Page 3: Input and output devices

An input device captures data and sends it to a computer system.

Input devices convert physical movement, such as key pressing, or environmental data, such as temperature, sound or light into electrical signals.

Input DevicesInput Devices

There are two types of input device: manual andautomatic.

Page 4: Input and output devices

Output DevicesOutput Devices An output device is used to display or use information that comes out of a computer

system.

Output devices convert electrical signals from a computer system into…

Sound (speakers or headphones) Images & Text (screen or printer) Movement (actuator, electric motor)

KeyboardKeyboard

Keyboard

The most common input device

You press keys to input data into the computer

The most common type of keyboard is the QWERTY keyboard typewriter keys

•Cursor movement keys

•Numeric keys

•Function keys

•Del, insert, esc etc

People are familiar with keyboards, so they don’t need to be trained

Skilled typists can work very quickly

A lot of different keyboards are available, e.g. ergonomic

They are very reliable and cheap

Incorrect use or over-use can cause RSI

Many people cannot type and look at the screen at the same time, so typing can be time consuming

Uses Advantages DisadvantagesDevice

Key Board continued

• The American Standard Code for Information Interchange (ASCII, pronunciation: ASS-kee is a character-encoding scheme originally based on the English alphabet.

• Extended Binary Coded Decimal Interchange Code (EBCDIC) is an 8-bit character encoding used mainly on IBM mainframe and IBM midrange computer operating systems.

• HEX code

Page 7: Input and output devices

Light pen

•It is pointing device used to select a displayed menu option on the CRT•It is photo sensitive pen like device, photocell- sensing element detects the light coming from the screen and corresponding signals are send to the processer.

Page 8: Input and output devices

Mouse • Device that controls the movement of the

cursor or pointer on a display screen.• Invented by Dauglas Engal Bart in 1963 and

pioneered by Xerox in the 1970• Point -and - click programs

Page 9: Input and output devices

Three basic type of mouse

• Mechanical – has a rubber or metal ball on its underside that can roll in all directions

• Opt mechanical- same as mechanical, but uses optical sensors to direct motion of the ball

• Optical – uses laser to detect the mouse movement

They responds more quickly and precisely than mechanically and opt mechanical mouse.

Page 10: Input and output devices

Joy stick• It is pointing device• It is just like lever that moves in all directions

and controls the movement of a pointer or some other display symbol.

• Computer games • CAD and CAM systems

Page 11: Input and output devices

Trackballs • Pointing devise • Mouse lying on its back • To move the pointer, rotate the ball with

thumb, finger or with palm of handPopular for portable computer

Page 12: Input and output devices

Scanners• Scanning device translates images of text,

drawings, photo in to digital form.• important type of scanners are

• Optical scanners • Magnetic – ink character reader

Page 13: Input and output devices

Optical Character Reader (OCR)• Detects alpha numeric character printed or type written

on paper • The text which is scanned is illuminated by a low

frequency source.• The light absorbed from dark areas and reflected from

the lighted areas, provide binary data corresponding to dark and lighted areas.

Page 14: Input and output devices

Optical Mark Reader (OMR)• Special mark such as squires or bubbles are

prepared on examination answer sheets with pencil or ink

• OMR detects these mark and sends corresponding signals to the processor.

• If mark is present the amount of reflected light is reduced.

• Analysis of objective type questions

Page 15: Input and output devices

Optical Barcode Readers

• Read UPC (universal product code ) bars and send electrical pulses to be processed by the computer.

• bars detected as 10 digits • First 5 digits identify the manufacturer or supplier • Second 5 digits identify the products • The code also contains check digit to that the

information is correct.

Page 16: Input and output devices

Magnetic ink character readers (MICR)• Widely used in banks to process large number of

cheques. • Special ink contains iron oxide is used to write

characters • When cheque is entered into MICR it passes

through a magnetic field • The read head reads the character with magnetic

ink

Page 17: Input and output devices

CCD Camera • To provide vision to computers sensors like

video camera, opticron cameras • (Charged Coupled Device) • Provide signals proportional to the intensity of

light falling on the object• CCD image sensors are widely used in

professional, medical, and scientific applications where high-quality image data is required.

Page 18: Input and output devices

Sensors

• Sensor collects specific kind of data directly from environments and transmit to computer.

• Used for detecting kind of things such as speed, movement, weight, pressure, temperature, humidity, wind, fog, gas, smoke, light shape, images etc..

Colour monitors

• Colouur monitors can display 16 to 1 million different colours.

• RGB monitors – red, green and blue• Full page monitors – 16 or more • VGA -14• Portrait or landscape• Viewable area

Page 24: Input and output devices

• Pixel, or pel, (picture element) is a physical point in a raster image, or the smallest addressable element in a display device; so it is the smallest controllable element of a picture represented on the screen.

• Each pixel is a sample of an original image; more samples typically provide more accurate representations of the original

• 1 cm37.795276 pixel• 1 pixel0.02645833 cm

Page 25: Input and output devices

• VGA - Video Graphics Array - display hardware first introduced with the IBM PS/2 line of computers in 1987

• SVGA - Super Video Graphics Array or Ultra Video Graphics Array,

• XGA -extended graphics array, 640 by 480 or 1024 by 768pixels

• DPI is not really used to describe the resolution number of dots per inch in a digital print and the printing resolution of a hard copy print dot gain

Page 26: Input and output devices

• Refresh rate how many times per seconds the screen refreshed to avoid flickering, (72 Hz)

• Band width :- The range of signal frequencies the monitor can handle.

• Dot Pitch:-the amount of space between each pixel, the smaller the dot pitch, the sharper the image

Page 27: Input and output devices

Video display unit

• Also called as monitors or CRT • VDT (video display terminal )• Images are represented on the screen by

individual dots or pixels • A stream of bits defining the image is sent

from the computer to the CRT gun • Where bits converted to electrons

Page 28: Input and output devices

• 1. Three Electron guns (for red,

green, and blue phosphor dots)2. Electron beams3. Focusing coils4. Deflection coils5. Anode connection6. Mask for separating beams for red, green, and blue part of displayed image7. Phosphor layer with red, green, and blue zones8. Close-up of the phosphor-coated inner side of the screen

Page 29: Input and output devices

Flat Panel Displays • They are much thinner, less in weight and

consumes less power.• LCD- Liquid crystal display • LED- light emitting diode Display conventional (using discrete LEDs) and

surface-mounted device (SMD) panels , red, green, and blue diodes mounted in a single package

• Electroluminescent Displays (ELDs) are a type of Flat panel display created by sandwiching a layer of electroluminescent material such as GaAs between two layers of conductors `

Page 30: Input and output devices

Plasma Display Panel (PDP) • is a type of flat panel display common to large TV

displays 30 inches (76 cm) or larger. • They are called "plasma" displays because the

technology utilizes small cells containing electrically charged ionized gases, or what are in essence chambers more commonly known as fluorescent lamps.

• Advantages• Picture quality – Capable of producing deeper blacks allowing for superior

contrast ratio– Wider viewing angles than those of LCD; images do not

suffer from degradation at high angles like LCDs

Page 31: Input and output devices

Clarity of Picture on Screen 1. Resolution :- sharpness and clarity of image

640by 480 pixel screen is capable of displaying 640 distinct dots on each of 480 lines or 300,000 pixels

2. Dot pitchAmount of space between pixels, closer the dots

crisper the image.3. Refresh rate number of times per second the pixel are

recharged so that their glow remains bright.

1. Monochrome versus colour screens • Monochrome displays only two colour• Colour 16 and 16.7 million colours depending

on their type.2. Text versus Graphics (character mapped

bitmapped display) character mapped display only text – letters

numbers and special characters.Bitmapped consisting of rows and columns of

dots of a graphic image in computer memory (eg: monochrome 1 bit is sufficient)

Page 33: Input and output devices

Video display adaptors • VGA – video graphic adapter • SVGA - super video graphic adapter • XGA – extended graphic adapter (640x480 or

1024x768)DPI dots per inch simply by the number of rows

and coloumns

Page 34: Input and output devices

Paper output devices

• Printers, plotters and MFD printed text or images on paper

• Printers may be portable or desktop• Impact-daisywheel and dot matrix • non impact- laser, inkjet, thermal • Plotters :-pen , electrostatic and thermal• MFD: combines printing, scanning, copying

and faxing

Page 35: Input and output devices

Printers

• Printers used with computer may be classified on the basis of how the printed

1. Character printers:- Print one character at a time

2. Line printers:- print one line of the text at a time

3. Page printers: print one page of the text one time.

Page 36: Input and output devices

• Impact printers: electro- mechanical that causes hammers and pins to strike against a ribbon and paper to print the text.

• Non impact: thermal, chemical, electrostatic, laser beam or inkjet technology.

• Character printer: print one characters at a time. The printing speed lies in between 60-600 characters per second

Page 37: Input and output devices

• Dot Matrix impact type character printerit is a type of computer printing which uses a print head that runs back and forth, or in an up and down motion, on the page and prints by impact, striking an ink-soaked cloth ribbon against the paper, much like the print mechanism on a typewriter.

Page 38: Input and output devices

1. Faster than letter quality printer 2. Printing speed is in b/w 8-600cps3. Slower the speed better the quality 4. Most of the dot matrix printers are

bidirectional5. It can print any type of fonts, bold , italics etc

Page 39: Input and output devices

• Daisywheel printer (letter quality impact character printer)

It uses interchangeable pre-formed type elements, each with typically 96 glyphs

Its speed is 20-75cpsCostlier than dot matrix printerFont is fixed typeIt cannot print graphics

Page 40: Input and output devices

Daisy wheel Daisy flower

Page 41: Input and output devices

Non impact type printers• Thermal printing (or direct thermal printing)

is a digital printing process which produces a printed image by selectively heating coated thermochromic paper, or thermal paper as it is commonly known, when the paper passes over the thermal print head.

Page 42: Input and output devices

• The coating turns black in the areas where it is heated, producing an image. Two-color direct thermal printers can print both black and an additional color (often red) by applying heat at two different temperatures.

• Printed head consists of 5x7 or 7x9 matrix of tiny heating elements.

• It gives highest quality printing

Page 43: Input and output devices
Page 44: Input and output devices

• Inkjet character printer

• A high-pressure pump directs liquid ink from a reservoir through a gun body and a microscopic nozzle, creating a continuous stream of ink droplets via the Plateau-Rayleigh instability.

• The charged droplets pass through an electrostatic field and are directed (deflected) by electrostatic deflection plates to print on the receptor material (substrate), or allowed to continue on un deflected to a collection gutter for re-use.

Page 45: Input and output devices

• The more highly charged droplets are deflected to a greater degree. Only a small fraction of the droplets is used to print, the majority being recycled.

• Speed of inkjet printer lies in the range of 40-300cps

• Average lifespan of an print head is about 10 billion characters.

Page 46: Input and output devices
Page 47: Input and output devices

Line printers• Prints one line if the text at one time• Printing speed lies in the range of 300- 3000

lines per minute.• Used for large volume jobs1. Drum printer2. Chain printer3. Band printer4. Bar printer5. Comb printer 6. Wheel printer

Page 48: Input and output devices

Drum printer

• In a typical drum printer design, a fixed font character set is engraved onto the periphery of a number of print wheels, the number matching the number of columns (letters in a line) the printer could print.

• The wheels, joined to form a large drum (cylinder), spin at high speed and paper and an inked ribbon is stepped (moved) past the print position.

Page 49: Input and output devices

• As the desired character for each column

passes the print position, a hammer strikes the paper from the rear and presses the paper against the ribbon and the drum, causing the desired character to be recorded on the continuous paper

Page 50: Input and output devices
Page 51: Input and output devices

Chain printerChain printer uses a rapidly rotating chain,

which is called print chain.magnetically driven hammers are located in

each print position.The noise level of the printer is high

Page 52: Input and output devices

Band printers• Are a variation of chain printers, where a thin

steel band is used instead of a chain, with the characters embossed on the band.

• Again, a selection of different bands were generally available with a different mix of characters so a character set best matched to the characters commonly printed could be chosen

Page 53: Input and output devices

• Bar printerswere similar to chain printers but were

slower and less expensive. Rather than a chain moving continuously in one direction, the characters were on fingers mounted on a bar that moved left-to-right and then right-to-left in front of the paper.

Page 54: Input and output devices

• Wheel printers• Each of the 120 print positions had its own type

wheel which rotated under electromechanical control.

• Once all were in position, print hammers struck the wheels against a ribbon and the paper.

Page 55: Input and output devices

Laser Printer

• The laser printer was invented at Xerox in 1969 by researcher Gary Starkweather, who had an improved printer working by 1971 and incorporated into a fully functional networked printer system by about a year later.

Page 56: Input and output devices

Working• A laser beam projects an image of the page to be

printed onto an electrically charged rotating drum coated with selenium or, more common in modern printers, organic photoconductors.

• Photoconductivity allows charge to leak away from the areas exposed to light.

• Powdered ink (toner) particles are then electrostatically picked up by the drum's charged areas, which have not been exposed to light.

• The drum then prints the image onto paper by direct contact and heat, which fuses the ink to the paper.

Plotters

• The plotter is an output device where a computer printer for printing vector graphics.

• In the past, plotters were used in applications such as computer-aided design, though they have generally been replaced with wide-format conventional printers

Page 61: Input and output devices
Page 62: Input and output devices

Cutting plotters• Use knives to cut into a piece of material (such as

paper, mylar or vinyl) that is lying on the flat surface area of the plotter.

• It is achieved because the cutting plotter is connected to a computer, which is equipped with specialized cutting design or drawing computer software programs.

• Those computer software programs are responsible for sending the necessary cutting dimensions or designs in order to command the cutting knife to produce the correct project cutting needs
