The India Institute of Technology In Madras Fabricated Its First Microprocessor Named Shakti

A few days ago, the India Institute of Technology, also known as IIT, in Madras succeeded in developing and manufacturing the first India microprocessor named Shakti, which has marked a big evolution in the India technology.

The first microprocessor was manufactured at Semi-Conductor Laboratory of the Indian Space Research Organization located in Chandigarh.

The India Institute of Technology also further shared the point making Shakti unique. That is, the computer chip can limit the vulnerability caused by systems infected with Trojans. Shakti is allegedly suitable to the special organization, like the nuclear power plants or government agencies.

According to lead researcher Prof Kamakoti Veezhinathan, the India Digital technology needs its own customizable processors to run some of the specific applications. The manufacturing facility at SCL Chandigarh is also believed to help India approach the target.
