3. Input Unit
An input unit of a computer system performs the
following functions:
1. It accepts (or reads) instructions and data from outside
world
It converts these instructions and data in computer acceptable
form
2.
3. It supplies the converted instructions and
computer system for further processing
data to the
4. Output Unit
An output unit of a computer system performs the
following functions:
1. It accepts the results produced by the computer, which
are in coded form and hence, cannot be easily understood
by us
It converts these coded results to human acceptable2.
(readable)
It supplies
form
the converted3. results to outside world
5. Storage Unit
The storage unit of a computer system holds (or stores)
the following :
1. Data and instructions required for processing (received
from input devices)
Intermediate results of processing2.
3. Final results of processing, before they are released to
an output device
6. Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU)
Arithmetic Logic Unit of a computer system is the place
duringwhere the actual executions of instructions takes place
processing operation
Functions of ALU :
An ALU performs basic arithmetic and logic
operations.
Examples of arithmetic operations are addition,
subtraction, multiplication, and division.
Examples of logic operations are comparisons of
values such as NOT, AND, and OR.
7. Control Unit (CU)
Control Unit of a computer system manages and coordinates
the operations of all other components of the computer
system
