A peripheral device is a device which allows the computer to obtain information from its periphery - This may be as simple as a power button (which does not directly control the supply of mains to the machine, but rather signals to the power supply) or a HID (Human Interface Device).
Examples of HID include Mice, Keyboard, joysticks and gamepads, trackballs, trackpads... In fact anything which we use to provide information to the computer.
Any device which is connected to the computer must have a method of communicating with software which is running on the computer.
Early peripheral devices were always connected with cables however today peripheral devices can connect via one of the following means:
Any radio frequency method (includes Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, etc)
Mobile Phone
Infra-red communications are less commonly used but still supported.
A device could communicate with the computer via a network, this could mean that the device can be connected 5 feet or 500 miles away and it will appear the same to the computer (except for network speed limits and delays)
I hope this helps!
What else can I help you with?
An external wired peripheral device must have a corresponding that connect it back to the computer?

The electronic signals controlling a keyboard diaplay printer and disk drive are different therefore each peripheral device must have its own?
A: interface
Is a system unit a peripheral device?
No, peripherals are things like monitors, keyboards, mice etc. CPU is a major component that a computer must have to operate. It is a processor, all other parts are peripherals. (Some computers, some severs for example, do not need any peripherals to operate.)
How do external peripheral devices work?
External peripherals such as a keyboard must be plugged into the computer through various ports. Such ports can often be found at the back of a tower unit. Connecting through these ports forms a bridge between the device and your computer's motherboard unit, also known as plug and play. Occasionally, you may also need to install drivers for more complex external devices like printers or faxes so that the computer can properly handle the data it receives.
If two rectangles are similar then the corresponding sides are?
If two rectangles are similar, they have corresponding sides and corresponding angles. Corresponding sides must have the same ratio.
If two prisms are similar then each pair of their corresponding parts must have the same length?
Not quite.Each pair of corresponding angles must be the same.Each pair of corresponding lengths must be in the same ratio.If the ratio of their lengths is 1:1 then the two prisms are the same or congruent.ANSWER:FALSE
Rules of double-entry accounting?
The rules of the double entry state that " For every dr there must be a corresponding cr and for every cr there must be a corresponding dr "
What are two parallegrams that are congruent?
They are simply two congruent parallelograms.
What two cables are most commonly used to download multimedia content onto your computer from an external device?
The most common cable you would use to get something from an external device to your PC would be a "USB Cable", they come with almost all exteral devices, and can fit to nearly (if not all) PC's. As far as another cable to get something on your PC from an external device, I would assume it to be whats called "Firewire", it's like usb, but not all PC's have a spot to plug it into, a lot of times you must by additional hardware to support firewife. On top of that, most external devices don't use firewire.
If you install a new peripheral onto your existing computer what must be compatible?
it will explode
How can you generate a 2khz clock?
You need a timer like the LM555. while the device is stable the external components usually are not . So for a stable clock the components must be stable temperature wise.
Two polygons are similar then the corresponding angles must be?
congruent
