Plymouth State University Computer Hardware How to Choose a Multimedia Computer

Plymouth State University ENIAC - The First Electronic Digital Computer

Plymouth State University The Four Functions of a Computer INPUT PROCESSING OUTPUT STORAGE INFORMATION DATA

Plymouth State University The System Unit Power Supply System Board Hard Drives or CD-ROM Drives Floppy Drive Expansion Card

Plymouth State University Directions of Computer Development Miniaturization –Transistors –Integrated circuits Solid state Semiconductor Chip

Plymouth State University Integrated Circuit IC, or "chip" Made from Silicon Includes Transistors, Resistors & Capacitors

Plymouth State University Steps in Manufacture of a Microchip 1 Make large drawing. Reduce drawing hundreds of times to microscopic size. 2 Duplicate reduced photo many times on sheet.

Plymouth State University Etched Silicon Wafer

Plymouth State University Future Developments in Processing & Storage Moore’s Law –Gordon Moore predicted the number of transistors on a silicon chip will double every 18 months –It has held up since the 1960s!

Plymouth State University The System Unit: The Basics The CPU –Older CPUs processing speeds are in MegaHertz 1 MHz = 1 Million ticks per second –Current CPUs processing speeds are in GigaHertz 1 GHz = 1 Billion ticks per second –The faster a CPU runs, the more power it consumes, and the more heat it generates

Plymouth State University Secondary Storage, Primary Storage and the CPU Main Memory (RAM) CPU Secondary Storage (Disk) Load Execute

Plymouth State University How Memory Works: RAM, ROM, & Flash Types of memory chips: 1.RAM - Random Access Memory, used to temporarily hold software instructions and data 2.ROM 3.Flash

Plymouth State University How Memory Works: RAM, ROM, & Flash Types of memory chips: 1.RAM 2.ROM - Read-Only Memory, which cannot be written on or erased by the computer user. Contains fixed start-up instructions 3.Flash

Plymouth State University How Memory Works: RAM, ROM, CMOS, & Flash Types of memory chips: 1.RAM 2.ROM 3.Flash - can be erased and reprogrammed more than once
