History of Microprocessor

Following the historical development of the processor from year to year:

1.. In the Year 1971, beginning with processor Intel Debuts MCS4 series which is the forerunner of the i4040 processor with 4-bit registers.

2. In 1972, appeared i8080 processor, an 8-bit processor registers first.

3. In the year 1977, appeared 8085 processor, clock generator onprocessor, embryo bakalnya use single voltage +5 V (the implementation of s / d 486DX2, DX4 pd started +3.3 V etc.).

4. In the Year 1978, appeared i8086 processor, a processor with 16-bit registers, the outside information bus, 16-bit and 20-bit memory addressing.

5. In 1981, appeared i8088 16bit processor's internal bus, outside bus 8bit. Then came the 80 186 and i80188

6. In 1982, Intel i80286, processors with 16-bit registers, an outside bus 16-bit, protected mode is limited, known as the STANDARD mode using 24-bit memory addressing that can access a maximum of 16 MB

7. In 1985, Intel launched the design of a new processor: i80386. A 32-bit processor, in the sense of having 32-bit registers, the outside information bus 32-bit, and maintain compatibility with earlier generation processors, with the introduction of an additional 32-BIT PROTECTED mode for 32-bit memory addressing, can access a maximum of four GB. Since the 386 is beginning to emerge cloner processor: AMD, Cyrix, NGen, IT, IIT, IBM (Blue Lightning) etc.

8. Around 1989 Intel launched i80486DX. Which is very popular series, this series increased to 80 386 series is a velocity and internal FPU support schemes and clock multiplier (i486DX2 and iDX4 series), without additional new instructions.

9. 1993, and Intel launched the Pentium processor. Improvements to the i80486: PGA greater structure (higher speed, and pipelining, WITHOUT new instructions. There is nothing special about these chips, the fact that standards are created for i80486 VLB does not fit (it is not compatible) so that the chipset maker forced to redesign to support PCI. Intel Pentium makes use of the term to "drag" his rival. Since the Pentium is the cloner start "falling out" stay AMD, Cyrix.

10. In 1995, the emergence of the Pentium Pro. Innovation came from cache memory to the processor demands made socket 8. Pin-pin processor is divided in to groups: group to the cache memory, and a group again for the processor itself, which is nothing over pin-pin Pentium modified arrangement. Processor design allows a higher efficiency when dealing with 32-bit instructions, but if there is a 16-bit instructions appearing in 32-bit instruction cycle, then the processor will make emptying the cache so that the execution process is slow. There is instruction is added: CMOV (Conditional MOVE).

11. In 1996, the Pentium MMX. Actually nothing over a Pentium with additional units and additional instruction sets, ie MMX. Intel still has not provided a clear definition of the term MMX. Multi Media Extension is a term used AMD. There is a limitation on the design of this chip: for MMX modules are added only in to the design of the Pentium without redesign, Intel was made to make the MMX and FPU units do the sharing, in a sense when FPU MMX active non-active, and vice versa. So the Pentium MMX mode is not compatible with the Pentium MMX.

12. In 1998, Intel launched the Pentium II Xeon, a processor tailored to the needs of server applications.

13. In 1997, Intel launched the Pentium II, Pentium Pro with MMX expertise which has innovations: the cache memory does not become with the core as the Pentium Pro processor, but outside the nucleus but functions with processor speed.Innovation is what causes the loss of deficiency Pentium Pro (issues emptying the cache) The second innovation, the SEC (Single Edge Cartidge), Why? Since they can install the Pentium Pro processor in the slot with the help of special adapters SEC.Addendum: since onprocessor L2 cache, the cache speed = speed of the processor, whereas for the PII its cache in the "outside" (using the processor module), then the speed is half the processor speed. INTEL PENTIUM MMX

14. In 1999, Intel launched the Intel Celeron processor, a processor that is issued as a processor intended for users who do not need a faster processor performance for users who require to build a computer process with a budget (the cost) that is not sizable.Intel Celeron processor has the same shape and formfactor with an Intel Pentium type, but only with the instructions a little more, its L2 cache is smaller, the speed (clock speed) is slower, and cheaper than Intel processor Pentium types.With this release of the Intel Celeron processor back to a processor for a specific market.

15. In the same year, Intel also launched the Pentium III processor is a processor with an added 70 new instructions that dramatically enhance the ability of high-level imaging, three-dimensional, audio streaming, and video applications as well as voice recognition.

16. Still in 1999, Intel re-penetrated the market of servers and workstations with Intel Pentium III Xeon issue which has 70 SIMD command.The advantages of this processor is that it can speed up the processing of information from the process bus to the processor, which also significantly boosting performance.This processor is also designed to be combined with other similar processors.

17. In 2000, Intel launched the Intel Pentium-4, a product of the speed of Intel's process can penetrating up to 3.06 GHz speed.First time out with a 1.5GHz processor speed formafactor pin 423, then alter the formfactor intel processor Intel Pentium four in to the pin 478 which starts from an Intel Pentium four 1.3 GHz speed to the latest which is currently able to penetrating up to 3.4 GHz speed.

18. In 2001, Intel released the Pentium four Processor Intel Xeon is Intel's Pentium four processors that are specific to act as a server computer.This processor has numerous pins over the Intel Pentium four processor with memory and a bigger L2 cache as well.

19. Still in the same year, Intel launched the Itanium is the first processor-based 64-bit which is intended for usage on servers and workstations as well as specific users.This processor is made with a structure that is different from the earlier design and expertise based on Intel's Explicitly Parallel Instruction Computing (EPIC).

20. In 2002, Intel launched the Itanium 2 is the second generation of its Itanium relatives

21. In 2003, Intel launched the Pentium M, which is the 855 chipset, and Intel ® PRO / WIRELESS 2100 is a part of Intel ® Centrino .Intel Centrino are made to meet the market need for the existence of a computer that is simple to carryover anywhere.

22. In 2004, launched the Intel E7520/E7320 Chipsets that can be used for dual processor configuration with 800MHz FSB, DDR2 400 memory, PCI Express peripherals and interfaces.

23. In 2005, Intel launched the Pentium M 735/745/755 processors are equipped with the 855 chipset with new features 2Mb of L2 cache and 400MHz process bus processor socket compatibility with the Pentium M series before.

24. Still in 2005, Intel released the Pentium four Extreme Edition four.73GHz processor A is intended for the market of computer users who require something more from their computers, the processor is using a configuration frequency 3.73GHz, 1.066GHz FSB, EM64T, 2MB L2 cache and HyperThreading.

25. Still in the same year, the Intel Pentium D 820/830/840 production is based on a 64 bit processor and are called dual core because it makes use of four core, with 1MB L2 cache configuration for each core, 800MHz FSB, and can operate at a frequency of 2.8GHz, 3.0GHz, and 3.2GHz. On the processor type is also included support for hyperthreading.

26. In 2006, Intel launched the Intel Core four Quad Processor Q6600 is to type the desktop and have cores with configuration 2.13 and 2.4GHz configuration with 8MB L2 cache (up to 4MB per core that can be accessed), 1.06GHz front-side bus, and thermal design power (TDP)

27. In 2006, Intel launched the Intel Quad-core Xeon X3210/X3220, same with number 25,but used to type the server
