A Central Processing Unit (CPU) (also called microprocessor, or simply just processor) is the part of a computer that executes instructions from software. At its most basic level, a CPU fetches an instruction, decodes what it’s supposed to do, executes the operation (such as an arithmetic calculation or a memory access), and then writes the result back. This is commonly known as the fetch-decode-execute cycle.
