Study Notes

Computer Peripherals and Core Computing Unit

  • Computer peripherals are external devices connected to the computer to enhance its functionality, such as keyboard, mouse, scanner, printer, speaker, and monitor.
  • The core computing unit consists of the central processing unit (CPU), memory (RAM), and storage devices (hard drive or solid-state drive).

Role of Peripherals and Case

  • Adding more peripherals to a computer enables it to perform additional tasks, such as printing documents, scanning images, and playing audio.
  • The case surrounding the core computing elements protects the internal components from dust, moisture, and physical damage, while also providing a structure to mount and organize the components.

Excluded from Core Computing Unit

  • The power supply unit (PSU) is not considered part of the core computing unit, although it is an essential component that provides power to the computer's internal components.
