Most microprocessors are made using silicon. And most are rigid, which means that if you want to put them in flexible devices like folding phones or wearables, they’ll need to be placed in a section ...

While India has undertaken smaller-scale chip projects in the past, Dhruv64's 64-bit architecture and 1.0 GHz dual-core ...

Fifty years ago this month, Intel introduced the first commercial microprocessor, the 4004. Microprocessors are tiny, general-purpose chips that use integrated circuits made up of transistors to ...

A team of engineers at Fudan University has successfully designed, built and run a 32-bit RISC-V microprocessor that uses molybdenum disulfide instead of silicon as its semiconductor component. Their ...

India has developed its first indigenous 1.0 GHz, 64-bit dual-core microprocessor, DHRUV64, by C-DAC. This achievement marks ...

The foundation of modern computing was something of an accident. The Intel 4004 Microprocessor, which debuted thirty years ago Thursday, sparked a technological revolution because it was the first ...

The popular Intel Atom microprocessors made for netbooks, or mini-laptops, costs 52 percent more per chip than the desktop version of the same processor. The popular Intel Atom microprocessors made ...

This month marks the 50th anniversary of the microprocessor. But developments in these semiconductor chips, which are the heart of every electronic device, continue with gusto. Researchers at UK-based ...
