  1. Integrated Technology Unit 2- Computer Hardware

  2. Objectives • Identify system components • Describe the role of the central processing unit • Define computer memory • Identify types of storage devices • Care for storage media

  3. Case • Box that contains components • Tower case • All-in-one

  4. Monitor • Displays the images • LCD or LED • Very thin • CRT (old) • Very bulky

  5. What Do You Have? • Homework: • Take a picture of your computer & monitor • With you in the picture • Bring in on your flash drive • Is it a desktop or laptop? • What kind of monitor do you have?

  6. Motherboard • Circuit board • Connects all components • Hard drive • Memory • CPU • Bus • Data transfer to components

  7. How fast is your computer?- CPU • Processor or “Brain” • Reads/interprets instructions • Performs calculations to complete tasks • Speed= Gigahertz (GHz) • 2.2Ghz • 3GHz • 1979= 8 MHz • 1993= 200 MHz • 2013= 3 GHz

  8. How much memory ?- RAM • Active programs/data are held • Stores what you are creating • “Short-term memory” • Disappears when computer is off • Measured in bytes • Gigabytes (GB) • 4GB-8GB is standard now

  9. What Do You Have? • Start, Control Panel, System

  10. How does your computer boot?- ROM • BIOS or ROM • On motherboard • Has instructions to boot your computer • Read only- no store data • Info stays when power is off

  11. Boot Process • Power on the PC • ROM BIOS checked for location of OS • Usually on the hard drive • Loads OS from hard drive into RAM • OS Starts • You log in

  12. Review • What speed is a CPU measured in? • GHz • Which memory holds your active, running programs or what you copied? • RAM • Which type of monitor is shown? • CRT

  13. Review • Which memory goes away when power is off? • RAM • What holds the computer’s boot instructions? • BIOS ROM • What is the brains of a computer? • CPU- what does it stand for? • The CPU, RAM, and ROM are all on what component? • Motherboard

  14. Store data permanently Long-term storage GB or TB 320GB 1TB Inside Case External HD USB Storage Device- Hard Drive

  15. Optical uses a laser to read/write data CD or DVD-ROM= Read Only CD or DVD-R= Record Once CD or DVD-RW= Rewritable CD= 80 min./ 700MB DVD= 2 hrs./ 4.7GB BD= 4.5 hrs. of HD/ 25GB Storage Device- Optical

  16. What Do You Have? • Size Hard Drive: • Start, Computer, right-click on C: • Type of Optical Drive: • Take a picture of front

  17. Storage Device- SSD • No moving parts inside • SSD HD • In thin laptops • Memory Cards • SD, SDHC, microSD, CF, Memory Stick • USB Flash drive

  18. Storage Device- Floppy Disks 8-inch 5 ¼” 3 ½” Magnetic Storage- 3.5”=1.44MB

  19. Caring for Storage Media • Keep magnetic devices away from TV’s & monitors • Have magnetic fields; may erase • Avoid extreme temps • Like in a car • Hold optical media by edges • Keep discs in sturdy case

  20. Types of Computers Project • In groups of 2, make a poster… • Title of device • Big picture of device • It’s use & where it’s used • Cost ($, $$, $$$, $$$$) • Special Features • Desktop • Laptop/Notebook • Netbook • Tablet • Workstation • Servers • Smartphone • GPS • Music/Media Player • Game System • E-Book Reader

  21. Review • T/F. Hard drives are used to temporarily store what you are creating. • False • Which removable storage would you use to copy pictures from one PC to another? Flash Drive, Memory Card, Floppy, or Ext. HD • Flash, Mem Card, or Ext HD • Which optical storage would be used to store music and then later erased to store photos? • CD-RW
