- Processor
- The processor is “the brains of a Computer System” It Processes Data Carries out
instructions (Executes Them) Processors have a Clock speed measured in Hertz Number
of Cycles Per Second

- Embedded System
- An embedded system is a dedicated computer system designed for one or two specific
functions. This system is embedded as a part of a complete device system that includes
hardware, such as electrical and mechanical components.

- Clock Speed
- the operating speed of a computer or its microprocessor, expressed in cycles per second

- Cache
- Processors have “Cache” – This is very fast, and usually a very
small amount of memory on the processor chip The Cache acts
as an intermediary between the processor and the Main
Memory As programs are executing – the Cache holds
commonly used instructions

- Core
- Each processor has a “core” in which instructions are executed.
Processors can be multi-core Dual Core Quad Core 8 Core Each
core executes instructions independently Dual Core may execute
up to twice as many instructions per second
