What is I/O Device ?
Input Device
Sends data INTO a system
• Eg: Keyboard, Mouse, Scanner, Optical
Input Device, Digital Camera , Joystic,
Microphone, Pen, Touch Screen
Output Device
data OUT from a system to another medium
• Eg. Monitor, Printer, Projector, Sound
Card, Speaker, Video Card

Input Device - Keyboard
One of the main input devices used on a computer, a PC's keyboard looks very
similar to the keyboards of electric typewriters, with some additional keys.
Type of Keyboard
Standard / Enhanced Keyboard
Non-Standard or special use tye of keyboard
Standard Keyboard
• A standard computer keyboard has about 100-104 keys.
• Most keyboards use the QWERTY layout, named for the
first six keys in the top row of letters.
• Non-Standard Keyboard
• Special purpose keyboard are called non standard
keyboard
• A keyset or chorded keyboard
• Virtual Keyboard
• Touch screen keyboard
• Foldable keyboard
4
Input Device – Key Board (Count.)
5
Input Device - Mouse
What is Mouse?
The mouse is a pointing device. You use it to move a graphical pointer on the screen. The
mouse can be used to issue commands, draw, and perform other types of input tasks.
6
Input Device – Digital Camera
A type of camera that stores the pictures or video it takes in electronic format
instead of to film.
7
Input Device – Optical Input Device
8
Input Device – Touch Screen
9
Output Device - Monitor
Monitor
Also called a video display terminal (VDT) a monitor is a video display screen
and the hard shell that holds it
Categories of Monitors
Monitors are categorized by the way they display colors:
Monochrome – One color on a black background
Grayscale – Shades of gray on a white or off-white background
Color – From 16 to 16 million unique colors
10
Output Device – CRT Monitor
CRT Monitors
Passive matrix LCD uses a transistor for each row and column of
pixels.
Active matrix LCD uses a transistor for each pixel on the screen.
Comparing Monitor
When comparing monitors, we mainly compare on major 4 features,
1. Resolution & Viewing Quality
2. Refresh Rate
3. Dot Pitch
4. Size
12
Output Device – Monitor
Video Controllers
VRAM
Graphic intensive applications such
as games require plenty of VRAM.

Output Device – Sound System
15
Output Device – Printer
•Impact printers use a device to strike an inked ribbon, pressing ink from the
ribbon onto the paper.
•Non-impact printers use different methods to place ink (or another substance)
on the page.
Impact Printer
Non-Impact Printer
16
Output Device – Printer
Image quality – Measured in dots per inch (dpi). Most printers produce 300 – 600 dpi.
Speed – Measured in pages per minute (ppm) or characters per second (cps).
Initial cost – Consumer printers cost $250 or less, but professional printers can cost
thousands of dollars.
Cost of operation – This refers to the cost of supplies used by the printer.
Types of printers:
Dot Matrix
printer
Inkjet
printer
Laser printer
Thermal
printer
LED printer
17
Output Device – Dot Matrix Printer
•Dot matrix printers are a common type of impact printer. A dot matrix printer's print head contains
a cluster of pins. The printer can push the pins out to form patterns in rapid sequence. The pins press
an inked ribbon against the paper, creating an image.
Performance:
• Lower-resolution dot matrix printers use nine pins. Higher-resolution models
have 24 pins.
• Speed is measured in characters per second (cps). Some dot matrix printers
print 500 cps.
18
Output Device – Ink Jet Printer
19
Output Device – Laser Printer
Performance:
• Laser printers provide resolutions from 300 – 1200 dpi and higher.
• Black-and-white laser printers usually produce 4 – 16 ppm.
• Laser printers produce higher-quality print than ink jet printers, but are more
expensive.
20
Output Device – Thermal Printer
A thermal impact printer or electro thermal printer is a type of printer that uses
heated pins to "burn" images onto heat-sensitive paper. These types of printers are
commonly used in calculators and fax machines; and although they are inexpensive
and print relatively fast, they produce low resolution print jobs.
21
Output Device – Led Printer
LED printers were developed by Casio and are printers capable of printing
at the same or close to the same quality as most laser printers.
LED printers work much like laser printers but utilize a LED panel that
recreates the image on a negatively charged drum. The areas where the
light hits the drum become less charged, which attracts toner. The printer
then transfers the toner from the drum to the paper and applies intense
heat to fuse the toner to the paper

Storage Device
Type Of Memory

Device
24
Storage Device – Primary Storage
Device - RAM
• A Primary Storage Device also known as main Memory.
• Main memory keeps track of what is currently being processed. It's
volatile, meaning that turning the power off erases all of the data.
• For example, computer RAM is an example of a primary storage
device.
• Type of RAM
25
Storage Device – Secondary Storage
Device - ROM
• ROM – Read Only Memory
– Pronounced rahm, acronym for read-only memory, computer
memory on which data has been prerecorded.
• Benifit of Using ROM
– Once data has been written onto a ROM chip, it cannot be removed
and can only be read. Unlike main memory (RAM), ROM retains its
contents even when the computer is turned off. ROM is referred to
as being nonvolatile, whereas RAM is volatile.
• USES of ROM
– Most personal computers contain a small amount of ROM that stores critical
programs such as the program that boots the computer. In addition, ROMs are
used extensively in calculators and peripheral devices such as laser printers,
whose fonts are often stored in ROMs.
• Type of ROM
Programmable read-only memory (PROM),
Erasable programmable read-only memory (EPROM)
Electrically erasable programmable read-only memory(EEPROM)

Device
Secondary Storage Device – Auxiliary Storage Device
So, Auxiliary Storage is where you put last year's tax info,
addresses for old customers, programs you may or may not ever
use, data you entered yesterday - everything that is not being
used right now.
27
Storage Device – Secondary Storage
Device
•The two Secondary storage technologies are magnetic and optical.
28
Storage Device – Magnetic Device
Disk Sector:
A disk sector is a wedge-shape piece of the disk,
shown in yellow. Each sector is numbered.
Track Sector:
A track sector is the area of intersection of a track
and a sector, shown in yellow.
Cluster:
A cluster is a set of track sectors, ranging from 2
to 32 or more, depending on the formatting scheme in
use.
