peripheral devices of

TOPIC:
PERIPHERAL
DEVICES
Peripherals are connected directly to a computer but it does not contribute to the computer's
primary function, such as computing. It helps end users access and use the functionalities of a
computer. It is commonly divided into three kinds: input devices, output devices, and storage
devices.
An input device converts incoming data and instructions into a pattern of electrical signals
in binary code that are comprehensible to a digital computer. It is also used to enter data
to a computer. Input Devices includes:
SCANNER
works more like a photocopy
machine. It is used when some
information is available on
paper and it is to be transferred
to the hard disk of the
computer for further
manipulation.
DIGITIZER
(Also known as GRAPHIC
TABLET) it converts graphic
and pictorial data into binary
inputs. A graphic tablet as
digitizer is used for fine
works of drawing and image
manipulation applications.
BARCODE DEVICE
is used for reading bar coded
data (data in the form of light
and dark lines). Bar coded
data is generally used in
labelling goods, numbering
the books, etc. It may be a
handheld scanner or may be
embedded in a stationary
scanner.
JOYSTICK
Joystick is also a pointing device,
which is used to move the
cursor position on a monitor
screen. It is a stick having a
spherical ball at its both lower
and upper ends. The lower
spherical ball moves in a socket.
The joystick can be moved in all
four directions.
MICROPHONE
is used for various
applications such as adding
sound to a multimedia
presentation or for mixing
music.
MOUSE
is the most popular pointing device. It
is a very famous cursor-control
device having a small palm size box
with a round ball at its base, which
senses the movement of the mouse
and sends corresponding signals to
the CPU when the mouse buttons are
pressed.
KEYBOARD
is the most common and very
popular input device which helps
to input data to the computer.
The layout of the keyboard is like
that of traditional typewriter,
although there are some
additional keys provided for
performing additional functions.
are any peripheral
that receives data
from a computer,
usually for display,
projection, or physical
reproduction.
HEADPHONES
sometimes referred to as
earphones, are a hardware
output device that either
plugged into a computer line out
or speakers. Headphones allow
you to listen to audio or watch a
movie without disturbing people
around you
PROJECTOR
is an output device that can take
images generated by a computer
or Blu-ray player and reproduce
them by projection onto a
screen, wall, or another surface.
In most cases, the surface
projected onto is large, flat, and
lightly colored
MONITOR

is made up of circuitry, a screen, a power supply,


buttons to adjust screen settings, and casing that
holds all of these components.
PRINTER
is an external hardware output device
that takes the electronic data stored
on a computer or other device and
generates a hard copy of it. Types of
printer includes 3D printer, AIO (all-in-
one) printer, Dot matrix printer Inkjet
printer, Laser printer, LED printer, MFP
(multifunction printer) Plotter, Thermal
printer
BRAILLE READER
also called a braille display, is an
electronic device that allows a
blind person to read the text
displayed on a computer
monitor. The computer sends the
text to the output device, where
it's converted to Braille and
"displayed" by raising rounded
pins through a flat surface
PLOTTER
is a computer hardware device
much like a printer that is used
for printing vector graphics.
Instead of toner, plotters use a
pen, pencil, marker, or another
writing tool to draw multiple ,
continuous lines onto paper
rather than a series of dots like a
traditional printer.
HARD DISK DRIVE
(also known as a hard drive, HD, or
HDD) stores files for the operating
system and software programs, as well
as user documents, such as
photographs, text files, videos, and
audio. The hard drive uses magnetic
storage to record and retrieve digital
information to and from one or more
fast-spinning disks.
FLOPPY DISK
Also know as a diskette, floppy, or FD,
the floppy disk uses magnetic storage
technology to store information.
Floppy disks were once a common
storage device for computers and
lasted from the mid-1970's through to
the start of the 21st century. The
earliest floppies were 8-inch (203 mm)
in size, but these were replaced by 5
1⁄4-inch (13 3 mm) disk drives, and
finally a 3 1⁄2 inch (90 mm) version.
COMPACT DISC
known for short as a CD, is a form
of optical storage, a technology
which employs lasers and lights
to read and write data. Initially
com pact discs were used purely
for music, but in the late 1980’s
they began to be also used for
computer data storage.
DVD (digital versatile disc) and Blu-ray disc (BD)
are formats of digital optical disc data
storage which have superseded compact
discs, mainly because of their much
greater storage capacity. A Blu-ray disc, for
example, can store 25 GB (gigabytes) of
data on a single-layer disc and 50 GB on a
dual-layer disc. In comparison, a standard
CD is the same physical size, but only
holds 700 MB (megabytes) of digital data
USB FLASH DRIVE
Also known as a thumb drive, pen drive,
flash-drive, memory stick, jump drive, and
USB stick, the USB flash drive is a flash
memory data storage device that
incorporates an integrated USB interface.
Flash memory is generally more efficient
and reliable than optical media, being
smaller, faster, and possessing much
greater storage capacity, as well as being
more durable due to a lack of moving
parts. otj
SECURE DIGITAL CARD (SD Card)

A common type of memory card, SD cards


are used in multiple electronic devices,
including digital cameras and mobile
phones. Although there are different sizes,
classes, and capacities available, they all
use a rectangular design with one side
"chipped off" to prevent the card from
being inserted into the camera or other
device the wrong way.
SOLID STATE DRIVE (SSDs)
A solid state drive uses flash memory to
store data and is sometimes used in
devices such as netbooks, laptop, and
desktop computers instead of a traditional
hard disk drive. The advantages of an SSD
over a HDD include a faster read/write
speed, noiseless operation, greater
reliability, and lower power consumption.
The biggest downside is cost, with an SSD
offering lower capacity than an
equivalently priced HDD.
