TYPES AND PARTS OF THE COMPUTER
WHAT IS COMPUTER?
COMPUTER
derived from the Latin word compute, which means to calculate.
Is an electronic devices that can be used to process and
manipulate data or information.
defined as a fast electronic device that processes the input data
according to the instructions given by the programmer/user and
provides the desired information as output.
– Accepts data – Manipulates data – Produces results – Stores results
DIFFERENT TYPES OF COMPUTER
ANALOG
Computers that represent and store data in continuously varying
-
physical quantities such as current, voltage or frequency.
DIGITAL
-Digital computers are mainly general-purpose computers that
represent and store data in discrete quantities or numbers. In these
computers, all processing is done in terms of numeric representation
(Binary Digits) of data and information.
HYBRID
incorporate the technology of both analog and digital computers.

COMPONENTS OF
COMPUTER
MAJOR ELEMENTS OF COMPUTER SYSTEM
HARDWARE
-Is the physical components of computer such as
input devices, storage devices and output devices.
SOFTWARE
-Is the program installed in the computer system to make
the computer works. There are two kinds of software:
1. System Software
2. Application Software
COMPUTER HARDWARE
- Refers to the physical and mechanical
components of a computer
- It consists of devices such as circuits boards,
chips, monitors, disks, disks drives, modems,
keyboard and printers.
Ex. Trackballs, touch pad,
Can be built into the computer, like the joysticks, light pen, game
controllers, scanner barcode
keyboard in a laptop, or it can be connected readers, video and digital
INPUT to the computer by a cable.
cameras, microphone and so
on
Ex. RAM Refers to the ability
Random-Access of computers to
memory, Hard
Disk, USB Flash
STORAGE store and retain data
Drive, Optical Disc in memory.
Computers not only remember
information, but also process PROCESS
data.
We can feed instructions to computers, there are also
Ex. monitor,
ways for computers to communicate to the outside
world, beginning with you. OUTPUT speakers
and printers.
Functions of Hardware
It is use to hold all the
other components together
and protect the
sensitive electronic
parts from the outside
elements
SYSTEM UNIT
MONITOR
•screen that displays what is
going on in the computer
Mouse
let you feed instructions to the computer
by simply pointing and clicking in a
graphical environment.
Keyboard
main input device for most computers
• Motherboard– main circuit have a direct
or indirect connection to the
motherboard.
• Main Memory/RAM – allows
computers to store and retain
information
• System Case – casing
Processor– brain of the computer that
handles the flow of all data.
Floppy Disk Drive– perhaps the
slowest form of long term-
secondary storage for the
computer is floppy disk with 1.44
MB disk drive.
Hard disk – storage device that holds the
operating system and other programs
Video/ Graphics Card– onboard video chipsets
which should be enough for most users.
- Use in graphics-intensive applications such as
playing video games, editing pictures and movies
and etc.
• Sound Card – converts data into
sound to be sent to speakers or
converts sounds to digital formats.
• Cable Connectors – used to communicate with the
motherboard and other components of the computer.
Printer
CD-ROM/DVD-ROM Drive
Reads CDs or DVDs
Power Supply
Network Card/Modem – LAN of WIFI
COMPUTER SOFTWARE
- Computer program
- Refers to the instructional information that directs the
activities of the computer hardware or helps the user
control the hardware components of the computer.
- Word processors, databases, spreadsheets, e-mail
programs, web browsers and everything else the
computer runs and executes are all kinds of software.
