speed determines how many instructions per second the  processor  can  execute.
