Answer the following questions.

Q.No.1 List and describe the main components of system. (Mark=4)

Answer:

The main components of system:

 Input devices
 CPU
 Output devices
Input devices:

The data that is given to the computer is called input. Input devices are used to input
data and instructions given to the computer. Most commonly input devices are keyboard, mouse
and microphone etc. Instruction can be:
  Programs
 Commands
 User response

CPU:

CPU stands for central processing unit. It is also called the brain of computer. All computers
must have a central processing unit. CPU consists of two parts:

 Control unit
 Arithmetic and Logic unit
The primary work of CPU is to convert data from input, process it and produced output in useful
information.

Output devices:

The devices which are used to receive data and information from the computer are
called output devices. In other words, Output is the data that has been processed into useful form.
Most commonly output devices are monitor, printer and speaker etc. Output can be in two forms:

 Soft copy
 Hard copy

Q No.2: Writer short answers of the following in 2-3 Lines each. (Mark=4)

 Mouse:
A mouse is an input device that rolls around on a flat surface and controls the
pointer on a display screen. A mouse is a palm size device with a ball built into the bottom. Usually
mouse has three buttons. This type mouse called scroll mouse. The ball in the mouse is called scroll
wheel. A mouse can perform:
 Left mouse button
 Right mouse button
 Wheel button

 Touch screen:
Touch screen is an input device. Touch screen is a display screen that
receives input from the touch of the finger. The screen is covered by plastic layer. Touch
screen is a sensitive device. A user can interacts directly with computer by touching the
words on the screen.

 Monitor:
The monitor is a most commonly used output device. Monitor is also called display
or screen. Monitor or display devices are used to get output on the screen. Monitor is like a small
television. It is used to display soft copy output. There are two basic types of monitor:
 CRT (cathode ray tube)
 Flat panel monitor

 RAM:
 Ram stand for Random Access Memory. Ram is temporary memory. It is store data
and instruction temporarily. Ram is a volatile memory. Ram is also called main memory or primary
storage. Ram has two types:

 Dynamic ram
 Static ram

No. 3: Differentiate between PROM and EEPROM (Mark=4)

Answer:

PROM EEPROM
1. PROM stands for Programmable Read only 1. EEPROM stands for Electronically Erasable
memory. Programmable Read Only Memory.

2. PROM is permanent memory. 2. EEPROM is temporary memory.

3. Data cannot be changed in PROM. 3. Data can be changed in EEPROM.

4. The user can write instructions on PROM only 4. The user can write instructions on EEPROM
once. many times.

5. It provides less usability as instructions are 5. It provides more usability as instructions are
written only once. written many times.

6. There is an error during writing on PROM, it 6. There is an error during writing on EEPROM it
becomes unusable. can still be used again.

7. The instruction written by user cannot be 7. The instruction written by user Can be
removed in PROM. removed in EEPROM.

8. It can be modified by user only once. 8. It can be modified by user repeatedly.

9. PROM is not commonly used. 9. EEPROM is commonly used.
10. The PROM chip was commonly used in 10 EEPROM is a memory chip that we can erase
earlier computer. and reprogram using electric charge.
