Intel

Intel is a semiconductor company that designs processors and other chips, including products based on the x86 instruction set architecture.

Intel Core: A family of Intel microprocessors used mainly in personal computers. Core processors are Intel’s best-known products for consumer PCs.
x86: A family of instruction set architectures originating with Intel’s 8086 processor. Intel develops processors implementing the architecture that became central to its business.
Gordon Moore: An American engineer and businessman who co-founded Intel and later led it as chief executive. Moore helped establish Intel’s early strategy and became its best-known co-founder.
Advanced Micro Devices: An American semiconductor company that designs processors and graphics products, including x86-compatible CPUs. AMD is Intel’s principal rival in x86 processors for PCs and servers.
Intel Xeon: A family of Intel processors designed primarily for servers and workstations. Xeon chips extend Intel’s processor business into data centers and professional computing.
Microprocessor: A processor whose central processing circuitry is integrated on one or more semiconductor chips. Intel’s core products are microprocessors that execute programs and coordinate computer operations.
Robert Noyce: An American physicist and inventor who co-founded Intel and helped develop the integrated circuit. Noyce brought semiconductor expertise and leadership to Intel’s founding.
Arm architecture: A family of processor architectures licensed by Arm and widely used in mobile and embedded devices. Arm offers a major alternative to x86 in power-efficient computing.
Intel Arc: Intel’s brand of graphics processing units for personal computers. Arc represents Intel’s effort to compete in discrete graphics alongside its integrated graphics.
Semiconductor fabrication: The sequence of processes used to manufacture integrated circuits on semiconductor wafers. Intel’s manufacturing operations turn processor designs into physical chips.
