Nt1310 Unit 5 Essay
• Case - A case is a sort of chassis for the internals of a computer and acts as a kind of protection from dust etc. It is also more appealing to look at rather than the internals of the computer.
• Power Supply - Power supply unit is a component in a computer which turns the power coming from the socket (AC) to a usable and acceptable low-voltage power for the PC (DC).
• Motherboard - A motherboard is a printed circuit and is essentially the main core of and device. It distributes power to all the hardware components.
• CPU – Register, ALU, control unit - The CPU is a type of processor which acts as the brains of a computer and is an important part of any computer.
• ZIF socket - A ZIF socket is used to mount electronic devices and designed not to …show more content…
Nothing like the main memory (RAM), ROM remembers its data even when the computer is powered off.
• CACHE -
• BIOS - Basic Input/output system is the program a computer's microprocessor uses to get the computer system to start soon after you have powered it up. Also, it looked after data movement amongst the computer's operating system and connected to many devices.
• CMOS - Complementary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor also known as CMOS is an attached, battery driven semiconductor chip within the computer that contains data. This type of data can vary from the factory setting built into the computer to simply your digitally displayed date/time.
• System buses - System buses are a trail made up of cables and connectors that are used to transfer data amongst a computer's microprocessor and the RAM. The buses create a communication route for the data and switch signals moving amongst the main parts of a computer system.
• Ports and connectors -
• Hard Drive Configuration and controllers e.g. SATA, IDE, EIDE, master, slave -
• Specialised Cards e.g. sound cards, graphics cards
