A dual core processor has two processing units on a single integrated circuit. The first dual core processors were developed by IBM in 2001 for servers. Intel later released the first dual core processor for home PCs in 2005. Dual core processors can execute two instructions simultaneously, provide improved multitasking capabilities, and enable faster processing compared to single core processors, but they also generate more heat and cost more than single core processors.

3. Introduction
 A dual core processor is an integrated circuit with two processing
units.
 The two identical processor are manufactured so they reside side by
side on the same die.
 Some popular dual core processors are:- AMD A4-3300,
Intel Core Duo, AMD X2,
 Processor is an integrated circuit with two processing units.

4. History
 The first dual-core processor was created by IBM in 2001.
 IBM's Power 4 processor was designed for server applications and was not
available for home use.
 The first dual-core processor for standard home PCs was the Intel Pentium
EE 840 in April 1,2005.
 AMD & Intel shifted their focus from increasing clock speeds to improving
their processor designs.

5. Features
1. Executes two complete instructions at the same time.
2. Integrates two processors in a single package.
3. Support hyper threading technology.
4. Capable of 64-bit instructions.
5. Multitasking and multithreading capability.
6. Its design is well tested and reliable.

7. Advantages
 Dual core can boost system’s multitasking computing power.
 It provides two separate complete execution cores.
 As each core has its own cache the processor has sufficient resources to handle task in
parallel.
 Dual core enable to process three time faster then single core.
 Provide user-friendly entertainment system.
 Many new software like, Adobe Photoshop and MS Office run properly.

8. Disadvantages
Dual-core processors generate more heat than a single core
processors .
Dual-core processors don't always perform better than single core
processors.
Dual-core processors are not able to handle as many tasks at the
same time as efficiently
Dual core cost more than single core processors.
