PERFORM MENSURATION

AND CALCULATION
LEARNING OUTCOMES:
At the end of this Lesson, you are expected
to do the following:

LO 1. select components to be measured; and


LO 2. carry out mensuration and calculation.
Bit - a fundamental unit of information having just two
possible values, as either of the
binary digits 0 or 1.
Byte - a unit of digital information in computing and
telecommunications that most commonly consists of eight bits.
Booting – starting (a computer) by loading an operating
system from a disk.
Electronic storage - a device for recording (storing) information
(data).
Laser - a device that emits light (electromagnetic radiation) through a
process of optical amplification based on the stimulated emission of
photons
Operating system - a set of programs that manage computer hardware
MEMORY
MEMORY

-any form of electronic storage


-is used most often to identify fast,
temporary forms of storage.
READ-ONLY MEMORY (ROM)
 chips are located in the motherboard.
 ROM chips contain instructions that can be directly accessed by
the CPU. Basic instructions for booting the computer and loading
the operating system are stored in ROM.
 ROM chips retain their contents even when the computer is
powered down.
 The contents cannot be erased or
changed by normal means.
RANDOM ACCESS MEMORY (RAM) IS
the temporary storage for data and programs that are being
accessed by the CPU.
RAM is volatile memory, which means that the contents are
erased when the computer is powered off.
 The more RAM in a computer, the more capacity the
computer has to hold and process large programs and files,
as well as enhance system performance.
