Keperluan kerja kursus
1. Fail putih 2 inci - RM4.50 satu
2. Plastik folder 20 keping - Rm4.00 satu
3. Buku Nok A ICT terbitan guru ICT Trengganu -RM5.00
Nota CD 1,2,3,4,5,6 pelajar download dan save sahaja dalam thumdrive. Setiap kali kelas ICT baca pada komputer sahaja sebab nak fotostat mahal hampir Rm12.00 lebih.
Pelajar juga kena ada thumbdrive untuk menyimpan softcopy. Jika membuat kerja dalam komputer makmal, mesti buat backup dalam thumbdrive kerana fail dalam komputer tidak selamat. Mungkin terdelete atau komputer rosak.
Dalam thumbdrive pastikan hanya fail2 berkaitan subjek ICT sahaja yg ada di dalamnya.

Identify the input devices used for text, graphic,audio and video
· INPUT DEVICES
Any hardware component that allows users to enter
data and instruction into a computerTYPES OF INPUT | EXAMPLE OF INPUT DEVICES |
Text | Keyboard, barcode reader |
Graphics | Digital camera, scanner, graphic tablet |
Audio | Microphone, |
Video | Digital video camera, webcam, CCTV |
State the units of clock speed measurement
When people talk about a computer’s ‘speed’, they mean how fast it can process data. In other words, this means the speed the computer can turn data into information.
Every microprocessor contains a system clock. The system clock controls the speed of all the operations within a computer.
The speed of the clock in measured by how many cycles per second the clock makes.
MEGAHERTZ (MHz)
Mega is prefix that stands for million
Example à one computer that operates at 933 MHz has 933 million clock cycles in one second.
GIGAHERTZ (GHz)
Giga is prefix that stands for billion
1 GHz equal to one billion cycles of the system clock
For example, a microprocessor that runs at 200 GHz executes 200 billion cycles per second. This is what they a talking about if they say a computer is a 2.4 GHz machine. Its clock rate is 2.4 billion cycles per second.
In relation with megahertz, 1.0 GHz is equivalent to 1000 MHz
Hertz & Second
The clock speed unit is measured in hertz.
1 Hertz =
1 Megahertz (MHz) = 1,000,000 cycles / 1 second
1 GHz = 1,000,000,000 cycles / 1 second
1 GHz = 1 000 MHz
State the unit of data measurement
1 | Bit | Single Binary Digit (1 or 0) |
2 | Byte | 1 Byte = 8 bits |
3 | Kilobyte (KB) | 1 KB = 1024 bytes or 1 KB = 2 10 bytes |
4 | Megabyte | 1 MB = 1 048 576 bytes or 1 MB = 2 20 bytes 1 MB = 1024 KB |
5 | Gigabyte | 1 GB = 1 073 741 824 bytes or 1 GB = 2 30 bytes |
6 | Terabyte (TB) | 1 TB = 1 099 511 627 776 bytes or 1 TB = 2 40 bytes |
Additional notes: A petabyte (PB) is 1,024TB.
Explain the function of ASCII code
DEFINITION: American Standard Code for Information
Interchange & was proposed by ASA in 1963 & was finalized in 1968.
Function of ASCII
ASCII was established to achieve compatibility between various types of data processing equipment making it possible for the components to communicate with each other successfully.
ASCII enables manufacturers to produce component that are assured to operate correctly in a computer.
JUSTIFICATION
ASCII makes it possible for humans to interact with a computer. It also enables users to purchase components that are compatible with their computer configurations.
HOW ASCII WORKS IN A COMPUTER SYSTEM ?
Example
- Number 9 is typed using the keyboard
- Electronic signal in sent to CPU for the computer to process.
- Number 9 is converted to 00111001
- Computer finishes processing the byte.
- The software converts the byte back to the number 9
- Number 9 is displayed on the monitor screen
State the relationship of data representation : bit, byte and character
Data Representation
1. BIT
- A short binary digit is a smallest unit of data the computer can process.
- The binary system is a number system that has jus two unique digits, 0 dan 1 called bits.
- A bit is represent by number 1 and 0
- These number represent the binary system
-These correspond to the state of on and of, true and false,or yes and no.
2. BYTE
- Byte is a unit of information built from bit
-When 8 bits are grouped together as a unit, they from a byte
- Bits and Bytes are the basic for representing all meaningfull information and programs on computer
3. CHARACTER
- One byte is equals to 8 bit
- One byte represents a single character such as the number, the letter, or sysmbol
-For example, the capital F is represented by binary coding code 01000110 that can be understood by the computer system
-Computer does not understand letter or number or pictures or symbols.
-Computer uses a binary system to count as it recognizes two states that are 0 and 1
- Number 9 is represented by binary code 00111001
- Eight bits grouped together as a unit are called a byte
- A byte represents a single character in the computer.
===========================
Computer recognizes 2 discrete: ON and OFF that represented by 2 digits, 1 and 0
8 bits = 1 byte,
8 bits = 1 character
Draw the blog diagram of the information processing cycle
4 Basic operation called Machine Cycle
FETCHING : the process of obtaining a program instruction or data item from memory
DECODING : the process of translating a program instruction into signal that the
computer can execute
EXECUTING : the process of implementing the instructions in a program
STORING : the process of writing the result to the storage or memory
-----
Describe the information processing cycle which includes ipnut,process, output and storage
INFORMATION PROCESSING CYCLE DESCRIPTION
Information processing cycle of computer can be well described by the following points: (1) input, (2) processing, (3) output and (4) storage
- Input-entering data into the computer.
- Processing-performing operations on the data.
- Output-presenting the results.
User will input the data to be processed by the processor.
The storage holds databases, files & programs. The output devices present the processed data as useful information products for the user.
State the meaning of input, process,output and storage
1. INPUT - masukan
Any data and instructions entered into the memory of a computer. There are four types of input which are: text, graphics, audio and video.
Example of devices:
Keyboard, mouse, digital camera, joystick, trackball, touch screen, microphone, pointing stick, graphic tablet and scanner, barcode reader.
Sebarang data atau arahan yang dimasukkan ke dalam ingatan komputer. Ada 4 jenis data input iaitu teks, grafik/gambar,audio dan video
contoh peranti input seperti papan kekunci, tetikus,kamera digital, joystick, trackball,skrin sentuh, mikrofon,papan grafik,pengimbas dan pembaca bar kod.
CPU or Central Processing Unit/ Processor/ Microprocessor is an electronic component on a computer’s motherboard that interprets and carries out the basic instructions that operate the computer.
Example of devices:
Intel® Core™2 Duo Processor, AMD Athlon, G4, Mac
Unit Pemproses Pusat adalah komponen elektronik atas papan induk untuk menafsir dan melaksanakan arahan operasi komputer.
contoh :
Pengguna tekan papan kekunci no 5 . tekan darab. tekan 3. CPU akan proses untuk membuat pengiraan. Dapat jawapan, jawapan akan di paparkan pada skrin monitor.
3. OUTPUT - keluaran
The result of raw input data that has been processed by the Central Processing Unit (CPU) into meaningful information.
Example of devices:
hasil akhir daripada input data yang diproses oleh Unit Pemproses Pusat menjadi maklumat yang bermakna/berguna.
contoh peranti keluaran : monitor, pencetak
Tips:
data mentah : nombor 1,2,3 , 4 dan seterusnya
proses : 2 X 3 = 6
maklumat : gula RM2 sekilo. Beli 3 kilo. Jadi untuk harga 3 kilo gula, kena bayar RM6. Jika bayar RM10, kena pulangkan baki RM4.
4. STORAGE - Simpan
A location in which data, instructions, and information are saved for future use.
Example of devices:
lokasi menyimpan data, arahan dan maklumat untuk kegunaan pada masa depan
contoh : CDROM,disket,cakera keras dan flash disk
Define computer system
Sistem komputer adalah kombinasi komponen yang direkabentuk untuk memproses data dan menyimpan fail / maklumat
