Classification of Computer

This document summarizes different types of computers: 1) It describes analog computers, digital computers, and hybrid computers. Analog computers use continuous signals to represent data while digital computers use discrete numbers. 2) It then discusses types of digital computers including micro computers, mini computers, mainframe computers, super computers, desktops, workstations, notebooks, tablet PCs, handheld computers, and smartphones. Micro computers are the smallest while mainframes and super computers are the largest and most powerful. 3) For each type of computer, it provides a brief definition and examples of common applications.

Analog computer
Analog computer measures and answer the
questions by the method of “HOW MUCH”. The
input data is not a number infect a physical
quantity like tem, pressure, speed, velocity.
 Signals are continuous of (0 to 10 V)
 Accuracy 1% Approximately
 High speed
 Output is continuous
 Time is wasted in transmission time
Analog computer
Digital Computers
Digital computer counts and answer the questions
by the method of “HOW Many”. The input data is
represented by a number. These are used for the
logical and arithmetic operations.
 Signals are two level of (0 V or 5 V)
 Accuracy unlimited
 low speed sequential as well as parallel processing
 Output is continuous but obtain when
computation is completed.
Micro Computer
Micro computer are the smallest computer
system. There size range from calculator
to desktop size. Its CPU is microprocessor.
It also known as Grand child Computer.
 Application : - personal computer, Multi
user system, offices.
Mini Computer
These are also small general purpose
system. They are generally more powerful
and most useful as compared to micro
computer. Mini computer are also known
as mid range computer or Child computer.
 Application :- Departmental systems,
Network Servers, work group system.
Mini computer
Main Frame Computer
Mainframe computers are those computers
that offer faster processing and grater
storage area. The word “main frame”
comes from the metal frames. It is also
known as Father computer.
 Application – Host computer, Central data
base server.
Super Computer
 Super computer are those computer which are
designed for scientific job like whether
forecasting and artificial intelligence etc. They
are fastest and expensive. A super computer
contains a number of CPU which operate in
parallel to make it faster. It also known as grand
father computer.

 Application – whether forecasting, weapons


research and development.
