Introduction to information technologyChapter 1:Computer hardwareConcepts of information technology• Hardware H/W• The software S/W• Database systems• Telecommunications & Networks• Internet, Intranet & ExtranetsHardware: Input, processing & OutputDevice• Why learn about Hardware?Chapter Review• In this chapter, we will learn:-Hardware components:• CPU (central processing unit)• Memory (primary and secondary storage)• Input devices• Output devices.-Classification of the computer with the power.– Strategic issues regarding hardware.Hardware components• Central Processing Unit (CPU)• Memory• Input devices (Equipment Input)• Output Device (Equipment Output)• Communication devices (EquipmentCommunicationCPUS (continued)• Microprocessor that executesinstructions for performing processing tasks.The components are:-Control Unit-Arithmetic-Logic Unit-Register-Primary StorageCPUS (continued)The control unit •-Access program instructions-Decode (interpret) the instructions-Control the flow of data throughout the system-The Data flow through the buses are calledCPUS (continued) • Arithmetic-Logic Unit -Perform calculations on the data -Performs comparative dataCPUS (continued)• The Register-High speed storage-Hold the data and instructions-Before, during, and after the execution by a CPUCPUS (continued)• Primary Storage (main memory)-Store the instructions of the program-Store data for processingMachine cycle• 4 cycle processCPUS (continued) • Machine Cycle Instruction involves two the instruction and execution phases: -Step 1: take the instructions. The instruction is taken from the main storage by the Control Unit -Step 2:. The Control Unit translates instructions instructions are translated and forwarded to the The processor's execution units as appropriate. -Step 3: Execute the instruction. The PESTLE to receive data and instructions and do-step 4: saving the results. The result is stored in the main storageImplementation instructions CPUS (continued)• Computer performance is measured in part by thethe number of machine cycles carried out instructionsper second (MIPS).• The factors that affect performance include:-Word length-Wide bus (Mhz)-Width-Clock speed:• a series of electronic pulses that are generated at specified levels that affect the timing of the cycle of the machine.• Clock speed is often measured in a megahertz (MHz, millionscycle per second) the gigahertz (GHz, or billions of cycles perthe second).CPUS (continued)• Microprocessor is thriving because of the-Miniaturization of transistors-Reduce the distance between transistors onchip (a decrease of line width)-Increase the electrical conductivity of (flow)-Improve the instruction set is programmed into thechip.• Smaller, faster, cheaper, more powerfulchips with each generation.Basics of computer memory• Digital computer, and represents the data in thebit pattern• Bit stands for binary digIT.
