Hardware Device

Introduction
A personal computer is made up of multiple physical components of computer hardware. Computer hardware is the basic components to build any computer. In this Project we are going to introduce you the computer hardware and how can they work and affect the computer. We will talking about: Input Devices, output devices, processing and storage.

Input Devices:
Input devices are devices we use to put information into a computer. This information consists of either instructions for the computer or data that we want to store on the computer. In this section we will introduces some types of computer input devices. Keyboard Scanner Brain-Computer Interface Devices

The output devices:


Output is processed data or information; they let the computer tell you what it has processed. Without output devices the user would not be able to communicate with the computer. Examples of output devices printer, speakers and portable projector.

How A Computer Process Data:

Two components handle processing in a computer; the central processing unit CPU, and the memory. Both are located on the motherboard which connects the CPU to all the other hardware devices.

The CPU:

The CPU is the brain of the computer, the place where data is manipulated. Every CPU has at least two basic parts; these are the control unit and the arithmetic logic unit .

The control unit The arithmetic logic unit

Memory:

The CPU contains the basic instructions needed to operate the computer, but it cannot store entire program or large sets of data permanently. The CPU needs to have millions of bytes of space where it can quickly read and write programs and data while they are being used. This area is called memory. This electronic memory allows the CPU to store and retrieve data very quickly. The CPU is attached to two kinds of memory: RAM which is volatile and ROM which is nonvolatile.

Nonvolatile Memory Volatile memory

storage:

A necessary feature that every computer must have is the ability to save or store information; there are two kinds of storage (RAM) a random access memory hold or stores data and programs for a short time. It is the type of memory that computers use to process programs (RAM) sometimes provides only temporary (RAM) sometimes referred to as primary storage. Secondary Storage provides volatile Storage. Using secondary storage devices; Such as: floppy disk and hard disk (HDD). Secondary storage devices can be retrained after the compute shut down. This is accomplished by writing files to and reading files from secondary storage devices.

Conclusion:

In conclusion, computer hardware consists of the physical components of our computers: The parts, devices, buttons and ports that we can touch and physically manipulate. Computers hardware comes in two basic varieties: external and internal. the hardware are the parts of the computer itself including the Central Processing Unit (CPU) and related microchips and micro-circuitry, keyboards, monitors, case and drives such as hard, CD, DVD, floppy and optical.
