Computer System
• Computer →it is as fast electronic
calculating device that accept digitized information, process it according to a list of internally store instruction and produce an output or useful information to the outside world.
![Page 3: Lecture on Computer Components - Top Level View](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546c463eb4af9f75218b47b0/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
• Computer System →it refers to the computer
organization and architecture.
Elements of Computer System: 1. Hardware 2. Software 3. People ware/ users
![Page 4: Lecture on Computer Components - Top Level View](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546c463eb4af9f75218b47b0/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
• Components of ComputerInput/Output Unit (I/O unit) → supervise and monitor the
function performed by the microcomputer and external devices.
a) Input Device → computer accept coded
information through input unit which read the data.
Examples: Keyboard, mouse, etc.
![Page 5: Lecture on Computer Components - Top Level View](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546c463eb4af9f75218b47b0/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
b) Output Device → its function is to send
processed result to the outside world.
•Memory → consists of large number of data locations that stores both the data and the program that are currently used by the CPU.
![Page 6: Lecture on Computer Components - Top Level View](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546c463eb4af9f75218b47b0/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
• Central Processing Unit (CPU) → control the sequence of all information exchanges within the computer and the outside world.
a) Control Unit → the memory ALU and
input/output units store and process information and perform input/output operations. It acts like the supervisor seeing that the things are done in proper fashion.
![Page 7: Lecture on Computer Components - Top Level View](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546c463eb4af9f75218b47b0/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
The control unit determines the sequence in which computer programs and instruction are executed.
b) Arithmetic and Logic Unit (ALU)
→ most computer operations are executed in this unit.

DATA BUS – it carries the information being transmitted
ADDRESS BUS – it identifies where the information is being sent
CONTROL BUS – it describes aspects of how the information is being sent, and in what manner
SYSTEM BUS
A shared pathway, a set of wire or physical path that serves to interconnect the registers, I/O unit, CPU and the memory unit

The Harvard Architecture uses physically separate memories for their instruction and data, required dedicated buses for each of them. Instructions and operands can therefore be fetched simultaneously.
Different program and data widths are possible allowing program and data memory to be better optimized to the architectural.
![Page 14: Lecture on Computer Components - Top Level View](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546c463eb4af9f75218b47b0/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Harvard Architecture are frequently Harvard Architecture are frequently used in:used in:
→ specialized digital signal processor commonly used in audio or video processing products. → electronic application such as the PIC (programmable interface controller/ programmable intelligent computer).

Functional Units
Computer consists of three main parts:
• Processor (CPU)• Main-memory system• I/O system
![Page 18: Lecture on Computer Components - Top Level View](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546c463eb4af9f75218b47b0/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
The information handled by a computer:
• Instruction → Govern the transfer information
within a computer as well as between the computer and its I/O devices. → Specify the arithmetic and logic operations to be performed.
• Data → Numbers and encoded characters that are used as operands by the instructions.
![Page 19: Lecture on Computer Components - Top Level View](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546c463eb4af9f75218b47b0/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Programs→it is a list of instructions that performs a task.
• The program usually is stored in a memory called program memory.
• The computer is completely controlled by the stored program, except for possible external interruption by an operator or by I/O devices connected to the machine.
• Information handled by a computer must be encoded in a suitable format. Most present-day hardware employs digital circuits that have only two stable states, 0 (OFF) and 1 (ON).
![Page 20: Lecture on Computer Components - Top Level View](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546c463eb4af9f75218b47b0/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Memory UnitMemory
The storage area in which programs are kept when they are running and that contains the data needed by the running programs.
Types of memory:• Volatile memory → storage that retains data
only if it is receiving power, such as dynamic random access memory (DRAM).
• Nonvolatile memory → a form of memory that retains data even in the absence of a power source and that is used to store programs between runs, such as flash memory.
![Page 21: Lecture on Computer Components - Top Level View](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546c463eb4af9f75218b47b0/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Two Classes of Storage:• Primary memory
→ Also called main memory. Volatile memory used to hold programs while they are running; typically consists of DRAM in today’s computers.
• Secondary memory → Nonvolatile memory used to store programs and data between runs; typically consists of magnetic disks in today’s computers.
![Page 22: Lecture on Computer Components - Top Level View](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546c463eb4af9f75218b47b0/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

• The storage cells are processed in groups of fixed size called words.
• The number of bits in each word is often referred to as the word length of the computer
• Typical word length from 16 to 64 bits• The capacity of the memory is one factor
that characterizes the size of a computer• The time required to access one word is
called the memory access time.
![Page 24: Lecture on Computer Components - Top Level View](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546c463eb4af9f75218b47b0/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Operation of Memory
• Each memory location has a unique address
• Address from an instruction is copied to the MAR which finds the location in memory
• CPU determines if it is a store or retrieval
• Transfer takes place between the MDR and memory
• MDR is a two way register
![Page 25: Lecture on Computer Components - Top Level View](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546c463eb4af9f75218b47b0/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Memory Capacity
• Determined by two factors 1. Number of bits in the MAR
• LMC = 100 (00 to 99)• 2K where K = width of the register in bits
2. Size of the address portion of the instruction
• 4 bits allows 16 locations• 8 bits allows 256 locations• 32 bits allows 4,294,967,296 or 4 GB
• Important for performance– Insufficient memory can cause a processor
to work at 50% below performance
![Page 26: Lecture on Computer Components - Top Level View](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546c463eb4af9f75218b47b0/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
CPU: Three (3) Major Components• Arithmetic Logic Unit(ALU)
• Control Unit (CU)• Registers
– Example: Program counter (PC) or instruction pointer determines next instruction for execution
![Page 27: Lecture on Computer Components - Top Level View](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546c463eb4af9f75218b47b0/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Arithmetic and Logic Unit (ALU)
• Most computer operations are executed in ALU of the processor.
• Load the operands into memory – bring them to the processor – perform operation in ALU – store the result back to memory or retain in the processor.
• Registers• Fast control of ALU
![Page 28: Lecture on Computer Components - Top Level View](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546c463eb4af9f75218b47b0/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Control Unit• All computer operations are controlled by the
control unit.• The timing signals that govern the I/O
transfers are also generated by the control unit.
• Control unit is usually distributed throughout the machine instead of standing alone.
Operations of a computer: Accept information in the form of programs and
data through an input unit and store it in the memory
Fetch the information stored in the memory, under program control, into an ALU, where the information is processed
Output the processed information through an output unit
![Page 29: Lecture on Computer Components - Top Level View](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546c463eb4af9f75218b47b0/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
• Small, permanent storage locations within the CPU used for a particular purpose
• Manipulated directly by the Control Unit• Wired for specific function• Size in bits or bytes (not MB like
memory) • Can hold data, an address or an
instruction• How many registers does the LMC
have?

Special-Purpose Registers
• Program Count Register (PC)– Also called instruction pointer
• Instruction Register (IR)– Stores instruction fetched from memory
• Memory Address Register (MAR)• Memory Data Register (MDR) • Status Registers
– Status of CPU and currently executing program
– Flags (one bit Boolean variable) to track condition like arithmetic carry and overflow, power failure, internal computer error
![Page 32: Lecture on Computer Components - Top Level View](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546c463eb4af9f75218b47b0/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)

Instruction Cycle• Two steps:
– Fetch– Execute
![Page 36: Lecture on Computer Components - Top Level View](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546c463eb4af9f75218b47b0/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Fetch Cycle• Program Counter (PC) holds address
of next instruction to fetch• Processor fetches instruction from
memory location pointed to by PC• Increment PC
– Unless told otherwise
• Instruction loaded into Instruction Register (IR)
• Processor interprets instruction and performs required actions
![Page 37: Lecture on Computer Components - Top Level View](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546c463eb4af9f75218b47b0/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Execute Cycle• Processor-memory
– data transfer between CPU and main memory
• Processor I/O– Data transfer between CPU and I/O
module
• Data processing– Some arithmetic or logical operation on
data
• Control– Alteration of sequence of operations– e.g. jump
• Combination of above
