Study Notes
- Computer system has two types of components: software and hardware.
- Software provides instructions to perform specific tasks, while hardware are physical components.
- Hardware components can be internal (placed inside computer case) or external (peripheral devices).
- Examples of internal hardware components include motherboard, power supply unit, memory, hard disks, microprocessor, and RAM modules.
- Examples of external hardware components include display unit, keyboard, mouse, and printer.
- Computer case provides a protected enclosure to organize and assemble internal hardware components.
- Motherboard interconnects various components and provides connection sockets for microprocessor, main memory, hard disk, graphics card, and controller chips.
- Microprocessor is the brain of the computer and provides processing power.
- Power supply unit provides stable electrical power supply to hardware components.
- RAM is the main memory of the computer and stores data and program instructions during program execution.
