i/o unit (input/Output unit)
Input/Output (I/O) Unit
ALU is primarily responsible for arithmetic and logical calculations and is not responsible for all the activities inside the processor. e.g. many processors have inbuilt memory controllers which interface with memory or bus drivers, bus arbiters all of which will be performing autonomous functions and will be interfacing with various sub modules through data or control signals. ------- A processor contains three basic components; an input/output unit, a control unit, and ALU's. The control unit manages all activities inside the processor itself. -----
control unit
Yes, the two smaller units of a processor are the Control Unit (CU) and the Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU). The CU manages and coordinates the activities of the processor, directing data flow and instruction execution. The ALU performs arithmetic and logical operations on the data processed by the CPU. Together, they enable the processor to execute instructions and carry out tasks.

No, the printer has a internal processor that manages its functions, but yes, it is a device that connects to the system unit. the computer's processor HELPS managing it, but the printer's processor do the hard stuff
The answer is False. The Control Unit of the CPU manages the switches inside the CPU.Reference: Technology In Action 8th Edition; Evans, Martin, Poatsy pp 355, second paragraph, first sentence.
The main task of the control unit (CU) within a computer's central processing unit (CPU) is to direct the operation of the processor. It manages the execution of instructions by fetching them from memory, decoding them, and coordinating the activities of the arithmetic logic unit (ALU), registers, and other components. Essentially, the control unit acts as the command center, ensuring that data flows correctly between different parts of the computer and that operations are carried out in the proper sequence.
Central Processor Unit --> CPU
The control unit (CU) is a crucial component of a computer's central processing unit (CPU) that directs the operation of the processor. It manages the execution of instructions by coordinating the activities of the CPU, including fetching instructions from memory, decoding them, and controlling the flow of data between the CPU and other components. The CU ensures that the correct sequence of operations is carried out, enabling the computer to perform complex tasks efficiently.
