Diagram of a generic dual-core processor with CPU-local level-1 caches and a shared, on-die level-2 cache. An Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 dual-core processor. An AMD Athlon X2 6400+ dual-core processor. A multi-core processor is a single computing component with two or more independent processing units called cores, which read and execute program instructions . [1] The instructions are ordinary CPU instructions (such as add, move data, and branch) but the single processor can run multiple instructions on separate cores at the same time, increasing overall speed for programs amenable to parallel computing . [2] Manufacturers typically integrate the cores onto a single integrated circuit die (known as a...
Edit Watch this page Read in another language Terabyte The terabyte is a multiple of the unit byte for digital information . The prefix tera represents the fourth power of 1000, and means 10 12 in the International System of Units (SI), and therefore one terabyte is one trillion ( short scale ) bytes. The unit symbol for the terabyte is TB . Definition Edit 1 TB = 1 000 000 000 000 bytes = 10 12 bytes = 1 000 gigabytes . A related unit, the tebibyte (TiB), using a binary prefix , is equal to 1024 4 bytes. One terabyte is about 0.9095 TiB. Despite the introduction of these standardized binary prefixes, the terabyte is still also commonly used in some computer operating systems , primarily Microsoft Windows , to denote 1 099 511 627 776 (1024 4 or 2 40 ) bytes for disk drive capacity.

Type of capacitors CONTRIBUTORS: JIMB0 FAVORITE 42 SHARE Share on Twitter Share on Facebook Pin It Introduction A capacitor is a two-terminal, electrical component. Along with resistors and inductors, they are one of the most fundamental passive components we use. You would have to look very hard to find a circuit which didn’t have a capacitor in it. What makes capacitors special is their ability to store energy ; they’re like a fully charged electric battery. Caps , as we usually refer to them, have all sorts of critical applications in circuits. Common applications include local energy storage, voltage spike suppression, and complex signal filtering. Covered in this Tutorial In this tutorial, we’ll be examining all sorts of capacitor-related topics, including: How a capacitor is made How a capacitor works Units of capacitance Types of capacitors How to recognize capacitors How cap...
