What card translates binary data into images on a computer screen?

If there is a dedicated card, it's commonly called a graphics card. Some computers have a graphics chip set on the motherboard, this is called integrated graphics. These are usually inferior to a dedicated card, but much cheaper.


Where isolators are placed in substation?

An isolator is a non load-breaking switch, and is provides a visible means of isolating a component, such as a circuit breaker, transformer, etc., from the high-voltage lines, whenever it is necessary to perform maintenance of that component. Normally, isolators come in pairs, with one on each side of the component to be isolated. Isolators are only opened afterthe load current has been broken using a circuit breaker, and must be closed before the circuit breaker is reclosed.To work on, say, a h.v. circuit breaker, the breaker must be tripped, the isolators on either side must be opened and locked off, temporary earths attached to either side of the circuit breake- to-work card, detailing the maintenance work, must be issued to the crew by the supervising engineer.


Who invented first motherboard?

IBM, in 1981. There was no specific invention or inventor of a first motherboard. The concept of a motherboard evolved over a number of years responding to the reduction in electronic component size. One of the original concepts in computer construction was the backplane. The backplane allowed for circuit card to be plugged in on one side. Its back had rows of pins corresponding to the socket connections. The pin connections defined how the attached circuit cards functioned and pins were connected to other pins with wires wrapped around them. As technology matured, electronic parts were combined into Integrated circuit (IC) chips which were mounted on the backplane itself and the pins and wiring on the rear of the backplane were replaced by printed circuits. This eventually became what we call a motherboard, mainboard or some equivalent name. Original microcomputers and personal computers had a central processor (CPU), memory, and control circuitry on the motherboard. That took up all the available space. Most other parts required their own support circuitry that would not fit on the motherboard so they were placed on individual circuit cards plugged into the motherboard. This included additional memory, output display, hard drives controllers, and even standard input/output ports such as serial (RS232,) Printer(parallel), mouse and game ports. Most of these eventually became compact enough to be integrated onto the motherboard board we use today.


Why does each workstation need a network card?

Because without the network card in the work station it would have no way to communicate with the central server which probably stores all the information centrally, obviously. It is also related to the sharing of printers and the internet around in the network. Therefore the use of the network card is to allow communication between the work station and the server via ethernet cables and network bridges. These could also be wireless meaning cableing would not be needed, but are not as quick or reliable, and also has a far greater risk of getting hacked into the network.

What is the difference between a smart card and a credit card?

The latest in credit card technology, a smart card stores information on an integrated microprocessor chip rather than on the magnetic strip of a regular credit card. Although not yet widely available in the United States, these cards are thought by many to be the card of the future. * Benefit: The information stored on a smart card is more secure due to the embedded chip technology.
