Block Diagram of a Computer

A block diagram of a computer typically illustrates the major components and their interconnections. Here's a simplified block diagram of a computer: Central Processing Unit (CPU) Controls and executes instructions. Arithmetic and logic operations. Memory RAM (Random Access Memory) for temporary data storage. ROM (Read-Only Memory) for permanent data storage. Input Devices Keyboard, mouse, touchpad, etc. Convert input into machine-readable data. Output Devices Monitor, printer, speakers, etc. Display or provide output to the user.

Storage Hard Drive (HDD) or Solid State Drive (SSD) for permanent data storage. Motherboard Main circuit board connecting all components. Houses CPU, memory, and facilitates data transfer. Power Supply Provides electrical power to all components. Peripheral Devices Additional devices like printers, scanners, external drives, etc. Bus System Data highways connecting various components for communication. Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) Handles graphics-related operations and rendering.

Network Interface Card (NIC) Allows communication with other computers over a network. System Software Operating System (OS) for managing hardware and software. Application Software Programs and applications used for specific tasks (e.g., word processing, web browsing). This is a high-level and simplified block diagram, and real-world computer systems can have more complex and detailed architectures based on the specific purpose and configuration of the computer.
