ELBillions of switches, one brain. 🧠⚡
At the heart of every phone and computer lies the Microprocessor. But how does it actually "think"?
It all starts with the Transistor. 🤏
Think of a transistor as a microscopic digital switch with no moving parts. It has two simple states: ON (1) and OFF (0).
A modern CPU packs billions of these tiny switches onto a single silicon chip. By flipping them on and off at incredible speeds (GHz), they create logic gates that do the math, run your apps, and even render this video! 🤯
