Peripheral devices are devices used with a computer. Most think of peripherals as non-essential devices like printers, mice, joysticks, speakers, etc. The exact function depends on the exact peripheral.
operating system
A computer device, such as a CD-ROM drive or printer, that is not part of the essential computer, i.e., the memory and microprocessor. Peripheral devices can be external -- such as a mouse, keyboard, printer, monitor, external Zip drive or scanner -- or internal, such as a CD-ROM drive, CD-R drive or internal modem. Internal peripheral devices are often referred to as integrated peripherals.
The way a computer communicates with a peripheral device is through a device driver. A device driver is a low level computer program that allows higher level programs to communicate with a hardware device connected to the computer bus. Device drivers are hardware dependent and specific to an operating system.
The five components of a computer:input devices, output devices,system unit,storage devices,and communications devices.
Oh, dude, a router is technically considered a peripheral of a computer because it's not the main computer itself. It's like the middleman of the internet world, directing traffic and making sure all your devices can connect to the internet. So yeah, it's not a computer, but it's still pretty important in the grand scheme of things.
operating system
A printer, scanner and copier are classed as peripheral devices. Like the monitor, keyboard and mouse, they are not part of the main computer system, being devices attached by cable or wi-fi to the computer's motherboard and system from the outside.
system software
A computer system for one user may be just one element, a computer, and related peripheral elements, devices.
Yes speakers are peripheral devices, along with keyboards, mice, earphones/ headphones and USB drives
The device drivers allow the operating system to communicate with peripheral devices.
A special piece of system software called a device driver.
A computer network is a system that connects multiple computers and devices to share resources and information, allowing for communication and data exchange. Examples of peripheral devices include printers, scanners, external hard drives, and webcams, which can be connected to a computer or network to enhance its functionality and facilitate various tasks.
A peripheral device is a device that connects to the system unit of a computer. Examples include keyboards, mice, printers, and external hard drives. These devices extend the functionality of the computer system.
SCSI stands for Small Computer System Interface. It is a set of standards for connection and transfer of data to peripheral devices.
You are referring to a port.
