This frequency, divided by 2 16 (the largest divisor the 8253 is capable of) produces the ≈18.2 Hz timer interrupt used in MS-DOS and related operating systems. In the original IBM PCs, Counter 0 is used to generate a timekeeping interrupt. Counter 1 is used to trigger the refresh of DRAM memory. Counter 2 is used to generate tones via the PC ...
macOS Mojave (/ m oʊ ˈ h ɑː v i, m ə-/ mo-HAH-vee; version 10.14) is the fifteenth major release of macOS, Apple Inc.'s desktop operating system for Macintosh computers. Mojave was announced at Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference on June 4, 2018, and was released to the public on September 24.
The history of macOS, Apple's current Mac operating system formerly named Mac OS X until 2011 and then OS X until 2016, began with the company's project to replace its "classic" Mac OS. That system, up to and including its final release Mac OS 9 , was a direct descendant of the operating system Apple had used in its Mac computers since their ...
Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard was the first version of Mac OS X to be built exclusively for Intel Macs, and the final release with 32-bit Intel Mac support. [37] The name was intended to signal its status as an iteration of Leopard, focusing on technical and performance improvements rather than user-facing features; indeed it was explicitly ...
The Intel 8253 PIT was the original timing device used on IBM PC compatibles. It used a 1.193182 MHz clock signal (one third of the color burst frequency used by NTSC, one twelfth of the system clock crystal oscillator, [1] therefore one quarter of the 4.77 MHz CPU clock) and contains three timers.

The M4 Pro has 14 CPU cores (10 performance and 4 efficiency), while the M4 Max has 16 CPU cores (12 performance and 4 efficiency); both have a 16-core Neural Engine. The M4 Pro and M4 Max have a 20-core and 40-core GPU, and a 256-bit and 512-bit LPDDR5X memory bus supporting 273 and 546 GB/s bandwidth respectively.
The HPET specification does not define the timer frequency, only requiring a minimum of 10 MHz; the actual frequency is provided to the operating system by a hardware register giving the number of femtoseconds per period (with an upper bound of 100 000 000 fs). A popular value is 14.3 18 MHz, 12 times the standard 8254 frequency of 1.193 18 MHz.
