 INTRODUCTION TO TYPES OF COMPUTER: Computer are available in different shapes, size and weights,
 They perform different sort of jobs
 All the computers are designed by the qualified architectures
as per requirement of users

Computers have many types

But Basic three types are as under:-
1. Analogue computer
2. Digital computer
3. Hybrid computer


Analogue computer:-

It uses the analogue signals

Contineous varing voltage

In contrast, digital computers work on numerical values called digits

Analog computers have been built using mechanical, hydraulic, optical
and electric principles

Used to measure values and other required operations like
temperature & volume

Had elecrtical provlems and limitaions

Use of Analog computers is almost obsolete now

 Digital Computer: Stores data in terms of digits (numbers)
 Data is represented by 1 and 0 (0=OFF, 1=ON)
 High speed and aren’t affected by atmosphere
 In digital computers, even letters, words and whole texts are
represented digitally
 Usually in the binary number system
 circuits perform directly methamatical operations addition,
substraction, division, and multiplication
 A digital computer can store the results of its calculations for
later use

 Hybrid computer: Has both qualities i.e analogue and digital
 contains convertes which converts analogue signals to digital and vise
versa
 Digital component normally serves as the controller
 Analogue component normally serves as a solver
 Accepts analog signals, converts them to digital
 So also known as analog-digital computer
 Hybrid computers measures discrete values (digital)
 Changes continuously in magnitude (analog)

Classes Of Computer: Introduction: Classification of computers can be determined only by computer’s
Size & Power
 Computers are classified in six models given below
1. Desktop pc
2.
Workstation pc
3.
Notebook pc
4.
Tablet pc
5.
Hand Held pc
6.
Smart Phones

 Desktop pc: Two designs Horizontal (desktop) and Vertical (tower)
 Used for communication, produce music, graphics, video etc
 Desktop computers are usually less expensive than laptops
 Most desktops offer more power, storage and versatility
 Mostlay suitable for office and home usage
 Desktop computers have generally limited editions comparing to Tower
 Can be connected to local and wide area network for internet access
 wide range of high performance desktop pcs’ are now available

 Work station pc: More powerful than desktop pc
 Large high resolution monitors and accelerated graphics
 More powerful processor, additional memory
 Ehanced capabilities for performing a special group of task
 Specially used for 3D Graphics or game development
 Most sound editors use workstation computers for sound editing
 Like personal computers, most workstations are single-user computers
 workstations are typically linked together to form a local area network

 Notebook pc: Size can be 8.5 to 11 inches are called Laptops
 They need batteries for power
 Laptops are portable computers that integrate the display, keyboard, a
pointing device or trackball
 Processor, memory and hard drive all in a battery-operated
 Slightly larger than an average hardcover book
 It is designed for mobility, miniaturized technology
 Made for low power consumption
 But significantly more expensive than desktop systems

 Tablet pc: Tablet PC or slate-shaped mobile computer
 Equipped with a touch screen type of notebook
 Same functions as notebook pc but have pen
 Special-purpose pen called Stylus
 The handwriting is digitized and can be converted to standard text
 The tablet PC relies on digital ink (technology that digitally represents
handwriting in its natural form)
 Create an electromagnetic field below LCD that can capture the
movement of the pen
 Its effect is like writing on paper with liquid ink

 Hand Held pc: Computing devices, small enough to held in hand
 Called personal digital assistant(PDA)
 Applications are taking notes, displaying telephone numbers
 It can be connected to large phones
 Most PDA come with touch screen
 Access the internet through wireless connection
 Offer features like, cameras, music players, global positioning system

 Smart phones pc: Simply a phone with advanced features like e-mail, Internet and e-book
 Reader capabilities and built-in keyboard
 It is a miniature computer that has phone capability
 Smart cell phone is a mobile phone
 Advanced capabilities, often with PC-like functionality and can work PCMobile handset conversion
 Have a lot of verity in it
 Used frequently all over the globe
