CPU EXAM
A CPU is the brain of a computer, Short for "central processing unit," the CPU interprets
commands before executing them. The CPU is also called a processor or central
processor. - answer What is the function of a CPU?
INPUT: Keyboard, Trackball, Joystick, Digital Camera, Microphone, Touch Screen,
Video digitizer, Scanner, or Graphics Tablet.
OUTPUT: Monitor, Printer, Speaker, Projector, Buzzer
,Motors, Switched Outputs, Lights, Mechanical Devices. - answer List an input and
output device
The major differences between primary and secondary storage are in how the central
processing unit (CPU) on a computer can access the storage and the way in which the
storage is used. Primary storage typically refers to storage or memory directly
connected to and accessed by a computer's CPU, and is typically volatile memory
referred to as random access memory (RAM). Secondary storage, on the other hand,
does not directly connect to a CPU and is non-volatile memory. Other differences
between the two include the amount of data typically stored on such memory and the
speed at which the data is processed. - answerWhat is the difference between primary
and secondary memory?
This part of the of the CPU is the one that is in charge of all the operations being carried
out.
- It is responsible to direct the system to execute instructions.
- It helps in communication between the memory and the arithmetic logical unit.
- It also aids in the loading of data and instructions residing in the secondary memory to
the main memory as required. - answerWhat is the function of the Control Unit?
The characteristics of the ALU are as follows:
- The ALU is responsible for performing all logical and arithmetic operations.
- Some of the arithmetic operations are as follows: addition, subtraction, multiplication
and division.
- Some of the logical operations are as follows: comparison between numbers, letter
and or special characters.
