Resumen del Recurso
Unit 1.1 Systems Architecture
Computer Components
CPU
Main component within a computer
Location of the fetch-decode-execute cycle
MAR
Memory Address Register
Contains the address of the instruction next to be or previously executed
MDR
Memory Data Register
Also known as the MBR (Memory Buffer Register)
Contains the data to be stored in the computer's storage
CIR
Current Instruction Register
Part of the CPU
Holds the instruction currently being executed
ALU
Arithmetic Logic Unit
A combinational, digital, electronic circuit
Performs arithmetic operations on integer binary numbers
CU
Control Unit
Directs the operation of the processor
Part of the CPU
PC
Program Counter
Register in the CPU
As instructions are fetched, its count increases respectivelly
Contains the address of the instruction currently being executed
Accumulator
In the CPU
Stores intermediate arithmetic and logic results
RAM + ROM
See Unit 1.2 Mind Map
Computational Speeds
Computer speeds are measured in hertz (Hz)
1 GHz can perform 1 billion instructions per second
Computer speeds can be affected by Cores
A dual-core processor may be able to perform up to twice the amount of instructions per second
Cache
Smallest but fastest form of memory
Can speed up a computer
Contains frequently used instructions (due to close proximity to CPU)
Secondary Storage
An external device containing extra storage space for a computer
Includes Memory Sticks, CD/DVDs, External Hard Drives and SD Cards
Embedded Systems
Made up of hardware and software
Built into another device
They do not rely upon an OS
Used to provide specific, pre-defined functions
