What is the CPU ?
The CPU is short for the Central
Processing Unit.
It is the main part of the computer where
instructions are processed.
The central processing unit includes the
main memory.
Now a day's most computers have more
than one CPU to provide better speed.
CPU Definition :
CPU comes from "Central Processing Unit." The CPU is the
primary component of a computer that processes
instructions.
It runs the operating system and applications, constantly
receiving input from the user or active software programs.
It processes the data and produces output, which may be
stored by an application or displayed on the screen.
Where CPU is located in the computer?
This CPU is placed on the CPU socket center around the VRM section of
the motherboard connected with the other hardware elements inside the
computer cabinet. The CPU is a square shape chip in view, consisting of a
thin layer of thousands of transistors.
CPUs are made so that microscopic transistors could place in a
single microcomputer chip in the number of billions.
What is the Function of CPU in Computer?
The main function of CPU in the computer is to store and process by performing all the
mathematical and logical calculations with the input data to provide the output data to the
users, thereby working on the computer.
The function of CPU in 4 Steps:
1. The CPU receives the data when the computer inputs the data through input
devices such as a keyboard or mouse.
2. After this, the CPU process these input data by performing calculations and technical
algorithm.
3. And then CPU provides the processed data through output devices such as on
the monitor screen.
4. The CPU also stores the process data in the form of a cache for future use.
How CPU Works ? Since creation and
development,
improvement of the CPU,

are the fundamental
functions of the CPU. Let us
know the function of each of
them in detail.

How CPU Works ?
It processes instructions that it gathers from decoding the code in programs and other such files .
A CPU has four primary functions:
1. Fetch: Retrieves the instruction that it needs to run from program memory.
2. Decode: Breaks the code down to Machine code.
3. Execute: Calculate extremely complicated mathematical functions and move data from one
memory location to another.
4. Store : Takes the output and writes it into the computer’s memory
