Here is a list of some of the most prominent features of any microprocessor −

• Cost-effective − The microprocessor chips are available at low prices and results in its low cost.
• Size − The microprocessor is of small size chip, hence is portable.
• Low Power Consumption − Microprocessors are manufactured by using metal oxide semiconductor technology, which has low power consumption.
• Versatility − The microprocessors are versatile as we can use the same chip in a number of applications by configuring the software program.
• Reliability − The failure rate of an IC in microprocessors is very low, hence it is reliable.
