How computers work?
Across
- 2. The SI unit of frequency, equal to one cycle per second.
- 5. The method or process of computation with figures
- 9. The number of pulses per second generated by an oscillator that sets the tempo for the processor.
- 10. million cycles per second.
- 11. a collection of items of the same type stored in a hidden or inaccessible place.
- 12. a system in which information can be expressed by combinations of the digits 0 and 1.
- 14. signal that represents a sequence of discrete values.
Down
- 1. Is a unit of measurement for alternating current or electromagnetic wave frequency.
- 3. Contains computer memory that can only be read not written in
- 4. random access memory,device that allows information to be stored and retrieved in a computer.
- 6. the part of a computer that performs logical and arithmetical operations on the data as specified in the instructions
- 7. semiconductor wafer on which thousands or millions of tiny resistors, capacitors, and transistors are fabricated.
- 8. battery powered semiconductor chip that stores information.
- 9. Is a component of a computer's central processing unit that directs operation of the processor.
- 13. Continuous signal
