Processing Device - CPU


Senin, 03 Agustus 2020 14.18

Once information is sent to a computer by one of the input


devices, it is processed. The CPU is the brain of the computer. It
processes the information.

CPU is basically divided into three parts:


1. ALU stands for Arithmetic Logic Unit. All mathematical and
logical calculations are done by it.
2. CU stands for Control Unit. It controls the flow of
information in the system. It work like a traffic policeman
who controls the traffic on the road.
3. MU stands for Memory Unit. It holds the processed or
unprocessed data. When you offer tea to a guest, it is served
in a cup. The cup is a kind of a container for the tea that was
offered to the guest. Similarly, memory is a container to hold
the data of a computer.
