INTERNAL HARDWARE
COMPONENTS
 There are various internal hardware
components in a computer .
 The Components which are not
visible to the user as usually
INTERNAL
compared to the external hardware
HARDWARE
components are known as internal
COMPONENTS
hardware components.
- FACTS
 The internal hardware components
of a computer are very much
tightly packed inside cases of the
computer.
PROCESSOR
S
A processor, or
"microprocessor," is a small chip
that resides in computers and
other electronic devices. Its
PROCESSOR basic job is to receive input and
S provide the appropriate
output. ... Modern CPUs often
include multiple processing
cores, which work together to
process instructions faster.

TYPES OF COMPONENTS IN A CPU

Arithmetic Logic Unit(ALU): This unit is responsible for executing all


arithmetic Logic and Logical operations.

Control Unit(CU): The entire processing of the CPU is dictated and


controlled by the CU. The CU extracts instructions from the memory,
decodes and executes them, and stores the results in memory.

Registers: These are temporary storage areas within the processor that
store the data to be processed along with the instructions after they are
brought into the processor from the computer memory.
RAM (Random Access
Memory)
 RAM also known as Random Access
Memory. It stores the data or instructions
which is to be processed by the cpu.
 A computer can have plenty of memory
but the motherboard can only have 4
RAM(RANDOM sticks of RAM and here comes the
limitation.
ACCESS
 The more RAM a computer has, as faster
MEMORY)
it works – cause the limit of the data to
be stored increases hence, less load on
the processor.
 Usually there should be 4 to 8 Gigabytes
of RAM in a computer to function it faster.
ROM (Read only
memory)
ROM (READ ONLY MEMORY)
Read only memory or ROM
is a primary storage device
or the internal memory of
the computer . It contains
instructions that are
essential for a computer to
operate. These instructions
are stored permanently and
cannot be changed . These
instructions can only be
read by the computer.
TYPES OF HARD DRIVES

SSD’s HDD’s
HARD DISK
Hard disk is a type of storage device which stores your data and a
computer also stores the operating system files and TEMP files.
Hard disks are of 2 types:-
SSD and HDD
SSD’s are the best types of storage devices cause they don’t have any
moving parts all data is stored in digital chips. But, they are
expensive.
Whereas, HDD’s are very slow cause they have a disk in between
which moves and stores the data with the help of a bar thus , making
the system slow.
INSIDE SSD’S AND HDD’S

Motherboard
MOTHERBOARD’S

Here comes the parent of all the components of a computer


which holds all components like graphic cards, Processors , etc.
A motherboard (also called mainboard, main circuit board, system
board, baseboard, planar board, logic board,[1] or mobo) is the
main printed circuit board (PCB) in general-purpose computers and other
expandable systems. It holds and allows communication between many
of the crucial electronic components of a system, such as the
central processing unit (CPU) and memory, and provides connectors for
other peripherals. Unlike a backplane, a motherboard usually contains
significant sub-systems, such as the central processor, the chipset's
input/output and memory controllers, interface connectors, and other
components integrated for general use.
SOUND
CARDS
 A sound card (also known as an audio card) is
an internal expansion card that provides
input and output of audio signals to and from a
computer under control of computer programs.
The term sound card is also applied to external
audio interfaces used for professional audio
SOUND applications.
CARDS  Sound functionality can also be integrated onto
the motherboard, using components similar to
those found on plug-in cards. The integrated
sound system is often still referred to as a sound
card. Sound processing hardware is also present
on modern video cards with HDMI to output
sound along with the video using that connector;
previously they used a S/PDIF connection to the
motherboard or sound card.
GRAPHIC
CARD OR
VIDEO CARD
VIDEO CARD
A video card (also called a graphics card, display
card, graphics adapter, or display adapter) is an
expansion card which generates a feed of output
images to a display device (such as a
computer monitor). Frequently, these are advertised
as discrete or dedicated graphics cards, emphasizing
the distinction between these and integrated graphics
. At the core of both is the graphics processing unit
(GPU), which is the main part that does the actual
computations, but should not be confused with the
video card as a whole, although "GPU" is often used
as a metonymic shorthand to refer to video cards.
BIOS
BIOS

In computing, BIOS (/ˈbaɪɒs, -oʊs/, BY-oss, -ohss; an acronym for Basic


Input/Output System and also known as the System BIOS, ROM
BIOS, BIOS ROM or PC BIOS) is firmware used to perform hardware
initialization during the booting process (power-on startup), and to provide
runtime services for operating systems and programs.[1] The BIOS firmware
comes pre-installed on a personal computer's system board, and it is the first
software to run when powered on. The name originates from the Basic
Input/Output System used in the CP/M operating system in 1975.[2][3] The BIOS
originally proprietary to the IBM PC has been reverse engineered by some
companies (such as Phoenix Technologies) looking to create compatible
systems.[4] The interface of that original system serves as a de facto standard.
Internal Modem
MODEM

A modulator-demodulator, or simply a modem, is a


hardware device that converts data from a digital format to
analogue format, intended for communication directly
between devices with specialized wiring, into one suitable
for a transmission medium such as telephone lines or radio.
