Microprocessor
– The microprocessor is the “brains” of
the
computer. It’s a computer processor on a
microchip. Often
when a computer is turned on, the microprocessor first gets its
instructions from the Basic Input/Output System (BIOS.) After
that, either the BIOS, or the operating system that the BIOS loaded
into computer memory, and/or a computer application, gives the
microprocessor instructions on how to perform.
