When this video popped up in my feed, I immediately started watching it.</p><iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/16zrEPOsIcI" title="YouTube video player" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe> <p>While the topic of how CPUs work has been discussed a lot in various forms and in different places, these guys bring great analogies and high production animations to really hammer the ideas in.</p><p>Another video from these guys that I absolutely and thoroughly enjoyed as well was their showcase of lithography machines that are the foundation of foundries like TSMC, GlobalFoundries, and Samsung. Another highly recommended video to watch if you ever wondered how CPUs are made and what lithography is.</p><iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/B2482h_TNwg" title="YouTube video player" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe> </div> https://blog.mrcsharp.dev/devlog/#2025-11-21T00:00:00 Fri, 21 Nov 2025 00:00:00 +0000 https://blog.mrcsharp.dev/devlog/#2025-11-21T00:00:00
