The computer itself the hardware has many parts, but the critical components fall into four categories
1. Processor
2. Memory
3. Input & Output Devices
4. Storage
Every type of computer contains these four types of hardware.
The processor
The procedure of converting raw data into useful information is called processing. To perform this conversion or transformation, computer uses two components:
Processor
Memory
The processor is like the brain of computerit organizes and carries out instructions
that come from either the user or the
software. in a personal computer, the
processor usually consists of one or
more microprocessor, which are slivers
of silicon or other material etched with many tiny electronic circuits. To process data or complete an instruction from a user or a program, the computer pass the electricity through the circuits.
A personal computer's processor is usually a single chip or a set of contained on a circuit board. In some powerful computers, the processors consists of many chips. processor They re mounted on the motherboard.
Memory
Memory is like an scratch padinside the computer. When you
launch a program, it is loaded and run from the memory. Data loaded
into and run from the the
memory. Data used by the
computer program is also loaded
into the memory for fast access .
As new data enter into the
computer, it is also stored into the
memory but only temporarily. The
most common type of memory is
called random access memory,
RAM.
