  • A Dual Core Processor Has Two Cores (Essentially, Two Cpus on One Chip)
    Faculty of Engineering & Information Technology Al-Azhar University-Gaza Dr. Mohammad Aqel Microprocessors and Interfacing (ITCC 3301) Homework (1) Intel Core is a brand name used for various mid-range to high-end consumer and business microprocessors made by Intel. In general, processors sold as Core are more powerful variants of the same processors marketed as entry-level Celeron and Pentium. Similarly, identical or more capable versions of Core processors are also sold as Xeon processors for the server market. The current lineup of Core processors includes the latest Intel Core i7, Intel Core i5 and Intel Core i3, and the older Intel Core 2 Solo, Intel Core 2 Duo, Intel Core 2 Quad, and Intel Core 2 Extreme lines. 1- The original Core brand refers to Intel's 32-bit dual-core x86 CPUs. 2- Unlike the Intel Core, Intel Core 2 is a 64-bit processor, supporting Intel 64. The Core brand comprised two branches: the Duo (dual-core) and Solo (Duo with one disabled core). A dual core processor has two cores (essentially, two CPUs on one die (piece) silicon chip (IC)). Core2Duo is a specific dual-core processor design. Thus, all Core2Duo CPUs are dual-core CPUs, but not all Intel dual-core CPUs are Core2Duo designs. Core 2 is a brand encompassing a range of Intel's consumer 64-bit x86-64 single-, dual-, and quad-core microprocessors based on the Core microarchitecture. The single- and dual-core models are single-die, whereas the quad-core models comprise two dies, each containing two cores, packaged in a multi-chip module.
