1.1 HARDWARE - is a solid-state electronic
flash memory data storage device used with
digital cameras, handheld and tablet/mobile
computers and other electronics.

Four components of computer hardware:


Input device,
Output device,
Process device and
Storage device.
A. Input Devices

- Accepts data and instructions from


the user or from another computer system.
Input Devices

1. Keyboard
- The first input device
developed for the PC. Data is
transferred to the PC over a
short cable with a circular 6-
pin Mini-din connector that
plugs into the back of the
motherboard.
Input Devices

2. Mouse
- The most common
'pointing device' used in
PCs. Every mouse has
two buttons and most
have one or two scroll
wheels.
Input Devices

3. Light pen
- A light-sensitive stylus
wired to a video terminal
used to draw pictures or
select menu options. The
user brings the pen to
the desired point on
screen and presses the
pen button to make
Input Devices
4. Digitizer tablet
- A graphics drawing
tablet used for sketching
new images or tracing
old ones. Also called a
"graphics tablet," the
user contacts the surface
of the device with a
wired or wireless pen or
puck.
Input Devices

5. Scanner
- A device that can read Barcode reader
text or illustrations
printed on paper and
translates the
information into a form
Image scanner
the computer can use.
Input Devices
6. Microphone
- Audio input devices also known as
speech or voice recognition systems
that allow a user to send audio signals
to a computer for processing,
recording, or carrying out commands.
Audio input devices such as
microphones allow users to speak to
the computer in order to record a
voice message or navigate software.
B. Output Devices

- Any piece of computer hardware that


displays results after the computer has
processed the input data that has been
entered.
Output Devices
C.

- is the computer’s circuitry in the system unit.

- It plays an important role in processing


operations.

- It is used to process data, using instructions


from the program.
PROCESS DEVICE

1. Motherboard
- The main circuit board
of a computer. It contains
all the circuits and
components that run the
computer.
PROCESS DEVICE
2. CPU (Central Processing
Unit)
– It is the brain of the computer.
It performs all of the instructions
and calculations that are needed
and manages the flow of
information through a computer.
PROCESS DEVICE
3. RAM – (Random Access Memory)

RAM is volatile, meaning it holds data only


when the power is on. When the power is off,
RAM's contents are lost.
PROCESS DEVICE
4. Video Card/GPU (Graphics Processing
Unit)
- also called a display card, graphics
card, display adapter, or graphics adapter is an
expansion card which generates a feed of
output images to a display device (such as a
computer monitor).
D. STORAGE DEVICE

- stores data and programs. These hold


data,
information, and programs permanently.
STORAGE DEVICE

1.Hard Disk Drive (HDD)


- also known as hard drive,
- is a magnetic storage
device
that is installed
inside the computer.

The hard drive is used as


permanent
storage for data.
STORAGE DEVICE

2. Floppy Disk - is a removable


data storage magnetic medium
that housed in a rigid plastic
cartridge measuring 3.5 inches
square and about 2
millimeters thick.
Also called a "3.5-inch diskette,"
it can store up to 1.44
megabytes (MB) of data.
STORAGE DEVICE
3. Optical Storage - Used to store digital informatio
Examples: Blu – Ray disc, Compact Disc and
Digital Versatile Disc
STORAGE DEVICE
4. USB Flash Drive - is a plug-and-play
portable storage device that uses
flash memory and is lightweight enough to
attach to a key chain.

A USB drive can be used in place of a


floppy disk, Zip drive disk, or CD.
STORAGE DEVICE

5. Memory Card
- is a solid-state electronic flash
memory data storage device
used with digital cameras,
handheld and tablet/mobile
computers and other electronics
Identify the different hardware parts or components of a PC.
