The computer(Dell Inspiron 9300 battery) market is moving increasingly toward mobility: the future is marked by the simplicity and portability. Over the years, a computer component decreases its value agree to the changes introduced simultaneously, one component that has seen the most growth in recent years is the processor: the old model 10 years ago with faster processors present optimized multimedia operations or other special situations through external instruction set and finally the huge multi-step: first simulated, then actual number of cores inside the processor is step one to eight.
But now we are preparing a new revolution of processors: Australian scientists have created a transistor 10 times smaller than that currently used by them. Such a creation will not only save enormous space, but also increase performance and decrease the heat generated by the core. All this is possible thanks to a tiny transistors and simple, but we see more closely this “piece”: the transistor is a solid that has the special feature to pass current only when l ‘order’. We can assimilate the transistor to a faucet when we open the handle, passes the water when the handle is closed, water does not pass. From this simple mechanism is born whole series of buildings that allow what we now call computers(Dell Latitude D620 Battery).
To understand what levels of development we arrived just think of the number of transistors in a component: we started from 3500 transistors in the early 1974′s CPU(which runs by HP Pavilion DV6000 battery) up to over 60 million in the latest Pentium IV. This number will be ten times greater with the creation made by Australian scientists! The new transistor is based on “quantum dots”, a transistor on an atomic scale big four billionths of meters, are frightening figures that allow us to do what we do now every day.
