I've written programs as a hobby and semi professionally for 15 years. Never understood computer science, never trained formally, but knew how to write programs. This video answers all of my questions at a level I (an amateur) can understand. Thank you!
YOU could make a simple processor if you were so inclined. Hell, you could make a complex processor if you wanted too and had the time to learn. There was this guy on hackaday that described how he makes chips in his garage. He is probably state of the art for about 1984, but sheesh, he is one guy in his garage. That is pretty amazing...
You don't even need to "physically" make a processor. You can design it in a Hardware Description Language (HDL) i.e. Verilog, and simulate your design. For a small processor, you can use FPGA to simulate it in hardware!
Incredible video if you're a hardware enthusiast like myself. I've been around since the 486 days and I still found this informative and incredibly entertaining.
I am in chip design from 1984 and tried many times to explain to people what am I doing. If I would have had these videos my explanation could have been easier. The animation and graphics are unbelievable quality. The Part 1 is a good umbrella explanation of the chip design in general and CPUs in particular. I will call this the 10.000 feet view. The Part 2 is the 1 foot view directly into the processor architecture so some industry lingo and knowledge is required. I would have liked to have a 3.000 feet and a 100 feet view for popularizing chip design and CPU for people who do not have an electronics background. Intel has all the capabilities to do it so please consider it. In the times of Artificial Intelligence and Biotech advancements making more people understand where all started and how it humans can benefit from their merger should be a good topic to cover. Looking forward for new videos from you.
If I ever need a metaphor or something to help illustrate what, "standing on the shoulders of giants" means, I will refer to this video. The amount of abstractions that each layer works on top of is insane!
Incredible overview. It would be great to have some more high quality videos about each of those parts in more detail. A bit about the chemistry/ physics/ electrical engineering of a transistor and the lithographic process, how do you connect transistors together to AND/ OR/ NOT in more detail, e.g. with some calculations and so on. There is much, much more to it e.g. the L1 cache is actually separated for instructions and data, so there are aspects of the Harvard architecture underneath. I don't think there is an attractive high quality video about these aspects, why they are the way they are, how they connect the other aspects of a modern processor. There are many more questions, for instance, how does a modern CPU start itself?
This is amazing. Thank you Intel! I have been fascinated by these devices since I was a little boy in the 90s (286, 386, 486, Pentium). And I continue to be fascinated. I look forward to Intel coming back and continuing to innovate: Alder Lake, Meteor Lake, and beyond to Lunar Lake.
These computers are like trying to go to the moon with a bicycle and an umbrella. We need to stop making war cross borders and evolve to be super humans. It's all we here for to evolve, nothing will be obstacles. Your eyes will see beyond the atom, beyond the universe.
Since I decide to study Information Technology.. I love to watch about IT. And this videos I'm surprised because all the topics I'm reading was all here.. specially Moore Law .. thank you for sharing this video. I hope more videos to watch.
Great video mate! Congratulations. I just think you could have talked about the instruction size (16, 32, 64 bits....). Like what really means to have a 64 bits computer compared to a 32 bits one; how much more computing power it brings but also how much more complexity it creates when designing the units registers, ALU. The instruction size defines, for example, how many colors the OS can reproduce, the quality of the sound, how much memory the computer can have/address, how large are the number it can calculate etc...
Great video! Although I may not know a lot about CPU architecture, this was a nice learning experience. So cool to see Intel doing things like this. Keep it up!
Interesting watch regardless if you are an AMD or Intel fanboy, should promote this more so it could get more views. Picked a link from this up on PC gamer, but i am sure more people not just gamers are interested in how these things actually worked considered how obsessed we are with our phones, cars, etc...the computer hardware industry creates the framework of what our future could look like, subbed and looking forward to the remaining episodes.
This is entertaining :) I already have a CS Degree and work as a Network Forensics Analyst but I still find this entertaining better than watching some non sense videos. I like learning about the physics of the electrons or photons inside the CPU highway and logic gates and conducting test's of new architecture designs in a digital 3D simulator environment and record the data.
Very good video that I will ask my student to look at. I appreciate the tribute to John Von Neumann, the importance given to the stored-program concept and the layered conception which permit limited human brain to conceive something so hugely complex. These videos are a good introduction to computer architecture and every student should look at them before beginning their lecture. Perhaps the chapter on language translation is a little bit vague, mixing compiled and interpreted language, and even as being myself a perl lover, I think you should mention python for the young people.
14:41 .. sorry for my bad english but The intel nowadays high-power CPU is based on "heavily modified" P6 .. did tremont design is can be a "future" of Intel's high-power CPU ? thanks
Dear Intel, I want you guys to bounce back from the current slump. The intel of the 1990s and 2000's was simply too cool and filled everyone with excitement on every new processor release. We need to bring that back. The renaming of new gen proc lineup is not the way to go, raw performance and after sales consistency in performance matters. Bring back the good old Intel days !
Sorry for an offbit query. Can somebody please tell me what kind of backgroun music was used in the intro ? For me, the music made everything in the video much better.
Wow!!! what a great Video, the power of abstraction made us understand different layers from molecules/atom to application with help of bottom up approach. Able to connect all dots now :)
@@freexmangaming4782 It's difficult to completely understand the concepts if you are taught about modern processors right off the bat. So, they teach the old ones initially and you could take an advanced level course if you interested to learn about modern architectures.
First be a rich student to be taught by the rich student. Never disrespect the teacher, they teach how much they know. If there wasn't TH-cam then what would be your solution.
Gr8 knowledgeable video. Ty intel. If possible kindly publish under intel press full pocket ebook about complete practical & educational intel CPU Arch. For students & university. Intel❤️Corporation.
What is a 'CVP' in a company (here: Intel)? It must be some 'vice president', but what does the 'C' stand for? Unfortunately, Google only lists "customer value proposition" and "Configuation via Protocal' as possible acronyms. Update: after some consideration, I came to the conclusion that the 'C' stands for 'Corporate'. So the CVP is a 'Corporate Vice President'.
I have a very urgent question for a long time🤯🥲, which is how many transistors are used to build the RAX register??!!!!#$ I want an answer from intel.😌

I mean, I just watched through this again to bump it in the algorithm a bit, as I think it deserves attention.

i would have loved to have someone like you to ask questions about what you do 🤣 i had to learn it the hard way... still learning
@ 5:35 he says that when he says CPU from now on, he'll be referring to a CPU core. Is this common practice to call a CPU core just CPU?

I am a software engineer but a hardware enthusiasts as well.
Great video for sure!
Wow, so much of what was said in my classes makes sense now.
Beautiful content. The best summary on the topic of computing technology I have ever watched. Thank you Intel may the force be with you 🙂
This is great. Hopefully, you'll go into greater detail about each point of this video. Such as dedicated videos focusing on each abstraction layer.
computer architecture is explained in simple form and keeps one waiting to hear more.
Brilliant video, exceptionally clear. Many thanks.
short and precise... beautifully explained
14:41 .. sorry for my bad english but
The intel nowadays high-power CPU is based on "heavily modified" P6 .. did tremont design is can be a "future" of Intel's high-power CPU ? thanks
Amazing Explanation! One of the Best I have ever seen. Quick and Crisp. Its a must watch for Every engineer.
This is a great information session, right on Intel, I like this.
Fantastic video!!! Well produced!! Awesome host! 10 out of 10!
This is for free! So grateful
Nicely done intel. Schools etc. can make good use of this footage.
It's propaganda.
8:11 Correction* Actually John Von Neumann did not invent the storage of data as program concept, he was just the one to publish the same.

Glad i came across this video series😊
We really need to be taught computer architecture by professionals... not by some university teachers who never coded in assembly
Agree, My teachers suck, well actually not my teachers hahaha I'm pn chemical eng. But bro, they teach so old things about architecture

thank God i have both youtube and professors who have actually coded in assembly teaching me these things simultaneously

It was more than excellent.👌👌 Thank you Sir.
this video was amazing, thank you so much
so nostalgic ! how engineering is changing and leaving a positive impact in our lives , #thankyouintel
this video is an incredible overview. thanks!
Love this series !!!
I love this! I learned something new about CPUsQQQ
Thank you for making these videos, I enjoyed them really much.
I do like the subtitles 😃
LMFAO
Odin Programming language rules !
The video is nice,but can we turn down Intel IME backdoor ?
This was phenomenal.
wow I could never understand this in four years I won't blame anyone but this course was awesome
Wonderful video!!!
Thanks dude, it said directx error, but i restarted and it worked good
Great explanation!
Really Impressive Video. Keep it up :)
Thanks this was really informative
have gone through computer organization course. very well explained!
What happened to the subtitles?
this video was astounding
Impressive - more of these, please!
I have a very urgent question for a long time🤯🥲, which is how many transistors are used to build the RAX register??!!!!#$
I want an answer from intel.😌
So compilers must be aware of the ISA being targeted in order to use all the CPU features, right?
These are getting good the more you watch it.. more “all access” from Intel!
thks for this great lecture 😊
This is the reason why i love intel
Reading von Neumanns works is not for the faint of heart
awesome info! this dude looks like ben affleck and ben stiller combined and i cant unsee it XD
Mind. Blown.
great and impressive, short but do give enough information for the overview of CPU architecture
Some Teacher Resources to go along with these videos would be great!
Now I want Koss to do a video about headphone design
You should have mentioned Federico Faggin, since you've talk about 4004. He is the man behind it.
Amazing video!
