How Computers Work?
13
Integrated Circuit: Very thin pieces of semiconductive material with microscopic elements such as cables, transistors, capacitors, logic gates, and resistances.
Central processing unit: It is designed to interpret and carry out the basic instructions that make a computer work.
Arithmetic and logic unit: The unit that executes the arithmetic operations such as additions, subtractions, multiplication and division; it also executes the logical ones: greater than, less than, equal to.
Control Unit: It is the unit that executes each one of the instructions of a program and directs the flow of data, controlling the resources such as the memory and the input and output devices.
Clock Speed: The number of instructions executed in a second.
Hertz: The execution of a cycle per second.
Mhz: Millions of cycles per second.
Ghz: Billions of cycles per second.
Cache Memory: The high speed memory that is located in the RAM and the microprocessor. Its objective is to store frequently used information.
RAM memory:It stands for Random-Access Memory and it refers to the group of chips that work as a temporary memory to save programs and data that are in process while the computer is on.
ROM memory: It stands for Read Only Memory, and it is a chip that works as a memory, saving all the data and instructions permanently.
CMOS Memory: It is a reading, writing memory that saves time, hour, and characteristics of the hardware that is installed on the computer.
Analog Signal: Continuous signals in the form of a wave.
Digital Signal: Discontinuous signals used to represent data.
Binary System:The numbering system used by computers, it consists of ones and zeros.
