1 Chapter 1 Computer Hardware

2 BASIC FUNCTION OF COMPUTER
INPUT OUTPUT PROCESS STORAGE

3 + + COMPONENTS OF A COMPUTER COMPUTER SYSTEM _____________________
add hardware, software, and user = computer system _____________________ COMPUTER SYSTEM

4 WHAT IS HARDWARE? Physical devices (aspect) of a computer
Computer hardware can be classified into two: CPU (Central Processing Unit) and Peripherals

5 X Place a cpu and system unit

6 COMPUTER PERIPHERALS Input/output (I/O) devices
Usually electromechanical devices Online devices vs offline devices

7 INPUT DEVICES

8 INPUT DEVICES Allow the users to input data and instructions to the computer

9 EXAMPLES OF INPUT DEVICES
Keyboard 1875, Christopher Latham Sholes (father of typewriter) invented the first practical typewriter QWERTY keyboard (enhanced) has 101 keys Electronic typewriter keyboard

10 EXAMPLES OF INPUT DEVICES
Keyboard three types of key: Alphanumeric keys Punctuation keys Special keys (alt, arrow/navigation, backspace, caps lock, ctrl, delete, enter, esc, function, insert, prt sc, home, end, page down, page up)

11 EXAMPLES OF INPUT DEVICES
Mouse 1963, Douglas Engelbert invented the mouse at Stanford Research Institute. Small hand-held ‘point and click’ device.

12 EXAMPLES OF INPUT DEVICES
Three types of mouse: Mechanical Mouse Optomechanical Mouse Optical Mouse trackpoint

13 EXAMPLES OF INPUT DEVICES
Common terms used with mouse directions/actions: Point (hover over) Click Double Click Drag Select

14 EXAMPLES OF INPUT DEVICES
Light pen Consist of stylus connected by a cable to the computer

15 EXAMPLES OF INPUT DEVICES
Trackball Originally built into keyboard Use hand over the trackball to move the cursor on the screen

16 EXAMPLES OF INPUT DEVICES
Joystick Small vertical stick attached to trackball for easier mechanical movements

17 EXAMPLES OF INPUT DEVICES
Scanner Convert hardcopy to softcopy Direct-entry input device

18 EXAMPLES OF INPUT DEVICES
Barcode Scanner Uses optical scanner to read barcode and converts it into electrical pulses (or simply characters)

19 EXAMPLES OF INPUT DEVICES
Voice Recognition Systems Special microphone used to capture voice as an input Converts voice into electrical pulses to digital signals then transmission to a computer Limited vocabulary of words (voice command)

20 EXAMPLES OF INPUT DEVICES
Digital cameras Used to capture images (digitally)

21 OUTPUT DEVICES

22 OUTPUT DEVICES Display the result of the computer.

23 EXAMPLES OF OUTPUT DEVICES
Visual display unit or Monitor Television-like screens that provide the user interface in the form of displaying text, numbers and images Can be monochrome or colored

24 EXAMPLES OF OUTPUT DEVICES
Audio response system or Speaker Can produce verbal output (sound)

25 EXAMPLES OF OUTPUT DEVICES
Printers Produce hardcopy output. Three broad groups of printers Character printer, line printers, page printers Classification of printers Impact printers or non-impact printers

26 EXAMPLES OF OUTPUT DEVICES
CHARACTER PRINTER Dot Matrix Printers (DMP) Prints one character at a time Produce dotted-output because of the pins on the print head Speed is measured by CpS (Character per second) cps Produces a lot of noise Uses ribbon as an ink

27 EXAMPLES OF OUTPUT DEVICES
CHARACTER PRINTER Inkjet Printer Non-impact printer Quiet when working Gives better quality Available in black/white and in color

28 EXAMPLES OF OUTPUT DEVICES
CHARACTER PRINTER Graphic Plotter Used for large format media. Graphs, maps, billboards, tarpaulin

29 EXAMPLES OF OUTPUT DEVICES
LINE PRINTER Drum printer Uses powder as an ink Available color: Grayscale

30 EXAMPLES OF OUTPUT DEVICES
PAGE PRINTER Laser printer High-end printer More expensive than inkjet printers Available color: Grayscale

31 EXAMPLES OF OUTPUT DEVICES
PAGE PRINTER Magnetic Printer Drum coated with magnetic material that capture the image of the page to be printed Use thermal papers

32 STORAGE DEVICES

33 PRIMARY MEMORY (MAIN MEMORY)
TYPES OF MEMORY RAM (Random Access Memory) Volatile loses its contents if the device is electrically disconnected Temporary holding area for data, application program instructions and operating system (OS) AKA “waiting room”

34 APPS RAM rapsa! ajejeje

35 RAM WHERE IS RAM?

36 EXAMPLE OF SECONDARY MEMORY (STORAGE DEVICE)
Magnetic disk Direct access Made of rigid materials or symmetric plastic material Hard disk and floppy disk

37 EXAMPLE OF SECONDARY MEMORY (STORAGE DEVICE)
Magnetic tape Serial access storage medium Reels up to 3600 feet made of mylar plastic tape Can store large volume of data at low cost

38 EXAMPLE OF SECONDARY MEMORY (STORAGE DEVICE)
Optical Storage Information is written to or write from an optical disk or tape using laser beam Also known as “laser disk” CD-ROM, CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-ROM, DVD-RW, DVD-R, Blu-ray

39 EXAMPLE OF SECONDARY MEMORY (STORAGE DEVICE)
Solid state storage Sometimes called flash memory Erasable, re-writable Flash drive (pen drive) and Memory card (SD/MMC)

40 PROCESSING UNIT (PU)

41 EXAMPLE OF PROCESSING UNIT
CPU (Central Processing Unit) Also known as Processor Brain of the computer Containing ALU (arithmetic logic unit) and control unit Without the help of Chips (Chipset) the CPU is useless

42 EXAMPLE OF PROCESSING UNIT
GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) Used to managed and boost the performance of video and graphics Its features are designed to lessen the work of CPU Mobile phones, display adapters, workstation and game console Developed by Nvidia in 1999 (GeForce 256)

43 INTERNAL COMPONENT

44 EXAMPLE OF INTERNAL COMPONENT
Motherboard Main circuit board of a computer Mainboard, system board, MOBO

45 INSIDE MOTHERBOARD CMOS (Complementary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor)
On-board battery powered semiconductor chip Prevent up-to-date your computer Uses CMOS coin cell battery to power the CMOS memory

46 INSIDE MOTHERBOARD Expansion slots
Used to insert expansion card (circuit board) which provide additional features to a computer such as video, audio, Ethernet

47 INSIDE MOTHERBOARD AGP (Accelerated Graphics Port)
Based on PCI design for 3D Developed by Intel

48 INSIDE MOTHERBOARD Memory Slots Memory Slot, Memory socket, RAM slot
Can be 2 or 4 memory slots depends on a motherboard

49 INSIDE MOTHERBOARD Cooling Fan Used for active cooling

50 INSIDE MOTHERBOARD Power Supply Power Supply Unit (PSU)
Component that supplies a power to a computer

51 INSIDE MOTHERBOARD Ports Physical docking point of an external device

52 COMPUTER SOFTWARE

53 MICROSOFT WORD 2013

54 NOTEPAD

55 COMMAND PROMPT (CMD)

56 GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE (GUI) [gooey]

57 ICON and BUTTON Miniature image that represents a program, an instruction or some other object. ICON – double click BUTTON – single click

58 2 categories of software
SYSTEM SOFTWARE APPLICATION SOFTWARE

59 APPLICATION SOFTWARE Consist of programs designed to make users more productive and/or assist them with personal task.

60 Types of application software
Spreadsheets Data management Word processing Desktop publishing Computer-Aided Design (CAD) Multimedia Browsers

61 Browsers Root word Browse search

62 System software Consist of programs that control or maintain the operations of the computer and its devices

63 3 types of System software
System support Programs Utility software Utility program Antivirus software Worms, Trojan horse, Bot, Spyware Backup software Disk tools System Development Programs Compiler and Interpreter System Management Programs Operating system
