Data - raw facts
Information - meaningful data
(useful output)

Number Systems:
Decimal Numbers - Base 10 Notation
Binary Numbers - Base 2 Notation

Bits and Bytes:
•Bit = binary digit - Smallest unit of data
•Byte = 8 bits
![Page 6: Processing Data](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052622/5593c33c1a28ab9a4a8b475a/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Computers represent data with electrical switches.
= 1
= 0
On-off circuits are simpleand are not prone to errors.
0 1 0 0 1 0 0 0
One byte is made up of 8 bits.(binary 01001000 = decimal 72)
(ASCII 01001000 = the letter “H”)

Computer parts communicate using binary numbers.
The greater the number of bits moved atone time, the faster the processing speed.

Text Codes:
EBCDIC “EB-si-dic” - (Extended Binary Coded Decimal Interchange Code)
ASCII “As-key” - (American Standard Code for Information Interchange)
Unicode - (Unicode Worldwide Character Standard)

CPU (Central Processing Unit) - the brain of the computer
Two parts:
• CU (Control Unit)
• ALU (Arithmetic/Logic Unit)
![Page 10: Processing Data](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052622/5593c33c1a28ab9a4a8b475a/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Control Unit - Controls the flow of data into and from the Central Processing Unit.
![Page 11: Processing Data](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052622/5593c33c1a28ab9a4a8b475a/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Arithmetic/Logic Unit - Performs Arithmetic functions and Logical operations.
![Page 12: Processing Data](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052622/5593c33c1a28ab9a4a8b475a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The CU and ALUare in the CPU.
![Page 13: Processing Data](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052622/5593c33c1a28ab9a4a8b475a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Types of Memory:
ROM - Read Only Memory(contains the basic input output
system or BIOS)
RAM - Random Access Memory(user programs and data go here)
![Page 14: Processing Data](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052622/5593c33c1a28ab9a4a8b475a/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
The ROM is nonvolatile because it will notlose its contents when powered down.
RAM plugs into sockets on the motherboard.
![Page 15: Processing Data](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052622/5593c33c1a28ab9a4a8b475a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Adding RAM often increases system performance.
![Page 16: Processing Data](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052622/5593c33c1a28ab9a4a8b475a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
The CPU can read RAM much faster than it can the hard disk.

CPU Manufacturers:
•Intel•Motorola•AMD•Cyrix

CPU Models:
• 8086 1978
• 8088 1979
• 80286 1982
• 80386 1985
• 80486 1989
• Pentium 1993
• Penium Pro 1995
• Pentium II 1997
![Page 19: Processing Data](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052622/5593c33c1a28ab9a4a8b475a/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
The Pentium II has 7.5 million
transistors, more than double
the number included on the
original Pentium chip. It
can operate from 233 MHz to
400 MHz and beyond.
About MHz: the fasterthe clock, the faster the
processing speed.(1 MHz = 1 million clock
cycles per second)
