Input/OutputInput/Output
Input/output devices (I/O) are devices that supply data, or receive processed data from the computer system.
Input devices include: keyboards, mouse, sensors, switches, scanners, or any other information we may need to provide to the computer.
Output devices include: printers, monitors, displays, lights, motors, speakers. or anything else that the computer is controlling.

The MicroprocessorThe Microprocessor Microprocessors are available from
several manufacturers and range from 4-bit units for simple device operations to powerful 64- bit multicore microprocessors found in modern desktop computers.
Microprocessors are rated by their processing capabilities. Processing speeds vary significantly between different microprocessors. Rated by the number of instructions per second (ips) they can process but measurement of performance is becoming increasingly complex.

MemoryMemoryMemory is used to hold
instructions and data for the system to process.
There are two basic kinds of memory in computer systems: RAM and ROM

ROM

RAMRAMRandom Access Memory (RAM) holds data
or instructions on a temporary basis.
Binary 1’s and 0’s are held electrically as highs and lows. This type of memory is volatile, meaning that the contents will disappear when the system is turned off.
Sometimes referred to in digital electronics as “read/write memory”, it contains the information that needs to be accessed quickly or repeatedly.
25
![Page 26: DIGI252 Introduction to Microprocessors Last Mod: March 2015 Paul R. Godin prgodin @ gmail 1.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062408/56649e725503460f94b713ad/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
ROMROMRead Only Memory (ROM) holds
information on a permanent basis.
The contents of the ROM isn’t normally altered by the computer system, nor will it disappear when the system is shut down.
ROM contains basic operational code and primary instructions for that particular computer.
ROM is considered Non-Volatile.

ROM (other types)ROM (other types)Other types of ROM devices are considered semi-
permanent. These include flash ROM, EPROM's and EEPROM’s. These are permanent memory devices which, through special processes, can be erased and re-written.
These devices typically contain custom system
information such as user preferences or specific hardware configurations.
In some cases these devices are referred to as firmware devices, which describes software programs (instructions and data) written into the IC’s.

When selecting DRAM it is important to know the following:◦Capacity◦Module type◦Type of RAM (DDR, DDR2, DDR3)◦Speed (PC Number)
These factors are dependent on the motherboard and the processor.

to exchange information between logic devices.
In computers, addresses and data are moved between various devices and logic units in parallel.

BUSESBUSES
There are three main bus types on any computer system:◦Address bus: Carries source or
destination information.◦Data bus: Carries program instructions or
data.◦Control bus: Responsible for the overall
control and synchronization of the computer system.

transferring data between devices.

BusesBusesAddress and Data buses carry binary
values in parallel.
Bus widths refer to the number of parallel communication conductors that the bus contains.
For most systems, the data bus width is divisible by 4 or 8. Stated in bits.
Common bus widths for microcomputer systems today are 32 or 64 bits.

Input/OutputInput/Output Typically, the computer is selected based on the degree of
input or output information it must handle.
The I/O block is the interface between the computer’s internal circuitry and the external devices.
These I/O interfaces are responsible for holding the data until the device or computer is ready to retrieve the information. Therefore, many contain a register.
Some ports contain a more complex register called a UART (Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter). This device handles the interface, has error detection and can convert between serial and parallel communications.

ClockClockThe clock is the device that provides the
necessary edges and levels for all the device blocks in the computer to operate.
Part of the clock circuitry is generally located in the P, with an external connection for an oscillator crystal or other frequency generator. Today’s CPUs contain a clock multiplier to increase the frequency.
The P provides clocking to the rest of the devices in the computer.

The CPUThe CPU
The CPU is the main logic unit of the P. It: ◦Executes program instructions◦Manipulates data in internal registers and
caches◦Performs basic mathematical operations (add,
subtract, compliment)◦Puts addresses on the address bus◦Reads instructions from the data bus◦Coordinates the operation of all support IC’s
and devices◦Sets the timing for the entire system

The ALUThe ALU
The ALU (Arithmetic/Logic Unit) is the area of the CPU that performs all arithmetic and logic operations.
The ALU operations are determined by the signals from the Logic Control section.
The data for the ALU is held in the registers.

RegistersRegisters
Registers are very fast temporary storage locations for data.
Registers are responsible for holding and handling the data between the ALU, Memory & Input/Output devices.
The CPU contains many registers, each with is specific purpose.

RegistersRegistersThe arithmetic logic unit utilizes a register,
and registers are used keep track of important addresses, such as the location of the next instruction to be executed. The registers retain the location of an area of memory known as a stack.
Registers are typically given names such as A, B, C to identify them.
There will be more specific information on the registers later...

ControlControlThis area directs and controls the flow of
information between all the devices. The Control unit fetches data by
providing enable/disable signals, address locations and read commands.
It decodes and executes operations by providing the appropriate control and address signals to other devices.

InstructionsInstructionsMicroprocessors are digital devices that create
a specific set of outputs based on their inputs.
The input to these devices is in the form of:◦ a program, which consists of a set of
instructions to provide the operation desired, referred to as the OPTCODE, and the data that needs to be manipulated, referred to as the OPERAND.
Programs are, on the microprocessor level, a set of digital values.
