    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microprocessor

    A microprocessor is a general purpose processing entity. Several specialized processing devices have followed: A digital signal processor (DSP) is specialized for signal processing. Graphics processing units (GPUs) are processors designed primarily for real-time rendering of images. Other specialized units exist for video processing and machine ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_4040

    The 4040 was first used in a microcomputer in Intel's Intellec 4 Mod 40 development system, released in early 1975. [6] According to Byte magazine, the first third-party microcomputer designed around the Intel 4040 was the Micro 440, released by Comp-Sultants of Huntsville, Alabama, in late 1975. [7]

  4. Microprocessor chronology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microprocessor_chronology

    Processors began to have a front-side bus (FSB) clock speed used in communication with RAM and other components. Typically, the processor itself ran at a clock speed that was a multiple of the FSB clock speed. Intel's Pentium III, for example, had an internal clock speed of 450–600 MHz and an FSB speed of 100–133 MHz.

  7. Instructions per second - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instructions_per_second

    Instructions per second (IPS) is a measure of a computer's processor speed. For complex instruction set computers (CISCs), different instructions take different amounts of time, so the value measured depends on the instruction mix; even for comparing processors in the same family the IPS measurement can be problematic.
