Dual Core Processor

A dual-core processor is a CPU with two processors or "execution cores" in the same integrated circuit. Each processor has its own cache and controller, which enables it to function as efficiently as a single processor. However, because the two processors are linked together, they can perform operations up to twice as fast as a single processor can.

3. Contents Introduction History Features Advantages Disadvantages

4. Introduction A dual core processor is an integrated circuit with two processing units. The two identical processor are manufactured so they reside side by side on the same die. Some popular dual core processors are:- AMD A4-3300, Intel Core Duo, AMD X2, Processor is an integrated circuit with two processing units.

5. History The first dual-core processor was created by IBM in 2001. IBM's Power 4 processor was designed for server applications and was not available for home use. The first dual-core processor for standard home PCs was the Intel Pentium EE 840 in April 1,2005. AMD & Intel shifted their focus from increasing clock speeds to improving their processor designs.

6. Features Executes two complete instructions at the same time. Integrates two processors in a single package. Support hyper threading technology. Capable of 64-bit instructions. Multitasking and multithreading capability. Its design is well tested and reliable.

8. Advantages Dual core can boost system’s multitasking computing power. It provides two separate complete execution cores. As each core has its own cache the processor has sufficient resources to handle task in parallel. Dual core enable to process three time faster then single core. Provide user-friendly entertainment system. Many new software like, Adobe Photoshop and MS Office run properly.

9. Disadvantages Dual-core processors generate more heat than a single core processors . Dual-core processors don't always perform better than single core processors. Dual-core processors are not able to handle as many tasks at the same time as efficiently Dual core cost more than single core processors.
