EVOLUTION OF MICROPROCESSORS INTEL

Definition
The Microprocessor is the brain of the Computer, responsable for process all
information. Is responsable for run all instructions exixting.

INTEL 4004
The 15 November of 1971, Intel launches first microprocessor: Intel 4004, a CPU of
4bits. Was the first microprocessor in a single chip, as well as the first commercially
available. The aim was to gather in a microprocessor all necessary elements to create a
computer. Was designed and implemented by Federico Faggin..This microprocessor was
designed by Intel para for the Japanese Company Busicom, for use in its line
calculators, had unique features for your time.

INTEL 8008
The 1 of April 1972 , Intel announced a enhanced version of its previous processor.
Was 8008 , and its main advantage over other models , was able to access more memory
and process 8 bits. It was the first 8-bit microprocessor , implemented with PMOS
technology, he had 48 instructions , could run 300,000 direccionaba operations per
second and 16 Kbytes of memory.
INTEL 8080
In April 1974, Intel launched the 8080 with a clock speed reaching 2 Mhz. This
microprocessor also direccionaba 8 bits, had 78 instructions, your speed operations was
10 times greater than that of 8008 and could address up to 64 Kbytes of memory.
INTEL 8085
In 1977 it hits the market the Intel 8085, 8-bit processor, binary compatible with the
previous i8080, but it required less hardware support and allowed systems simpler
microcomputers.
INTEL 8086 and 8088
In June 1978 and 1979 make their appearance 8086 and 8088 microprocessors that
passed to form the IBM PC, a team that came on the market in 1981. The i8086 and
i8088 were based on design the Intel 8080 and Intel 8085.
INTEL 80286
in February 1982 took a new turn intel industry with the appearance of the first 80286
(the famous computer "286") with a speed between 6 and 25 Mhz and a lot closer to the
current design microprocessors.

INTEL I80386
On October 16 1985 Intel launches i80386 with x86 architecture . He was employed as
central processing unit of many personal computers since the mid- 80s to early 90.
INTEL I80386SX
In 1988 , Intel developed a simple system to update the old 286 thanks to the emergence
of 80386SX .
These processors broke with the explosion of the environment graphic Windows ,
developed by Microsoft a few years earlier , but had not yet had sufficient acceptance
the users.
INTEL I80486DX
On 10 April 1989 the Intel 80486DX appears , again with 32-bit technology . 486
generation really meant to have a personal computer with advanced features.
INTEL PENTIUM
On March 22, 1993 sees the light for the first time the "Pentium " microprocessor
possessed this architecture can run two operations at once , thanks to its two 32-bit
pipelined data each .
INTEL PENTIUM PRO
Launched On March 27, 1995, the Pentium Pro (professional) processor was designed
with a 32-bit architecture. It was used in servers and software and applications for
workstations (network) quickly pushed their integration into computers.
INTEL PENTIUM II
The Intel Pentium II processor emerged, like its predecessor Pentium, for commercial
desktop systems generally use laptops, home PCs performance and entry-level servers.
In addition, the Pentium II processor provides outstanding performance for advanced
communications and multimedia software, including powerful image processing
features and realistic graphics, video conferencing and the ability to run full motion
video and full screen.
INTEL PENTIUM II XEON
The first Xeon processor, Pentium II Xeon name appears in 1998.
The Pentium II Xeon processors are designed to meet the performance requirements of
medium-range computers, more powerful servers and workstations (workstations).
INTEL PENTIUM III
On 26 February 1999 the Pentium III arrives.

The Pentium III processor offers Internet Streaming 70 new instructions, adding better
quality audio, video and performance speech recognition applications.

INTEL PENTIUM 4
On November 20, 2000 hits the market the Pentium 4 microprocessor seventh
generation with a completely new design.
With the Pentium 4 could do 3D graphics in real time.
INTEL PENTIUM M
In March 2003, the Intel Pentium M, Arrives It is optimized for power consumption
efficient, a vital feature to expand the battery life of the computer portable
INTEL PENTIUM XEON DUAL CORE
June 2006 Intel Announces New generation Xeon Dual Core technology dual core.
This new processor provided a 80% more performance per watt and 60% faster than the
competition.
INTEL PENTIUM XEON DUAL CORE
June 2006 Intel Announces New generation Xeon Dual Core technology dual core.
This new processor provided a 80% more performance per watt and 60% faster than the
competition.
INTEL ATOM
On March 2, 2008 Intel Announces arrival of Intel Atom, intended used in mobile
Internet devices, ultraportables, smart phones and other low power applications.
INTEL CORE I3, I5, I7 4 NUCLEOS
Core i3: It integrates a fast and flexible computing experience. equipped
with Intel Graphics Media Accelerator High definition.
Core i5: automatically allocates processing power where it is needed
most, allowing users to create HD videos, edit photos and play video
games.
Core i7: It is presented as the best option, which has great advantages
when using applications that require faster processing.
INTEL CORE I3,I5,I7 2DA GENERATION
In January 2011 I launched the Intel second generation of the family core. This new
family has an integrated approach to increasing processing and graphics performance of
a device graphics engine.
THE FUTURE OF MICROPROCESSORS

Reducing the size of the microprocessor through proprietary nanotechnology


techniques reduces energy consumption, making it more efficient, while significantly
increasing performance, speed and processing power of the core system. A nanometer is
one millionth of a millimeter.
