Integrated circuits,or IC's, pack a huge number of transistors, diodes, resistors and capacitors on to a slice of silicon. Component numbers in processor chips now exceed 10 to 20 million from just 10's in the 1960's.

What is the the major difference between integrated and non integrated motherboard?

Nonintegrated system board , each major assembly is installed in the computer as an expansion card. Major assembles we are talking about are items like the video circuitry, disk controllers, and accessories. It is hard to find them these days. Integrated system board. Most of the components that would otherwise be installed as expansion cards are integrated into the motherboard circuitry. . They were designed for simplicity. Of course there is a drawback for the simplicity : when one of the components breaks , u cant just replace the component that's broken , the whole motherboard must be replaced. Although these boards are cheaper to produce, they are expensive to repair.

What controlled the circuit?

An electronic component, such as a resistor, capacitor, transistor, or integrated circuit, usually controls the flow of current in an electrical circuit. It can either amplify, switch, or modulate the flow of electricity to achieve specific functions within the circuit.


What unit contains all of the central components of a computer?

Documents . Or if your talking about something else take your hard drive and break it and see what's inside Its actually the CHIP and then the MOTHER BOARD which contains all central components. Shailesh Mehta 9425082058

CPU stands for Central Processing Unit. It is the main data processing component of your computer system. It is the "brain" of the computer.


What is a computar system?

First of all, Computer system, and it can pertain to any number of a very wide variety of systems but more familiar to the household consumer is their individual computer. A laptop or a desktop. As the name suggests a laptop is a self contained system that can fit on your lap. It contains a spinning magnetic disk called a harddrive to hold local files and has most of the other components integrated into the main circuit board or "motherboard" including memory and network controllers and a graphics card. Similarly a desktop has the same components. Given the difference in size a desktop is given more space to provide more powerful components and expansions. You could however be talking about a computer system in the context of a network or system of computers communicating over a local area network or even further into a WAN or a wide area network. As this question is vague. I hope I helped.
