What`s in a computer?
At
the heart of the computer is the motherboard. It is the largest circuit board
in a computer and all the other smaller circuit boards
are
connected to it. On the motherboard, there is a microchip called the Central
Processing Unit, or CPU, which is basically the brain and command centre of
the computer. The CPU interprets software programs and sends commands to all
the other parts of the computer.
The BIOS( basic Input-Output System) is special software usually stored on
the motherboard. It wakes up the computer when you switch it on,checks that
everything is working an reminds it of what it needs to do.
The motherboard also contains several cards, each of which has a different
purpose. For example, the video card generates the graphics that you see on
your screen, whereas the sound card controls the audio of the computer.
The computer has two main types of memory,ROM and RAM. ROM holds information
that is permanently «burnt» into the computer and you cannot change it.RAM,
on the other hand,is like a short-term memory that you can access and change,
but once you turn off the computer it forgets everything.
The inside parts of the computer communicate with the keyboard, the screen,
the mouse other devices such as modems through ports
