Outline Materi Microchips, Miniaturization, & Mobility The System Unit: The Basics More on the System Unit Secondary Storage Future Developments in Processing & Storage
Microchips, Miniaturization & Mobility Vacuum Tubes vs. Transistors Vacuum tubes were the original logic gates of computers They looked like light bulbs, were hot, and burned out like them too The original transistors were 1/100th the size of vacuum tubes (less power, faster, more reliable too) Transistors vs. Integrated Circuits Compare 1955’s 45 lb “portable” color TV to today’s 7 oz Casio 2.3 inch color TV One integrated circuit contains thousands of transistors
Semiconductor A material whose electrical properties are intermediate between a good conductor and a nonconductor of electricity Perfect substrate to overlay complex circuits on Microchips are made from semiconductors Contain millions of microminiature integrated circuits Microchips, Miniaturization & Mobility
Microprocessor The miniaturized circuitry of an entire computer processor on a single chip Contains the CPU, which processes data Microcontroller or Embedded Computer A microprocessor that was modified for use in a machine that isn’t a computer Microchips, Miniaturization & Mobility
The System Unit: The Basics Binary System: the basic unit of computing Uses just two numbers: 0 and 1 All data and program instructions in the computer are represented as binary Bit: each 0 or 1 is a bit Byte: a group of 8 bits Kilobyte: ~1,000 (1,024) bytes Megabyte: ~1 Million (1,048,576) bytes Gigabyte: ~1 Billion (1,073,741,824) bytes Terabyte: ~ 1 Trillion (1,009,511,627,576) bytes Petabyte: ~ 1 quadrillion bytes Exabyte: ~ 1 quintillion bytes
The System Unit: The Basics Binary coding schemes assign a unique binary code to each letter EBCDIC Requires 8 bits per character Used for IBM mainframes ASCII Requires 7 or 8 bits per character, depending on the version 8 bit Extended ASCII provides 256 characters Used for PCs, Unix hosts, Macs Unicode Requires 16 bits per character Handles 65,536 characters
The System Unit: The Basics Error Checking: Parity Bits Used in modems & communications to verify correctness One check bit is added to 7 bit byte The check bit is defined as either odd or even For odd parity, if the data sent is correct, the parity bit plus the first 7 data bits is an odd number For even parity, if the data sent is correct, the parity bit plus the first 7 data bits is an even number Discussion Question: If the 7 data bits are 1101011, and the modem is sending odd parity, what should the parity bit be set to? Answer: Since the data bits add up to 5, an odd number, the parity bit will be 0.
The System Unit: The Basics Machine Language A binary-type programming language built into the CPU that is run directly by the computer Each CPU type has its own machine language Language Translators System programs convert the programming instructions for you into machine language

More on the System Unit Speeding up Processing Method Interleaving Bursting Pipelining Superscalar Architecture Hyperthreading Description CPU alternates communications between two or more memory banks CPU grabs a block of data from memory instead of retrieving one piece at a time CPU doesn’t wait for one instruction to complete before fetching its next instruction The computer can execute more than one instruction per clock cycle A technique used in superscalar architecture in which the OS treats the microprocessor as though it is two microprocessors
