  6. Computer Organization Information System Hardware Powered by DeSiaMore

  7. What is a computer • A computer is a device that is • Electronic • Can store data • Can store and follow a set of software instructions, called a program. Powered by DeSiaMore

  8. Input Devices • An input device accepts data from outside the computer and converts it into an electronic form the computer can understand. • Examples include a keyboard, mouse, scanner, digital pen, and digital tablet. Powered by DeSiaMore

  9. Output Devices • An output device converts data from an electronic form inside the computer to a form that can be used outside the computer. • Examples include a screen, monitor, printer, and fax. Powered by DeSiaMore

  10. Primary Storage • Primary storage, also called internal storage, is the “memory”, or RAM, of the computer. • Primary storage, which is temporary storage, is dependent upon continuous electrical power. Any interruption of electrical power causes the contents of primary storage to be lost. Powered by DeSiaMore

  11. Central Processing Unit (CPU) • The CPU, or processor, carries out the instructions of the program. It contains circuits that perform arithmetic and logical operations. • Data is transferred from primary storage to the CPU with the results sent back to primary storage. Powered by DeSiaMore

  12. Secondary Storage • Secondary storage, also called auxiliary storage, stores data not currently being processed by the computer and represents permanent storage. • Data is usually transferred to and from primary storage. • Examples include hard disks, floppy disks, ZIP disks, CDROMs, and DVDs. Powered by DeSiaMore

  13. Input and Output Devices Information System Hardware Powered by DeSiaMore

  14. Keyboards • Most widely used input device. • Possible physical problems include • Repetitive strain injuries • Carpal tunnel syndrome • Ergonomically designed keyboards may improve user comfort and efficiency and reduce risk of injury. Powered by DeSiaMore

  17. Optical Scanning Input Devices • Bar-code scanner • Universal Product Code (UPC) • Flat bed, or page scanner • Automatic document feeder (ADF) scanner • Optical Character Recognition (OCR) • Mark-sense readers Powered by DeSiaMore

  18. Magnetic Scanning Input Devices • Magnetic strip reader • Credit cards • ID Cards • Magnetic Ink Character Recognition (MICR) – used at the bottom of all checks by the banking industry. Powered by DeSiaMore

  19. Voice Input Devices • Voice recognition software • Dragon Naturally Speaking • Via-Voice • Uses a microphone connected to the computer and translates the spoken word to text output. Powered by DeSiaMore

  20. Digital Input Devices • Digital cameras that produce photographic quality images. • Cameras connected to the computer for “live” images. Powered by DeSiaMore

  21. Screens, or Monitor, or CRT • Key elements of a “screen” include: • Pixels – picture elements arranged as a pattern of dots. • Screen resolution – the number of pixels that can be displayed on a screen at one time. • Refresh rate – the number of times per second that screen “repaints” itself. Powered by DeSiaMore

  22. Screens, or Monitor, or CRT (cont’d.) • Types of monitors • Traditional “tube” monitors, or cathode ray tube (CRT). • Flat-panel screens – most common type is liquid crystal display (LCD). • Screen projector used to display a computers output on a large screen. Powered by DeSiaMore

  23. Printers • Printer classifications • Impact printer • Nonimpact printer • Serial printers • Line printers • Page printers • Letter-quality printers • Draft-quality printers Powered by DeSiaMore

  24. Desktop printers • Ink-jet, or bubble-jet printer • Typically 200 to 300 characters per second • Laser printers • Typically between 4 and 24 pages per minute. • Dot matrix printer • Typically between 200 and 300 characters per second. Powered by DeSiaMore

  25. High volume printers • Line printers • High end line printers can print as much as 3,600 lines per minute (at 60 lines per page, that is 60 page per minute) and can cost $50,000. • Page printers • High end page printers can print as much as 200 pages per minute and can cost $100,000. Powered by DeSiaMore

  26. Other Output Devices • Plotters • Voice output devices – converting digitized data into synthesized speech • Sound output devices – speakers • Specialized devices for people with disabilities – can include large typeface screens, Braille display devices, special pointing devices, or headphones. Powered by DeSiaMore

  27. Virtual Reality • Virtual reality is the use of a computer to produce realistic images and sounds in such a way that the user senses that he or she is a part of the scene. • Examples include architectural design, home remodeling, aircraft design, machine design, and more. Powered by DeSiaMore

  28. Primary Storage Information System Hardware Powered by DeSiaMore

  29. Primary Storage Structure • Input data is stored in primary storage (memory) after it is received from an input device. • Output data is stored in primary storage before it is sent to an output device. • Without sufficient primary storage, it may not be possible to execute certain programs or use certain data. Powered by DeSiaMore

  30. Primary Storage Structure (cont’d.) • Silicon chips – integrated circuits • Volatile storage – dependent upon continuous power • Random Access Memory (RAM) • Non-volatile storage • Read-Only Memory (ROM) Powered by DeSiaMore

  31. Primary Storage Structure (cont’d.) • Binary representation • A combination of positive and negative electrical charges, represented by 1s and 0s when written to represent a character. • One “charge” is called a bit. • Eight bits are required to represent a single character, called a byte. • The 256 possible (28) binary combinations are defined in character set. Powered by DeSiaMore

  32. Primary Storage Structure (cont’d.) • Personal computer character set • ASCII – American Standard Code for Information Interchange • Mainframe computer character set • EBCDIC – Extended Binary Coded Decimal Interchange Code • Though each contains 256 characters, the definitions are not the same, so a “translator” is required for one machine type to “talk” with the other machine type. Powered by DeSiaMore

  33. Primary Storage Structure (cont’d.) • Storage locations of the “bytes” are called allocation units each of which has a unique address. • Storage capacities • Kilobyte (KB) or 1024 bytes (210) – approximately 1,000 bytes, thus the “kilo” • Megabyte (MB) or 1,048,756 bytes (220) • Gigabyte (GB) or 1,073,741,824 bytes (230) • Terabyte (TB) or 1,099,511,627,776 bytes (240) Powered by DeSiaMore

  34. The Central Processing Unit Information System Hardware Powered by DeSiaMore

  35. Two Main Parts of a CPU • Arithmetic-Logic Unit (ALU) • May add, subtract, multiply and divide two numbers. More complex operations are are completed by using sequences of the four basic operations. • Control Unit • Analyzes and executes instructions in a program. Instructions are brought in one at a time from primary storage. Powered by DeSiaMore

  36. CPU Speed • Early CPUs processed 8 or 16 bits at a time. • Current CPUs process 32 bits, and some can process 64 or 128 bits at a time. • The “roadway” from primary storage to the CPU is the bus. Higher bus capacities mean faster computers. Powered by DeSiaMore

  37. CPU Speed (cont’d.) • Clock speed • Measured in megahertz (MHz) or gigahertz (GHz). • One MHz is one million cycles per second. • One GHz is one billion cycles per second. • Earliest IBM PCs ran at 4.77 MHz. • Current PCs run at or above 1,000 MHz (1 GHz). Powered by DeSiaMore
