part: #busbar__bus an electrical conductor that makes a common connection between several circuits; "the busbar in this computer can transmit data either way between any two components of the system"
part: #cathode-ray_tube__cathoderaytube__CRT a vacuum tube in which a hot cathode emits a beam of electrons that pass through a high voltage anode and are focused or deflected before hitting a phosphorescent screen
part: #electron_gun the electrode that is the source of electrons in a cathode-ray tube or electron microscope; consists of a cathode that emits a stream of electrons and the electrostatic or electromagnetic apparatus that focuses it
part: #CRT_screen__screen display on the surface of the large end of a cathode-ray tube on which is electronically created
part: #foreground.window (computer science) a window for an active application
part: #CPU__central_processing_unit__C.P.U.__central_processor__centralprocessor__processor__mainframe (computer science) the part of a computer (a microprocessor chip) that does most of the data processing; the CPU and the memory form the central part of a computer to which the peripherals are attached
part: #CPU_board__mother_board the main circuit board for a computer
part: #silicon_chip__siliconchip__chip__microchip__micro_chip__microchip electronic equipment consisting of a small crystal of a silicon semiconductor fabricated to carry out a number of electronic functions in an integrated circuit
part: #integrated_circuit__microcircuit a microelectronic computer circuit incorporated into a chip of semiconductor; a whole system rather than a single component
part: #computer_accessory an accessory for a computer
part: #computer_circuit (computer science) a circuit that is part of a computer
part: #data_converter converter for changing information from one code to another
part: #disk_cache a cache that stores copies of frequently used disk sectors in random access memory (RAM) so they can be read without accessing the slower disk
part: #diskette__floppy__floppy_disk a small plastic magnetic disk enclosed in a stiff envelope with a radial slit; used to store data or programs for a microcomputer; "floppy disks are noted for their relatively slow speed and small capacity and low price"
part: #computer_hardware__hardware the mechanical, magnetic, electronic, and electrical components making up a computer system
part: #keyboard device consisting of a set of keys on a piano or organ or typewriter or typesetting machine or computer or the like
part: #action_mechanism__action the operating part that transmits power to a mechanism; "the piano had a very stiff action"
part: #key.lever a lever that actuates a mechanism when depressed
part: #memory_board__memory__storage__store an electronic memory device; "a memory and the CPU form the central part of a computer to which peripherals are attached"
part: #register.memory_device (computer science) memory device that is the part of computer memory that has a specific address and that is used to hold information of a specific kind
part: #monitoring_device__monitor display consisting of a device that takes signals from a computer and displays them on a CRT screen
part: #cathode-ray_oscilloscope__cathoderayoscilloscope__oscilloscope__scope__CRO electronic equipment that provides visual images of varying electrical quantities
part: #cathode-ray_tube__cathoderaytube__CRT a vacuum tube in which a hot cathode emits a beam of electrons that pass through a high voltage anode and are focused or deflected before hitting a phosphorescent screen
part: #computer_peripheral__peripheral__peripheral_device (computer science) electronic equipment connected by cable to the CPU of a computer; "disk drives and printers are important peripherals"
part: #operating_system__operatingsystem__OS (computer science) software that controls the execution of computer programs and may provide various services
part: #supervisory_program__supervisoryprogram__supervisor__executive_program__executiveprogram a program that controls the execution of other programs
part: #supervisory_routine__supervisoryroutine__executive_routine__executiveroutine a routine that coordinates the operation of subroutines
