Architecture Of A Single Board
Computer
Defining The Components of a
Computer
• What Elements Are Required?
– Electronic Integrated Circuits which are configure
together to form the Hardware Architecture of
the computer
– Software called the Operating System programme
and makes the computer function and interact
with the outside world
• Electronic Integrated Circuits
– These electronic circuits (collection of transistors)
come in varying sizes, densities and functionally.
– Small Scale Integration (SSI), Medium Scale
Integration (MSI), Large Scale Integration (LSI) and
Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI)
– VLSI would tend to be the domain for the central
core processor called a Micro Processor and
typically use 250 million to 1.5 billion transistors.
The semiconductor is etched up to an resolution of
25nM ie. 0.000’000’025 of a meter
• Software
– Software is any code or programme that can run on
a Computer (Micro Processor) and result in a
function for that processor.
– e.g. An Operating System such as Windows 7, Unix,
Sun OS, MacOS 10 etc.
– Computer Games, MicroSoft Office, iTunes etc., etc.
Computer Applications
• Computer Applications where older
mechanical mechanisms have been replaced.
– Domestic Appliances: such as Microwaves,
Cookers, Fridges, TV’s,…the list goes on….
– Transport: Cars, Aeroplanes, Trains etc.
– Industry: Robots, Automated Production Lines,…
– Communications: Mobile Phones, Satellites,…
– Commercial: Cash registers, ATM, Type Writers…
In Fact every facet of modern life has been
influenced by the computer.
Types of Computers
• There are basically 2 types of computer
General Purpose Computer such as the standard
Desktop PC, Laptop, Mainframe Computer which
can run general purpose application software
which is loaded up and run when required by an
operator.
Micro Controller which runs dedicated software for
a specific purpose such as controlling the engine
of a car, the flight of an aeroplane, the cycle of a
washing machine, etc….
