1st Generation
The period from 1940 was the period of first-generation computers. They are basically based on vacuum tubes, and vacuum tubes are used as the basic components for memory and circuitry for CPU (Central Processing Unit). For e.g., UNIVAC-1 And ENIVAC -
2nd Generation
The second generation of computers consists of two types of devices transistors and magnetic core. For e.g., IBM 1401, IBM 1920, etc. -
3rd Generation
Jack Kilby invented the Integrated Circuit. This Integrated Circuit replaced the use of transistors in the third generation of computers. Integrated Circuits itself consists of many transistors, capacitors, and resistors and due to this third-generation computers are smaller in size, efficient, and more reliable. For e.g., CDC 1700, IBM-360 Series, etc -
4th Generation
VLSI (Very Large Scale Integrated) Circuit or they are also known as microprocessors are used in Fourth generation computers. Microprocessor chip is made up of thousands of Integrated Circuits build on a single silicon chip. -
5th Generation
It is based on Artificial intelligence (AI) software. Artificial intelligence describes the medium and way of making computers like humans, the way human think, the way humans act, etc. and this is an emerging branch and has all the scopes for research work too. For e.g., PARAM 10000, IBM notebooks, etc. -
6th generetion
These computers are called intelligent computers based on artificial intelligence or artificial brains. Whereas, it uses the semiconductors as the raw material to its processors -
7th Generation
The 7th generation Intel Core processors, also known as Kaby Lake, were announced in 2016. They are a family of Core microprocessors produced using a 14 nanometer manufacturing process technology. Kaby Lake is a refresh of the previous Skylake architecture, with some improvements in efficiency and power. -
8th Generation
The 8th generation Intel Core processors include various models with different specifications. For example, the 8th Generation Intel Core i7 Processors offer a range of options with varying clock speeds, cache sizes, and integrated graphics capabilities. -
9th Generation
The flagship model of the 9th generation Core series is the Core i9-9900K. The processors are available in Core i5, Core i7, and Core i9 variations. The 9th generation Core processors feature smart technology like Intel Hyper-Threading, Intel Turbo Boost, and Intel Optane memory. -
10th Generation
These processors offer a slew of improvements and a few surprising new features, such as higher core counts, faster clock speeds, and better power efficiency. They are available in low-power Y-series and higher performance U-series options, across a variety of Core i3, i5, and i7 CPUs. -
11th Generation
The 11th generation Intel processors consist of two families of processors based on different microarchitectures and process nodes. The Rocket Lake processors are the 11th generation Core desktop processors, based on Cypress Cove, a variant of Sunny Cove backported to 14 nm. -
12th Generation
The first 10nm processors with hybrid core design, combining performance and efficiency cores
