3. What is Ivy Bridge?
• Codename for "third
generation" of Intel Core
processors (core i3, i5 and i7).
• Introduced in September
2012.
• Predecessor: Sandy Bridge
(2nd Generation Processor).
• Successor: Haswell (4th
Generation Processor).
• First 22nm processor.
• Uses tri-gate transistors.

4. Processors
Integrated electronic circuits that performs all the calculations and functions
that run a computer.
Responsible for all direct and indirect work.
Performs arithmetical, logical, I/O and other basic instructions that are passed
from an OS.
Functions: fetch, decode, execute and write back.

5. Intel Microarchitecture Roadmap
• World's second
largest semiconductor chip
maker.
• Supplies processors for
computer system
manufacturers.
• Follows "tick tock" model for
its processor upgrade cycle.
• "Tick", Smaller manufacturing
process.
• "Tock", New processor
microarchitecture.
