INTRODUCTION OF MICROPROCESSOR
TEACHING OBJECTIVE
EXPLAIN BASIC COMPONENTS OF A COMPUTER SYSTEM USING BLOCK DIAGRAMS:
a) b) c) d) e) CPU MAIN MEMORY SECONDARY MEMORY INPUT UNIT OUTPUT UNIT
MICROCOMPUTER SYSTEM
In a microcomputer the CPU is usually implemented on a single chip, which is the microprocessor. Some system may need several additional chips to be connected to a microprocessor chip to make the CPU. It is common to refer to the microprocessor as the MPU (microprocessor unit), since it is the CPU of the microcomputer. The basic interconnection of these units is shown in Figure 1.2. It is noted that the microcomputer preserves the characteristic of a basic computer system, but with smaller capabilities.
A simple comparison, mainframe is a computer system, where as personal computer is a microcomputer. However, the advancement in microprocessor technology has increased the capabilities of microcomputer

The main elements of the internal contructions and function are similar. However, the following outlines some important features in mode specific manner of a microcomputer system as a comparison to the basic computer system. CENTRAL PROCESSING UNIT (CPU) A silicon chip that works as heart of the computer. Receive instructions from memory to implement a task. MEMORY UNIT Store data and programs. Divided into two (2) main categories: a) PRIMARY MEMORY RAM (Random Access Memory) Data can be read and stored. However the stored data will disappear when the power supply is disconnected. ROM (Read Only Memory) Data can only be read but cannot be written into it. The stored data will not disappear when the power supply is disconnected.

b) SECONDARY MEMORY
RAM can only keep data in temporary basis. We need a permanent storage, which is also called secondary storage. Example of secondary storage are floppy disc and hard disk. Another type is CDROM (Compact-disc ROM), which can store up to 600 million characters and it is suitable for storing huge size of information.
