  • Input Devices
    Student Notes Input Devices Input is any data or instructions entered into the memory of a computer. An input device is any hardware component that allows a user to enter data and instructions into a computer. The following is a list of the most common input devices which are nowadays found in a computer system. QWERTY Keyboard glossary pg. 129, 132 A keyboard contains keys that allow a user to enter data and instructions into the computer. All computer keyboards have a typing area that includes the letters of the alphabet, numbers, punctuation marks, and other basic keys. Many desktop computer keyboards also have a numeric keypad located on the right side of the keyboard. On notebook and many handheld computers, the keyboard is built into the top of the system unit. A standard computer keyboard is called a QWERTY keyboard because of the layout of its typing area which is similar to that of a typewriter. Advantages of using keyboards for data input include It is not necessary to buy additional equipment because most computer systems are normally supplied with keyboards. Entering data and instructions with keyboards is generally faster than with pointing devices. Disadvantages of using keyboards for data input include It takes a lot of time to practice in order to type quickly and accurately. Typing speeds are still very slow when compared with computer speeds. Mouse glossary pg. 130 A mouse is the most widely used pointing device with a GUI environment on personal computers. A mechanical mouse has a rubber ball on its underside to detect movement of the mouse.

Three categories of peripheral devices exist based on their relationship with the computer: 1. an input device sends data or instructions to the computer, such as a mouse, keyboard, graphics tablet, image scanner, barcode reader, game controller, light pen, light gun, microphone, digital camera, webcam, dance pad, and read-only memory); 2. an output device provides output from the computer, such as a computer monitor, projector, printer, headphones and computer speaker); and 3. an input/output device performs both input and output functions, such as a computer data storage device (including a disk drive, USB flash drive, memory card and tape drive). Many modern electronic devices, such as internet capable digital watches, keyboards, and tablet computers, have interfaces that allow them to be used as computer peripheral devices.
