What is computer Processor Explained

 Welcome to Smartly Learner, processors are all about speed but what else is there to know about them in this blog we'll explain what a processor is how it works and what its main features are the processor is a chip responsible for calculations it makes all the logical decisions which are basically all the tasks your computer does from the simplest thing as opening a window to the most complex like completing a 3d animation for this reason the processor is known as the brain of the computer to understand how it works imagine this scenario we have a processor 

and next to it there is memory RAM and inputs coming from the output devices your hard drive mouse keyboard and monitor the mode of communication between them is called the motherboard it is responsible for linking the processor to all the components of your computer the processor executes three basic functions receive input data process this data and provide output data but what exactly does all this mean when you type in some text for example each letter entered is input data the processor receives this data processes it and provides the output in this case everything that you type will appear immediately on your screen all this is done in a fraction of a second there are other types of processors too which may be installed on your system but every processor contains several important features here are the main ones the socket the socket is a type of physical connection between the processor and the motherboard and it is responsible for transmitting energy to the processor the core the cores

 are responsible for the processing speed the more cores a processor has the more functions it can execute simultaneously without overloading your system the clock the clock is responsible for defining the frequency that your processor will use to execute one task its measured by Hertz this means the amount of cycles that can happen in a given amount of time in this case in seconds for example if a processor has a two gigahertz clock it can have up to two billion cycles per second so the higher your clock see is the lower the execution time will be which for you means a faster processor the cache basically the cache is the auxiliary memory of a processor where the most accessed data that will be processed is identified and then stored the processor accesses this memory and is able to execute the action faster because it's more readily available this is one more important factor that has a direct impact on the processor speed the more cache there is the more quick storage capacity you have which results in a faster speed if you have any questions or need help contact our social media support through Facebook or Twitter thanks for watching and be sure to check out other tips and tutorials on this channel see you next time
