1. Microprocessor.
2. Memory and units of storage.
1. RAM.
2. Cache memory.
3. ROM BIOS.
4. Storage devices.
3. Motherboard and connecting devices.
1. Connecting external devices.

3. MICROPROCESOR
 Integrated central and most complex circuit of an IT
system. It is considered to be the "brain" of a
computer.
 The microprocessor executes instructions stored as
binary numbers organized sequentially in the main
memory.

4. MICROCESADOR
 Circuito integrado central y más complejo de un
sistema informático, se le suele llamar por analogía el
«cerebro» de un computador.
 Ejecuta instrucciones almacenadas como números
binarios organizados secuencialmente en la memoria
principal.

5. MEMORY AND UNITS OF
STORAGE
 RAM.
 Cache memory.
 ROM BIOS.
 Storage devices.

6. MEMORIA Y UNIDADES DE
ALMACENAJE
 RAM.
 Memoria de almacenamiento temporal.
 BIOS de memoria sólo de lectura.
 Dispositivos de almacenaje.

7. RAM
 The random access memory is used as a work memory
for the operating system, the programs and the
majority of the software.
 One of the first types of RAM memory was the
magnetic core memory.

8.  The expression RAM memory is frequently used to
describe the memory units located in personal
computers and servers.

9. RAM
 La memoria de acceso aleatorio se utiliza como
memoria de trabajo para el sistema operativo, los
programas y la mayoría del software.
 Uno de los primeros tipos de memoria RAM fue la
memoria de núcleo magnético.

10.  Se utiliza frecuentemente para describir los módulos
de memoria utilizados en los computadores personales
y servidores.

11. CACHE MEMORY
 RAM cannot work at the same speed in the
microprocessor, so a much faster memory is installed
between the RAM and the microprocessor - the cache
memory.

12. MEMORIA DE ALMACENAMIENTO
TEMPORAL
 La RAM no puede trabajar en la misma velocidad en el
microprocesador, entonces una memoria mucho más
rápida es instalada entre la RAM y el microprocesador:
la memoria de almacenamiento temporal.

13. ROM BIOS
 ROM BIOS is an indelible chip where the basic
instructions for turning on a computer are and it also
checks all the disks, the memory ...
 The ROM BIOS was the basic system of entry / exit of
the computer IBM PC.

14. ROM BIOS
 ROM BIOS es un chip imborrable donde están las
instrucciones básicas para encender un ordenador y
esta comprueba todos los discos, memoria...
 El ROM BIOS era el Sistema Básico de Entrada/Salida
del computador IBM PC.

15. STORAGE DEVICES
 Magnetic disk:
 It's a storage system for information files.
 It stores the bytes of these files in one or a few areas of
circular tracks.
 The most common ones are the hard disks.
 External hard disks are very useful.

16.  Optical discs:
 Optical format of digital storage of information, which
consists on a circular disc in which the information is
codified and stored, doing a few microscopic grooves
with a laser on one of the flat faces that compose it.

17.  Solid-state memory:
 These devices store information using transistors acting
as switches. These switches can be either opened or
closed.
 The most common types are the flash drives and the
memory cards.

18. MOTHERBOARD AND CONECTING
DEVICES
 The motherboard
is a large board on
which all the
computer
components are
connected either
directly or in some
other way.

19. PLACA MADRE Y DISPOSITIVOS
QUE SE UNEN
 La placa base es
una gran placa
sobre la que
están conectados
directamente o
conectados de
alguna forma
todos los
componentes del
ordenador.

20. CONNECTING EXTERNAL DEVICES
In computer science, peripheral refers to the devices
and / or auxiliary and independent devices connected to
the central processing unit of a computer.

21. CONEXIÓN DE DISPOSITIVOS
EXTERNOS
En informática, se denomina periféricos a los aparatos
y/o dispositivos auxiliares e independientes conectados a
la unidad central de procesamiento de una computadora.

22. CONCLUSIONS / CONCLUSIONES
 Computer elements are commonly known as
computer hardware and they consist of elements such
as the microprocessor, the memory, the storage units
and the motherboard, where all the elements are
connected.
 A los elementos de un ordenador se les conoce
comúnmente como Hardware del ordenador y está
compuesto de elementos como el microprocesador, la
memoria y las unidades de almacenamiento y la placa
base, donde están conectados todos los elementos de
este.
