We recently looked at the origins of the integrated circuit (IC) and the calculator, which was the IC’s first killer app, but a surprise twist is that the calculator played a big part in the invention ...

While India has undertaken smaller-scale chip projects in the past, Dhruv64's 64-bit architecture and 1.0 GHz dual-core design mark a significant leap forward in power and functionality.

The microprocessor is a computer processor of arithmetic, logic, and control circuitry on a single integrated circuit. The ...

In 1958 the integrated circuit was developed by a young engineer at Texas Instruments named Jack St. Clair Kilby. He put together a few transistors and capacitors, linking them with a thin layer of ...

DHRUV64 is a fully indigenous 64-bit microprocessor developed by the Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC) under the Government of India’s Microprocessor Development Programme (MDP).

A microprocessor is a complex, programmable integrated circuit (IC) on a single chip that can execute instructions. This generally includes CPUs found in computers but also refers to the ...

Researchers have developed a microprocessor built on high-performance plastic rather than silicon—and they say it could enable smarter food labels and supply chain management. Christopher Intagliata: ...

Mark Hempstead owns shares in Intel Corp in a retirement account. He has received federal and industry funds for his research in power-management and computer architecture. Computers’ amazing ...

From a technical standpoint, DHRUV64 is a modern 64-bit processor built on the open RISC-V architecture. Its dual-core design running at up to 1.0 GHz enables higher efficiency and better multitasking ...
