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
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 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.
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.
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 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.
