Computer History:
• The first mechanical computer name is Analytical Engine.
• It was developed by Charles Babbage in 1833.
• The first computer programmer was Ada Byron in 1840.
• MITS(Micro Instrumentation and Telemetry System) made the first personal
computer Altair in 1974.
• The processor used in first personal computer was Intel 8080, It was developed in
1974.
Generation of Computers
Second Generation:
• Main Electronic Component – Transistor.
• Memory – Magnetic core and Magnetic tape/disk.
• Programming Language – Assembly Language.
• Power – Low Power consumption.
• Speed – Improvement of speed and Reliability.
• I/O Devices – Punched cards and Magnetic Tape.
• Example – IBM 1401, IBM 7090 etc…
Generations of Computers
Third Generation:
• Main Electronic Component – IC(Integrated Circuit).
• Memory – Large Magnetic core, Magnetic tape/disk.

• Language – Understandable natural language(Human Language).
• Size – Portable and small in size and have huge storage capacity.
• Speed – Improvement of speed, accuracy and Reliability.
• I/O Devices – Keyboard, Mouse, Trackpad, printer, Monitor etc...
• Example – Desktop, Laptop, Mobile Phones etc…
KAH Keyboard & mouse
Keyboard:
• Keyboard is the most common and very popular input device.
• The layout of the keyboard is like that of traditional typewriter.
• Keyboards are two sizes 84 keys or 101 keys.
Mouse:
• Mouse is the most popular pointing device.
• It is a very famous cursor-control device having a small ball at its base.
• The ball senses the movement of the mouse and send the signals
To the CPU.
KAH Monitor
Monitor:
• A computer monitor is an output device that displays information's in
pictorial or textual form.
• A computer monitor is also one of the important part of a computer
system.
Types of monitors:
• CRT(Cathode Ray Tube)
• LCD(Liquid Crystal Display)
• LED(Light Emitting Diode) CRT LCD LED
KAH Processor
processor:
• An computer processor is also Known as CPU(Central Processing Unit).
• It is considered as the brain of the computer.
• It performs all type of data processing operations.
• It stores data, intermediate results and Instructions.
• It controls the operation of all parts of the computer.
• Popular processor manufacturer’s are Intel, AMD.
KAH Motherboard
Motherboard:
• The motherboard is the backbone of the computer.
• It ties all components together at one spot.
• Total motherboard functionality is necessary for a computer to work well.
• Popular motherboard manufacturers are Intel , AMD, Gigabyte, MSI.
KAH HDD & SSD
HDD(HDD):
• HDD Stands for Hard Disk Drive.
• An hard disk is an magnetic storage medium for a computer.
• It is a flat circular plate made of aluminum or glass and coated with magnetic
material.
• Hard Disk for personal computers can store terabytes of information.
KAH HDD & SSD
SSD(ROM):
• SSD Stands for Solid State Drive.
• It is smaller and faster than hard disk.
• It allows pc to be thinner and more lightweight.
• SSDs are most common storage drives today.
• SSD is costlier than Hard Disk.
KAH RAM
RAM:
• RAM stands for Random Access Memory.
• It is a read/write memory which stores data until the machine is working.
• It is also known as temporary memory.
• Ram is volatile in nature.
• Ram is small both in physical size and the amount of data it can hold.
