Sure, you can build a PC, but you can't exactly build your own CPU. Fortunately, there are companies that can - here's how they do it!

"...to create transistors, that only allow current to flow in one direction, which means they can function as tiny switches or gates..." You're getting transistors confused with diodes. It's true that transistors function as tiny switches, but it's diodes that only allow current to flow in one direction. The function of a transistor is harder to explain succinctly, but it's basically an electronically operable switch. And it generally takes multiple transistors to make a single gate, so you shouldn't really equate the two.
@LazerLord10
@LazerLord10 8 жыл бұрын
+Yoshie True, but the physical construction is almost identical. I think (just going off of memory here), a diode is a P-N junction, and a transistor is just what happens if you add another P or N junction, hence PNP and NPN transistor types. But you're right about the function of transistors not being the same as a diode.

I am incredibly overwhelmed of how magical these things are. As well as photography. I mean, it's to think that there was NOTHING that could portray a moment forever, and then someone had an idea on how to make that. And it was made, it's just incredibly magical. Linus, can you explain AFAP how does the electrical energy in the CPU convert to... everything we see? Because as far as we can see... they are only 2 pieces of metal (and other materials) together, but how does that go from being that into something abstract (an OS). Does it send different waves of electric energy and with protocols is interpreted... or... does Gandalf have anything to do with all this? I would love a video about this. (If not as fast as possible, then in LTT channel since maybe you need more time than some minutes).

The reason why transistors can't get any smaller is because of quantum tunneling. Basicly, the electrons that wouldn't otherwise flow through the transistor (be allowed to) does so anyway (because of quantum tunneling) when the size gets too small.

@forestR1
@forestR1 7 жыл бұрын
i3, i5 and i7 are all made from the same die (within the same generation), then they are binned according to what is broken. for skylake that means they are all essentially i7 6700K CPUs. if one (or more) hyperthread path doesn't work, then all hyperthreading is disabled and it sells as i5, (same if any of the L2 cache is no good). if any cores are faulty, then 2 cores are disabled and it is sold as an i3. The stability of cores at particular frequencies determine weather it is designated as say a 6400, 6500, 6600 or 6600K. They all cost about the same to manufacture, and R&D is a blanket expense for the generation. but they can charge more for a better (i7-6700K) and while an i3-6100 costs the same to make - selling it at a reduced price still recoups more of the loss than throwing away anything that is not perfect. I am also amazed how stupid consumerism can be.

+Nitay A. The larger a CPU, the more time it takes electrons to get from one side of the die to the other. (In other words, a larger CPU would actually limit the top speed. It is a careful balance between size, speed, and features. Many engineers spend years building them and figuring this stuff out.) Next question! (And yield of course. A larger CPU die typically means less yield. In other words, when they make a wafer of them, there is more waste - more of them that don't work during testing.)

Why are wafers cut into circular shape instead of a more rectangular one? Wouldn't that give you more usable area?

@Cyber_Akuma 2 жыл бұрын
I think it's not that they are cut that way, but that the giant silicon crystal that they are grown out of is basically a cylinder, because that's just how it's crystal structure naturally grows. They just slice up said cylinder and then etch as many processors on it as they can fit from that current design.

Just thought I'd add a point of clarification, the reason silicon purity is so important is because small concentrations of impurities or what are known as dopant atoms have an incredibly large effect on the electronic properties of the silicon (which its vitally important to control if you're going to make a metal oxide transistor)

2 small corrections: a. MOSFET transistors are symmetrical, you can turn them upside down in any circuit and it wouldn't change a thing because the drain and the source are interchangeable (it only depends on what's connected on each end) - so no, the transistor itself is capable of passing current in either direction. Using it as a switch is actually achieved by what voltage is applied to the gate (hence we call it a gate). b. silicon isn't doped with ions, it's a very common mistake, it's doped with *neutral* atoms of either donor or acceptor variety, and those atoms carry a neutral charge. They improve the conductivity of silicon because they add more usable (for conventional electrical flow) carriers, but they DON'T change the charge of the silicon itself.
