The CPU is described as a central processing unit for general-purpose computing, handling diverse tasks with high performance but at a low cost/price ratio.
This image provides an overview of different types of processors and their key characteristics. It compares CPUs, ASICs (Application-Specific Integrated Circuits), FPGAs (Field-Programmable Gate Arrays), and GPUs (Graphics Processing Units).
The ASIC is an application-specific integrated circuit designed for specific tasks like cryptography and AI. It has low performance per price but is highly optimized for its intended use cases.
The FPGA is a reconfigurable processor that allows design changes and prototyping. It has medium performance per price and is suitable for data processing sequences.
The GPU is designed for graphic processing and parallel data processing. It excels at high-performance computing for graphics-intensive applications, but has a medium to high cost/price ratio.
The image highlights the key differences in terms of processing capability, specialization, reconfigurability, performance, and cost among these processor types.
