What is a expanded form of BITS?
Background Intelligent Transfer Service.
Is EISA a type of expansion slot or bus design used in advanced technology class systems?
The original XT PC computers internal data bus was 8 bits wide and was called the ISA bus or Industry Standard Architecture An improvement to this design was the internal data bus that was 16 bits wide and named EISA or Extended Industry Standard Architecture EISA was the cutting edge design when the Intel 386 processor was introduced.
How many bits does MCA have?
MCA is a 32 bit expansion bus
Why are there different types of RAM?
The different types of computer architecture makes it important to have different types of RAM that suit them. The architecture may be on the number of bits that the motherboard supports.
What is the purpose of ISA slots?
IA stands for Industrial Standard Architecture and is used for transfer data bits
What is an expansion slot used for?
You plug bits of circuit board into slots to gain extra functionality.

What is the storage capacity of register?
The storage capacity of a register is determined by the architecture. Thus they are 32 bits long on a 32-bit system and 64 bits long on a 64-bit system.
What expansion slot found in desktop computers that carries 32-bits of data and runs at 33MHz?
PCI
What is bits?
Bits are way measuring data. Eight bits equal one byte. One thousand bytes equal one kilobyte. One thousand kilobytes equal one megabyte and so on.
How many bytes a char pointer takes?
In 32 bit address space it will most likely be 4 bytes, since 8 bits is a byte and 32 bits / 8 bits = 4. In 64 bit address space it should be 8 bytes (64 bits / 8 bits = 8). It is architecture dependent so use the sizeof() function.
What are four binary units?
The four binary units are bit (binary digit), nibble (4 bits), byte (8 bits), and word (usually 16, 32, or 64 bits depending on the computer architecture).
