Fundamentals of Computers
What is a Computer?
A computer is an electronic device that manipulates information, or "data." It has the ability to store, retrieve, and process data. You can use a computer to type documents, send email, and browse the internet. You can also use it to handle spreadsheets, accounting, database management, presentations, games, and more.

Computer components
there are 2 basic components
1. Hardware2. Software
![Page 4: Unit - 1 Basic Computer Architecture P. Sugin Benzigar](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022012922/56649e635503460f94b5fa9d/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
how do computers work ???
Any device which can store , retrieve and process data needs something to control it.
Softwares ....
the ones that control the physical computer or (Hardware)
eg. programs running on Thermometers , Optometrist
devices , Mobile phones , computers , CARS (ESP) , Bikes (ABS).

how do computers work ???
all the data from all the peripheral devices are processed by
central processing unit
so the central processing unit is the brain of computer
the CPU is in the computer is in the mother board and often reffered as processor or core
eg.
pentium 4 , core2duo , i3 , i5 ......

more on CPU
the processors also determine the efficiency of the hardware .
every processor can do a specific amount of work in a specific amount of time.
the speed of the processor is measured in GHZ (giga hertz)
speed = frequency / second

Memory
the memory of the computer is classified into 2
1. primary - stores info. temporialy for faster access2. secondary or auxilary- for permanent use
eg of primary memory
RAM
eg of secondary memory
Hard disk

peripheral devices
what are peripheral devices
devices that cannot operate independently but will do fine with the help of a processor or an OS
or
any device that provides input to the computer and may or may not get output from the computer
eg.
printer , key board , mouse
![Page 10: Unit - 1 Basic Computer Architecture P. Sugin Benzigar](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022012922/56649e635503460f94b5fa9d/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
more on peripheral devices
Inorder to make the peripheral devices communicate with the computer each peripheral device has its own driver
A driver is a software the can make a communication bridge between the device and the computing device
the drivers may vary with devices and OS
Eg. USB devices , printers , scanners , camera
![Page 11: Unit - 1 Basic Computer Architecture P. Sugin Benzigar](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022012922/56649e635503460f94b5fa9d/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
more on peripheral devices
Certain devices may not need drivers
eg. mobile phones , Card readers
with the advent in OS , they can be treated as external storage devices

![Page 26: Unit - 1 Basic Computer Architecture P. Sugin Benzigar](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022012922/56649e635503460f94b5fa9d/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
ARITHMETIC LOGIC UNIT
• All calculations are performed in the Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU) of the computer.
• Whenever calculations are required, the control unit transfers the data from memory to ALU. Once the computations are done, the results are transferred to the memory by the control unit and then it is send to the output unit for displaying results.
![Page 27: Unit - 1 Basic Computer Architecture P. Sugin Benzigar](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022012922/56649e635503460f94b5fa9d/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
FUNCTIONS OF ALU
• It performs all arithmetic operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division).
• It performs all logic operations (Logic operations test various conditions encountered during processing and allow for different actions to be taken based on the results. )
• It does comparison and takes decision.

•Storage devices are divided into two categories:o Primary storage or Primary memory
or Main memoryo Secondary storage or Secondary
memory

FUNCTIONS OF STORAGE UNIT
• It received the data and instructions required for processing from the input unit.
• It stores the intermediate results.• It stores the final results before these results are released to the output unit.• It saves data for later use.
