Computer is an advanced electronic device that takes raw data as input from the user and processes these data under the control of set of instructions (called program) and gives the result (output) and saves output for the future use. It can process both numerical and non-numerical (arithmetic and logical) calculations. A computer has four functions: a. accepts data (Input) b. processes data (Processing) c. produces output (Output) d. stores results (Storage) Input (Data): Input is the raw information entered into a computer from the input devices. It is the collection of letters, numbers, images etc. Process: Process is the operation of data as per given instruction. It is totally internal process of the computer system. Output: Output is the processed data given by computer after data processing. Output is also called as Result. We can save these results in the storage devices for the future use. Computer System: All of the components of a computer system can be summarized with the simple equations. COMPUTER SYSTEM = HARDWARE + SOFTWARE+ USER + Hardware = Internal Devices + Peripheral Devices All physical parts of the computer (or everything that we can touch) are known as Hardware. + Software = Programs Software gives "intelligence" to the computer. + USER = Person, who operates computer.

HISTORY AND DEVELOPMENT OF COMPUTER «When the human race started doing some trade, it felt a need for a calculating device. The first calculating device, which was used 2000 years ago was called abacus and the improvements in the calculating device in that age were slow. The next change came after about 1600 years. Following this, the changes were frequent and the mechanical desk calculator was developed around 1800 fica ea «In 1833, Prof. Charles Babbage, the father of the computer, developed a machine called analytical engine which was the vase for the modern digital computer. -ABACU sC. Amore modern abacus. Note how the abacus is really just a representation of the human-fingers: the 5 lowerrings on each rod represent the 5 fingers and the 2 upper rings represent the 2 hands.

Types of Computer jesse Mainframes are the very largest computers - million dollar machines, which can occupy more than one room, An example is IBM model 390. Workstations are powerful user machines. They have the power to handle complex engineering applications. They use the UNIX or sometimes the NT operating system. Workstations can be equipped with powerful RISC processors like Digital Alpha or MIPS. jicomputers are large powerful machines. They typically serve a network of simple terminals. IBM's AS/400 is an example of a minicomputer. Microcomputer are Small inexpensive, mass produced computers. They work on DOS, Windows, or similar operating systems. They are used for standard applications. DESKTOP (PC) = PALMTOP SERVER (SMARTPHONE) RDWARE [Link] DEVICE [Link] DEVICE [Link]/ PROCESSOR [Link] DEVICE [Link] 1.

It is perform many tasks, Arithmetical calculations, logical & Control all another parts of the Computer. It can also handle scientific Tasks. It can handle large calculations. Many companies makes CPU: 1. Intel (Integrated Electronics) (intel? 2. AMD (Advanced Micro Devices) Core2 3. IBM (International Business Machine) Duo 4. Qualcomm But Intel is most popular Processor Manufacturer Company History of Intel Corporation Intel Corporation, founded on July 18, 1968, is a portmanteau of Integrated Electronics (the fact that "intel" is the term for intelligence information also made the name appropriate).[5] Intel also makes motherboard chipsets, network interface controllers and integrated circuits, flash memory, graphic chips, Embedded processors and other devices related to communications and computing. Founded by semiconductor pioneers Robert Noyce and Gordon Moore and widely associated with the executive leadership and vision of Andrew Grove, Intel combines advanced chip design capability with a leading-edge manufacturing capability. Though Intel was originally known primarily to engineers and technologists, its "Intel Inside" advertising campaign of the 1990s made it a household name, along with its Pentium processors. | MICROPROCESSOR ™ *The 4-bit processors (4004) f *The 8-bit processors (8008) >) *Microcontrollers a *The bit-slice processor *The 16-bit processors: MCS-86 family (8086, 8088) *32-bit processors: the non-x86 microprocessors *32-bit processors: the 80386 range 32-bit processors: the 80486 range 32-bit processors: P5 microarchitecture (Pentium PRO) 32-bit processors: P6/Pentium (Pentium ii, Pentium iii) Ta 7" 32-bit processors *64-bit processors: *64-bit processors: *64-bit processors: *64-bit processors: 64-bit processors: *64-bit processors: Gen) *64-bit processors *64-bit processors Gen) : NetBurst microarchitecture (P68, Pentium 4) (intel) : IA-64 — Itanium Server : Intel 64 — NetBurst microarchitecture (Pentium 4, M) : Intel 64 — Core microarchitecture (Core 2 Duo, Quad) : Intel 64 — Nehalem microarchitecturer (Core i Series, 1 Gen) : Intel 64 — Sandy Bridge (Core i Series, 2"4 Gen) : Intel 64 — Ivy Bridge microarchitecture (Core i Series, 3 : Intel 64 — Haswell microarchitecture (Core i Series, 4°" Gen) : Intel 64 — Broadwell microarchitecture (Core i Series, 5‘ aes ae a INTEL PENTIUM PROCESSOR GENERATIONS PENTIUM PRO (1995-1998) PENTIUM ii (1997-2000) PENTIUM iii (1998-2004) PENTIUM 4 (2000-2006) PENTIUM D (2006-2008) CORE 2 DUO (2006-2008) pentium CORE i SERIES (2009-PRESENT) (aD (intel) Pern Se cia Types of Intel Processors @ Intel Atom (PC & Mobile, Low Watt) . @ Intel Celeron (PC & Mobile, Low Budget) * Intel Pentium (PC & Mobile, Medium Budget) ae @ Intel Core i3 (PC & Mobile, Low-Medium Budget) *** @ Intel Core i5 (PC & Mobile, Medium-High Budget) **** @ Intel Core i7 (PC & Mobile, High Budget) wees Intel Core i7 E (PC & Mobile, High End Budget) = ****** @ Intel Xeon (Server, High End Budget) jonnnk Xeon are intel) a) co oy an, Pain c ai core i3 CORE i5 SOME REGISTORS (1BIT) MU Cache (1MB-12MB) 1.

MEMORY UNIT (MU) (CACHE MEMORY) CPU, Inside the computer case Central Processing Unit (CPU) Memory device, it is very important part of the computer. Which can store data and results for temporarily or permanently. It is depend on types of memory. Any storage unit of a computer is ranked according to following criteria 1. Access Time 2. Storage capacity 3. Cost per bit of storage It is the time required to locate and retrieve stored data from the storage unit in response to the program instruction. A faster access is preferred. Storage Capacity It is the amount of data that can be stored on a storage unit. A larger capacity is desired Cost per unit of storage Goal is to minimize this cost ypes of memory device Basically two types of memory device: 1. Primary memory 2. Secondary memory Primary memory is special type of memory. A primary storage is made of several small areas called locations or cells . Each of these locations is capable of storing fixed number of bits called word length. Two types of primary memory: 1. RAM (random access memory) (external RAM) 2. ROM (read only memory) 3. Cache memory (static ram) (internal RAM - inbuilt) RAM is called random access memory. It is so called because it is possible to randomly select and use any location of the memory to directly store and retrieve data and instructions. It is called read/write memory because information can be read and written into it. Contents of RAM are volatile. In which store data (electronically) very fast rapidly. Which means data read & write very fast. It store data in form of electrical. So, if power is cut-off. Then, our data is lost. But, its store data only temporarily. So, we used to secondary memory to store . or save our data & results permanently. It is faster than secondary memory. But slower than cache memory. TYPES OF RAM: 1. | DRAM (DYNAMIC RAM) - REFRESH REQUIRED 2. SDRAM (STATIC DYNAMIC RAM) — NOT REQUIRED 3. DDR RAM (DOUBLE DATA RATE RAM) ROM (Read only memory) It is the memory in which information is permanently stored . The information from the memory can only be read and it is not possible to write information into it. When the power supply is switched off the information is not lost unlike RAM. In ROM special programs are written called micro programs. They are written to aid the control unit in directing the operations of a computer system. ROM is used by the manufacturer for storing the micro programs. Types of ROM: There of two types of ROM: @PROM(Programmable ROM) @EPROM(Erasable PROM) @ EPROM (Electronically EPROM) ROM(Programmable ROM) ROM chips are supplied by the manufacturer and it is not possible for a customer to Modify the programs stored inside ROM chip. But the user can convert his programs to Micro programs and store them in PROM chip. PROM is programmed to record the information using a facility called the PROM programmer. But once the chip has been programmed , the information cannot be changed and the PROM becomes ROM. EPROM(Erasable PROM) It is possible to erase the information stored in an EPROM chip and the chip can be reprogrammed to store the information Using PROM programmer. Information * stored in EPROM is erased by exposing the chip for sometime in Ultra violet light. PROM is mainly used by R & D personnel. fy Pe a Poe _ - CACHE MEMORY (CPU INBUILT RAM) A very high speed memory is sometimes used to increase the speed of processing by making the current programs and data available to the CPU at a rapid rate . The CPU speed is quite high as compared to the access time of FeaLVEaMErtssnn(o} ya @cCa pl eprtsusle} um iRtis-e MCOk@o nn LIne Bel the mismatch. It is a small memory between the CPU and main memory whose access time to close to the processing speed of CPU. It is not addressable by the user and is very expensive. is second type of computer memory. Which able to store data or result for long period of time permanently.
