The semiconductor industry is arguably a major technology driver that has continuously induced innovation in diverse industry sectors due to intense competition. The products of the semiconductor industry, particularly microprocessors, have enabled the development of high-performance computers, industrial as well as household equipment, consumer electronics, and mobile devices. The microprocessor is generally referred to as the central processing unit (CPU). It consists of a silicon chip holding a series of transistors together with other components and controls the central processing function of the computer and other devices in which it is employed. This e-book compares the innovative capabilities of the two major competitors, Intel and AMD, in the semiconductor Industry in the early years of Technology. Download<\/a><\/p>\n
