Microchip

Why this answer is correct

The correct answer is Microchip

Key Points

  • The computer's CPU (Central Processing Unit) manufactured on a single IC (Integrated Circuit) is called a microprocessor. It is also known as a Microchip.

  • A digital computer with a single microprocessor that works as a CPU is called a microcomputer.

  • It is based on the register, a programmable, clock-controlled, multipurpose electronic circuit that gets binary instructions from a storage device called memory, gets binary data as input, and executes data as per the instructions, and delivers results as output.

  • The microprocessor holds millions of small components like diodes, registers, and transistors that work together.

  • A microchip is a generic term for tiny electronic circuits built into tiny and sealed boxes with metallic pins.

  • The electronic circuit can be both analog and digital. A microprocessor is a generic term for a special kind of digital electronic circuit that is embedded into a microchip.

  • Hence, a microprocessor which is the brain of the computer can also be called a microchip.
