CPU (Central Processing Unit) is the brain of the computer. It performs calculations, executes
instructions, and manages all operations of the system. Components include Arithmetic Logic Unit
(ALU), Control Unit (CU), Registers, and Cache. CPU speed is measured in GHz and determines
performance.

The working of a CPU follows the Fetch–Decode–Execute cycle. The CPU fetches an instruction
from memory, decodes it to understand the operation, and executes it using ALU. Buses (data,
address, control) are used for communication. Multi-core CPUs allow parallel processing for
efficiency.
