Explain secondary memory in detail.ORTo store large volume of data permanently. Which memory is used? Explain.

Answer»

Primary memory has a limited storage capacity and it is not permanent that is why to store large volume of data permanently secondary memory or storage devices are used. They are of many types and they vary in the capacity of storage, speed of data access and media of storage. Nowadays magnetic disks and optical disks are commonly used. 

1. Magnetic Disk: 

Magnetic disk allows the storage and retrieval for contents of the disk from anywhere at a moderate speed. Magnetic Disks available in various size and storage capacity but the storage media and data access mechanism are similar. 

The storage media is circular platters or disks coated with magnetic material. It consists of a spindle capable of rotating with the help of an electrical motor and a read/write head. 

(a) Floppy disk: Floppy means flexible or soft, it uses flexible disk. Its storage capacity is 1,44MB and slower in data transfer rate. 

(b) Hard Disk: Instead of flexible or soft disk it uses rigid material hence the name hard disk. Its storage capacity and data transfer rate are high and low access time. These are more lasting and less error prone. The accessing mechanism and storage media are combined together in a single unit and connect to the mother board via cable. 

Therefore we call it as hard disk drive (HDD). It contains one or more rigid platters coated both sides with a special magnetic material and a spindle. Datas are recorded on either surface of the disk except the outer side of last and first disk. Each surface will have one or more read/write heads (fixed head or movable head). 

The spindle is attached to a motor that rotates at high speed typically 7200 rotation per minute (rpm). A floppy disk rotates only at 300 rpm. 

2. Optical Disk: The high power laser uses a concentrated, narrow beam of light, which is focuses and directed with lenses, prisms and mirrors for recording data. 

The optical disks are given below: 

(a) Compact Disk Read Only Memory (CDROM): The data in CDROM is imprinted.by the manufacturers. The user cannot erase or write on the disk but user can only read its contents. CDROM is written in a single continuous spiral unlike magnetic disks that uses concentric circles. Its storage capacity is 700MB. 

(b) Erasable Optical Disk: The disadvantage of CDROM is that we cannot change or erase the contents. But erasable disks can be changed and erased. 

(c) Digital Versatile Disk: It is capable of storing up to 4.7GB and more faster. 

(d) Blu-ray Disc: It is used to read and write High Definition video data as well as to store very huge amount of data. While Cd and DVD uses red laser to read and write but it uses Blue Violet laser, hence the name Blu ray disc. The blue-violet laser has shorter wavelength than a red laser so it can pack more data tightly.

3. Semiconductor storage (Flash memory): It uses EEPROM chips. It is faster and long lasting. 

1. USB flash drive: It is also called thumb drive or pen drive. Its capacity varies from 2 GB to 32 GB. 

2. Flash memory cards: It is used in Camera, Mobile phones, tablets etc to store all types of data.

Your friend wants to buy a printer. He wants to know more about printers. Explain different types of printers.

Answer»

Printer: There are two types of printers impact and non-impact printers. Printers are used to produce hard copy. 

Impact Printers: There is a mechanical contact between print head and the paper. 

1. Dot Matrix Printer: Here characters are formed by using dots. The printing head contains a vertical array of pins. The letters are formed by using 5 dot rows and 7 dot columns. Such a pattern is called 5 × 7 matrix. 

This head moves across the paper, the selected pins fire against an inked ribbon to form characters by dot. They are capable of faster printing, but their quality is not good.

2. Non-impact Printers: 

There is no mechanical contact between print head and paper so carbon copies cannot be possible to take. They are inkjet, laser, thermal printers etc.

(a) Inkjet Printer: 

It works in the same fashion as dot matrix printers, but the dots are formed with tiny droplets of ink to be fired from a bottle through a nozzle. These droplets are deflected by an electric field using horizontal and vertical deflection plates to form characters and images.

It is possible to generate colour output. They produce less noise and produce high quality printing output. The printing cost is higher. Here liquid ink is used. 

(b) Laser Printer: 

It uses photo copying technology. Here instead of liquid ink dry ink powder called toner is used. A drum coated with positively charged photo conductive material is scanned by a laser beam. The positive charges that are illuminated by the beam are dissipated. The drum is then rolled through a reservoir of negatively charged toner which is picked up by the charged portions of the drum.

It adheres to the positive charges and hence creating a page image on the drum. Monochrome laser printer uses a single toner whereas the colour, laser printer uses four toners. Its print quality is good less noise and printing cost is higher.

(c) Thermal Printers: 

It is same as dot matrix printer but it needs heat sensitive paper. It produces images by pushing electrically heated pins to the special paper. It does not make an impact on the paper so we cannot produce carbon copies. It produce less noise, low quality print and inexpensive. It is used in fax machine.

3. Plotter: 

A plotter is a device that draws pictures or diagrams on paper based on commands from a computer. Plotters draw lines using a pen. Pen plotters generally use drum or flat bed paper holders. In a drum plotter the paper is mounted on the surface of a drum. 

Here the paper is rotated. But in a flatbed plotter the paper does not move and the pen holding mechanism provides the motion that draws pictures. Plotters are used in engineering applications where precision is needed.

4. Three Dimensional (3D) printer: 

This device is used to print 3D objects.
