Question 1 of 1 [100 Marks]

The Intel® Core i7 CPU

Intel’s Core i7-8086K Processor is a 64-bit 8-core high-end performance desktop microprocessor introduced by Intel in 2018. This processor is manufactured on Intel's 3rd generation enhanced 14nm++ process. The i7-8086K operates at a based frequency of 4 GHz with a L3 cache.

RESEARCH REQUIREMENTS:

· You must use reference (cite the research) in your answer.

· It is expected that you have between 10 (minimum) to 15 (average), but more references is better.

· You are expected to have at least 50% (half) of your references from the lecturer notes. Referencing the class notes simply need to be described after your statement, as in the example below:

…and a PN junction is formed on the main current carrying path, also called the channel (Class Notes, Slide Pack “Eng Sem I #10 Transistors”, Slide #27)

· High quality references are academic books, journal articles, newspaper of record, articles from industry accreditation authorities.

· Internet blogs, Wikipedia, webpage articles and similar low-quality references are not high-quality references.

Additional Pointers:

· You should never copy and paste from any source:

o Your work is analysed by a plagiarism detector, they are very accurate pieces of software with literally millions of website and articles in their databases to check against your work.

o However, you have to write what other people are saying on the subject, so how you do this if you paraphrase what you have sourced for your research,

o This means you effectively rewrite what they are saying in your own words.

o Everything you paraphrase should have at least one reference, and in some cases at least two reference – i.e. giving it a citation/reference (in APA or Harvard Style)

o Plagiarism of any kind will result in zero marks (see below)

· Please refer to the Rubric on marking on the next page as a guide to marking.

Submission Format:

· Word count is 1,500, with a plus/minus 10% allowance – not including title page, contents page, diagrams, tables, or references. Marks are deducted for wordcounts outside this range.

· Your submission should be submitted in a Report Style (not an essay style) with a contents section and proper use of headings.

· Submission without out research (bibliography and in-line citations) will result in loss of marks.

· All work must be original. Any plagiarism which is confirmed will result in loss of marks and disciplinary actions. Please remember, all assignments are tested by the University’s system for plagiarism. Plagiarism includes:

· Copying work from another assessment you already submitted

· Paying someone to do the work

· Asking someone else to help write your work

· Submitting any work that is not entirely, or in part not your effort

· All references used must be in the APA 6th edition or Harvard format.

· Your assessment should contain a title page, and contents (not included as part of the word count) i.e. submitted using the standard TU Dublin assessment template and TU Dublin style guide. Failure to do so will result in a loss of marks.

As this is an open book exam, the following describes what is and is not permitted:

Is Permitted:

What is NOT Permitted:

Use of class notes.

Working in a group.

(this is an individual assessment)

Using internet sites for reference.

Copying sentences or paragraphs from the internet, books or anywhere else.

Using books for reference.

Sharing your work with other students.

Submitted work that is entirely your own research and effort

Asking or getting help from someone else.

Paying someone else to do the work.

Getting someone else to do the work for you.

Submitting work that is not entirely your own effort.

Operation of MOSFET Transistors
A field impact semiconductor (FET), changes an adjustment in input voltage into an adjustment in yield cu
ent and therefore the gain of a FET is estimated by its transconductance , characterised as the proportion of change in yield cu
ent to change in input voltage .Those FETs which utilizes a thin silicon dioxide as the insulator is termed as Metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor a
eviated as MOSFET .It is also known as metal oxide silicon transistor . On the basis of the channel formed underneath the protecting layer, MOS semiconductors are delegated N-channel Metal Oxide semiconductor (NMOS) and P-channel Metal Oxide semiconductor (PMOS) (Circuits Today) . The operation of a transistor is characterized by three regions.
At the beginning VGS=0 cu
ent flowing from source to drain is also zero . A depletion regions forms at the drain source junction.When VGSiers in the P region reach the gate by crossing the depletion region. As a result an electric field is set up and cu
ent flows from souce to drain which increases with increase in VDS.Pinch off voltage is the voltage VDS when VDS =VDSsat. Over the immersion voltage the cu
ent stream is consistent. Ca
iers descend the channel impelled by the moderately powerless electric field along it. At the point when they a
ive the
im of the squeezed off district, they are sucked over the exhaustion area by the solid electric field. The voltage drop over the channel doesn't increment as the channel voltage is expanded; rather the squeezed off locale enlarges. In this manner, the channel cu
ent a
ives at a cutoff and stops to increment (Enz and Vittoz,2003).
Operation of quartz crystal oscillato
The crystal oscillator are made of quartz since it is inexpensive ,mechanically strong and is naturally available .These crystals work on the guideline of converse piezoelectric impact wherein a rotating voltage applied over the crystal surfaces makes it vi
ate at its common recu
ence and are termed as oscillations (vittoz and kaenel, April 1995) .The circuit of this crystal is a RLC circuit with a resistor of low rating ,Inductor of high rating and capacitor of medium rating .These three are in parallel to another capacitor.
The circuit consists of three resistors namely R1 which forms the network along with the other...
