Computer - Components: Prepared By: Kenneth Santiago Sarboda

The document discusses the basic components and operations of a computer system. It describes how computers take in raw input data, store it, process it, and output useful information to users. The main components are the input unit which includes devices to enter data, the CPU or central processing unit which is the brain that performs operations and controls the system using components like the ALU, memory unit, and control unit, and the output unit which includes devices that present the processed information to users.

COMPUTER - COMPONENTS

• All types of computers follow


a same basic logical structure
and perform the following five
basic operations for
converting raw input data into
information useful to their
users.
Operation Description

1. Take Input The process of entering data and instructions into the
computer system

2. Store Data Saving data and instructions so that they are available for
processing as and when required.

3. Processing Performing arithmetic, and logical operations on data in


Data order to convert them into useful information.

4. Output The process of producing useful information or results for


Information the user, such as a printed report or visual display.

5. Control the Directs the manner and sequence in which all of the above
workflow operations are performed.
Input Unit

• This unit contains devices with the


help of which we enter data into
computer.
• This unit makes link between user
and computer.
• The input devices translate the
information into the form
understandable by computer.
CPU (Central Processing Unit)

• CPU is considered as the brain of the


computer.
• CPU performs all types of data
processing operations.
• It stores data, intermediate results and
instructions(program).
• It controls the operation of all parts of
computer.
CPU itself has following
three components
• ALU(Arithmetic Logic Unit)
a unit in a computer that carries out arithmetic and logical operations.
• Memory Unit
a unit of a computer or an independent device designed to record, stor
e, and reproduce information.
• Control Unit
•  is a component of a computer's central processing unit (CPU) that
directs operation of the processor. It tells the computer's memory,
arithmetic/logic unit and input and output devices how to respond
to a program's instructions.
Output Unit

• Output unit consists of devices with


the help of which we get the
information from computer.
• This unit is a link between computer
and users.
• Output devices translate the
computer's output into the form
understandable by users.
