5. CPU
After completing this presentation. The
students will be able to know.
What is the function of CPU and how it
works.
This presentation also describes the
importance of the central processing
unit.
6. CPU (Central Processing Unit)
CPU is the brain of the computer system.
All the processing is done by the CPU.
It has two main parts.
CU
ALU
7. CU (Control Unit)
The Control Unit (CU) is a component of
a computer’s central processing unit
(CPU) that direct operation of the
processor.
It tells the computer’s memory,
arithmetically and logically.
8. ALU(Arithmetic & Logic Unit)
An arithmetic logic unit (ALU) is a
digital circuit used to perform
arithmetic and logic operations.
It represents the fundamental building
block of the central processing unit
(CPU) of a computer.
The ALU is divided into an AU and LU.
ALU
AU
LU
9. AU (Arithmetic Unit)
The AU performs the arithmetic
operations.
Example.
Addition +
Subtraction -
Multiplication x
Divisions /
10. LU (Logic Unit)
LU is also part of ALU. It compares
two quantities and gives answer in the
form of True and False.
Example.
2 < 3 = T
5 > 6 = F
3 > 6 = F
6 > 3 = T
11. Cache Memory
It is a very high speed memory which
is used to increase / enhance the
capability of the computer.
12. RAM (Random Access Memory)
RAM is the primary storage device, a
RAM chip is volatile and requires a
constant source of power to retain
information. When power is lost or
turned off , a RAM chip will lose the
information stored on it.
13. Types of RAM
Types of RAM
FPM RAM (Fast Page Mode RAM)
EDO RAM (Extended Data Out RAM)
S RAM (Static RAM)
D RAM (Dynamic RAM)
DDR RAM (Double Data Rate RAM)
DDR2 RAM (Double Data Rate 2 RAM)
14. HDD (Hard Disk Drive)
The hard disk drive is the main, and usually
largest, data storage hardware device in a
computer.
The operating system, software titles and
most other files are stored in the hard disk
drive.
