Hardware: Input,
Processing, and
Output Devices
Hardware
• Hardware
 Any machinery
(most of which uses
digital circuits) that
assists in the input,
processing, storage,
and output activities
of an information
system.
Some Examples of Hardware
LECTURE OBJECTIVES
1. To learn the functions and elements of a motherboard
2. To learn how microprocessors function
3. To learn the purpose of cache memory and
characteristics other types of memory
4. To learn the latest processors
5. To learn the latest buses
THE MAIN OBJECTIVE
These hardware slides will teach you how to
purchase a computer so that you get the
maximum value for your money.
These slides will aid you in understanding enough
about hardware so you can make
wise purchases for you and your company.

 Million pulses or
In years past, the pulse generator, called an oscillator,
cycles per second,
was a chip on the motherboard. Today, the oscillator is
built into the processor without a separate component

cycles per second.
Character Stored in Memory
• Byte
 Eight bits together represent a single character of data, such as any
character on a computer keyboard.
When 8 bits are used to store a single character, the code is typically ASCII,
American Standard Code for Information Interchange.
 Today's computers use 16 bits ( 2 bytes) to store a character so that most
languages can be represented. It uses a code call Unicode (16 bit code) that
incorporates ASCII code.
Bytes are stored in
memory. Memory
provides working
storage for program
instructions.

Word length
• Word length (computer word)
 Number of bits the CPU can process at any
one time.
 Computer words vary from 8, 16, 32, 64,
128 bits, depending on the CPU.
 BIT
 Binary Digit - 0 or 1.
 Today's latest processors for PC's have
64 bit words, and they are called 64-bit
processors.
Bus
• Bus
• Physical (Copper Traces) wiring connecting
computer components.
• Try to think of this as a single lane in a
highway.
• Bus Width
 Number bus lanes making up the bus.
 Try to think of this as a road or highway
made up of many lanes. Instead of cars,
electrical pulses travel down these lanes.

64 bits are accessed 1,600,000,000 times
per second. Thus 8 bytes are accessed
1,600,000,000 times per second.
Thus 8 x 1,600,000 ,000 = 12.800 GB/s
transfer rate.
64 bits are accessed 1,333,000,000
times per second. Thus 8 bytes are
accessed 1,333,000,000 times per
second.
Thus 8 x 1,333,000 ,000 = 10.664
GB/s transfer rate.
64 bits are accessed 800,000 ,000
times per second. Thus 8 bytes are
accessed 800,000 ,000 times per

Thus 8 x 800,000 ,000 = 6.4 GB/s
transfer rate.
M stands for Mega which equals 1,000,000 (one million)
G stands for Giga which equals 1,000,000 ,000 (one billion)
B stands for one byte (8 bits equals one byte)
b stands for bit (One byte contains 8 bits.)
When you purchase a computer be sure there is a
match between the speed of the microprocessor
and the microprocessor’s the highway between
the processor and the memory and the memory
speed. Faster speed usually, but not always,
means faster processing.

Working Transistor comprised of
a single atom.
This technology may shatter Moore’s Law
Full Article
Moore's Law could be safe for another decade or so. An international team of scientists has demonstrated a
working transistor comprised of a single atom–nearly 100 times smaller than the 22-nanometer cutting-edge
transistors fabricated by Intel.
More importantly, the research team led by Michelle Simmons of the University of New South Wales in Sydney was
able to show a method for repeating the process with great accuracy and in a fashion that is compatible with the
CMOS technology used in transistor fabrication today.
"This is the first time anyone has shown control of a single atom in a substrate with this level of precise accuracy,"
said Simmons, who worked with colleagues from the Korea Institute of Science and Technology Information,
Purdue University, the University of Sydney, the University of Melbourne, and the University of New South Wales
on the project.
The "law" associated with Intel co-founder Gordon Moore predicts a steady rate at which the density of transistors
on silicon-based semiconductors increases over time. That steady procession of ever-smaller computer circuitry has
held up for decades, but as the size of transistors approaches atomic scales, there have been serious questions as to
whether Moore's Law can last much longer than another five years or so.
Volatile vs. Nonvolatile Memory
• Volatile Memory
 Loses contents when electrical power is turned off.
• Nonvolatile memory
 Keeps contents when electrical power is turned off.
Multiprocessing
• Multiprocessing
 Two or more PROCERSSORS or CORES executing
instructions in a single computer.
• Coprocessor
 Speeds processing by executing specific types of
instructions while the CPU works on another
processing activity. Examples: Processors
(Coprocessors) on video card, sound card, Keyboard.
Parallel Processing
• Parallel processing
 A form of
multiprocessing
that speeds the
processing by
linking several
processors to
operate at the same
time or in parallel.
