CPU(Central Processing Unit)
• Three typical components of a CPU are:
• The control unit, which extracts instructions from memory and decodes
and executes them, calling on the ALU when necessary.
5
CPU(Central Processing Unit)
The transistor functions as micro switch that can simulate the two binary
states (0 and 1).

History of CPU
• The CPU's have for years doubled their performance about every 18
months, and there are no indications that this trend will stop.
• The CPUs have their roots to Intel’s chip 4004 from 1971.
• This CPU was capable of executing between 46, 250 – 92, 500
instructions per second.
• For comparison, ENIAC, the first electronic computer built just 25 years
earlier could only execute 5, 000 instructions a second.
• But what made the 4004 so powerful wasn’t just its 1800% increase in
processing power.
• It only consumes 1 watt of electricity, but ENIAC consumes 140, 000 watt
and 27 ton weight

desktop processor

• Intel processor series: a series of processors in the line. Processors
are being improved, several series in the processor lines have been
developed.
• In the line of core processors, there are such a series of processors. i3,
i5, i7 i9, m, x
• KF – Product line suffix. This reflects the features of the processor, such as
a processor for a desktop computer or laptop, power consumption, and
more.

Types of CPU
– Single-core CPU
– Dual-core CPU
– Quad-core CPU
– Octa-core processors
– Deca-core processor
34
Single-core CPU
• Oldest CPU
35
Dual Core CPU
• Capable of multitasking.
• For Example, if you are doing two tasks at the same time such as listen
music and playing game then on processor can handle one task music
and other can handle the game.

7 AMD vs. Intel
• For many years, Intel was always the leading brand for processors
but now a new challenge has risen from AMD.
• These now leading top two processor brands are competing for the
best and new devices to sell to their customers who want best
performance and quality.
41
CPU Sockets and Slots
• Intel and AMD have created a set of socket and slot design for their
processors.
42
CPU Sockets and Slots
• Most PCs and a variety of server systems have CPU sockets. Some
laptops and certain types of servers do not use a CPU socket but a totally
different processor style. Generally, CPU socket platforms are keyed for
correct insertion.
• Modern CPU sockets and processors are based on PGA (Pin Grid Array)
architecture.
• It is basically a square with pins that are organized below the packaging.
• Pins are spaced app. 0.1 inches (2.54 mm) apart to cover a portion or
entire underside of the package.
43
CPU Sockets and Slots
• Chips with high numbers of pin-outs often use land grid array (LGA) or
zero insertion force (ZIF) sockets.
• LGA sockets apply firm force with a surface plate, and ZIF socket apply
compression force with a handle.
Assignment Two
• List and discuss the different types of CPU Sockets and Slots in modern
PCs?

Upgrading CPUs
To Remove a CPU
• Push down on each clip, then angle the clip away from the fastener.
Once both clips are unfastened, unhook them from the opposite end of
the heat sink.
• Carefully lift the heat sink away from the CPU and out of the lever.
• Make sure that the CPU does not remain attached to the bottom of the
heat sink when you lift it out.
• The fan moves the heat away from the heat sink.

Upgrading CPUs …
Steps to install
1. Align the CPU so that the Connection 1 indicator is lined up with Pin 1
on the CPU socket.
2. Place the CPU gently into the socket.
3. Close the CPU load plate and secure it by closing the load lever and
moving it under the load lever retention tab.
4. Line up the heat sink/fan assembly retainers to the holes on the
motherboard.
5. Place the heat sink/fan assembly onto the CPU socket, being careful
not to pinch the CPU fan wires.
6. Tighten the heat sink/fan assembly retainers to secure the assembly in
place.
7. Connect the heat sink/fan assembly power cable to the header on the
motherboard
48
Jumper Settings
• If the CPU upgrade increases the processor speed, you must change the
setting of Jumpers.
• If you install a faster processor, you must add a jumper, which is supplied
in the box with the CPU.
