CPU performs all types of data processing operations.
CPU stores data, intermediate results, and instructions (program).
CPU controls the operation of all parts of the computer.
CPU
CPU itself has the following three components: Memory or Storage Unit, Control Unit, Arithmetic Logic Unit.
CPU
A) input unit
B) control unit
C) output unit
D) arithmetic & logic unit
E) memory unit
The memory or storage unit supplies information to other units of the computer when needed.
Memory or Storage Unit - is also known as internal storage unit or the main memory or the primary storage or Random Access Memory (RAM).
Memory or Storage Unit - is also known as internal storage unit or the main memory or the primary storage or Random Access Memory (RAM).
Memory or Storage Unit - is also known as internal storage unit or the main memory or the primary storage or Random Access Memory (RAM).
Memory or Storage Unit - is also known as internal storage unit or the main memory or the primary storage or Random Access Memory (RAM).
The memory or storage unit's size affects speed, power, and capability.
The two types of memory in the computer are primary memory and secondary memory.
The memory or storage unit's size affects speed, power, and capability.
The storage unit stores all the data and the instructions required for processing.
The storage unit stores intermediate results of processing.
The storage unit stores the final results of processing before these results are released to an output device.
All inputs and outputs are transmitted through the main memory.
Control unit controls the operations of all parts of the computer but does not carry out any actual data processing operations.
Control unit is responsible for controlling the transfer of data and instructions among other units of a computer.
Control unit manages and coordinates all the units of the computer.
Control unit obtains the instructions from the memory, interprets them, and directs the operation of the computer.
Control unit communicates with Input/Output devices for the transfer of data or results from storage, but it does not process or store data.
The ALU consists of two subsections namely, the arithmetic section and the logic section.
Function of arithmetic section is to perform arithmetic operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. All complex operations are done by making repetitive use of the above operations.
Function of logic section is to perform logic operations such as comparing, selecting, matching, and merging of data.
