within a computer may vary from a few thousandths of an inch, as is the case within a single IC chip, to as much as several feet along the backplane of the main circuit board. Over such small distances, digital data may be transmitted as direct, two-level electrical signals over simple copper conductors. Except for the fastest computers, circuit designers are not very concerned about the shape of the conductor or the analog characteristics of signal transmission. Frequently, however, data must be

ELECTRONIC ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT UNIVERSITY OF IBADAN NIGERIA REGION 8 HISTORY OF THE COMPUTER ABSTRACT This paper takes a keen look at the history of computer technology with a view to encouraging computer or electrical electronic engineering students to embrace and learn the history of their profession and its technologies. Reedy (1984) quoted Aldous Huxley thus: “that men do not learn very much from the lessons of history is the most important of all the lessons that history has to teach

this field was an outgrowth of electrical engineering, an area concerned with the movement of electrons along conductors. As the field of electronics has expanded in scope, however, so has its definition, and today the term encompasses all areas of technology concerned with the behavior of electrons in electronic devices and equipment, including electrical engineering. Although the field of electronics had its most spectacular growth and development during the 20th century, it is actually the product

Chapter 3 Introduction to Microcontrollers 3.1 Just a Start Up A microcontroller (also MCU or ¥ìC) is a computer-on-a-chip. It is a type of micro-computer element that emphasizing high integration, low power consumption, self-sufficiency and cost-effectiveness, in contrast to a general-purpose microprocessor. In addition to the usual arithmetic and logic elements of a general purpose microprocessor, the microcontroller typically integrates additional elements such as read-write memory for

be investigated is the ethical use of information technology in a modern society. “Information technology basically refers to the employment of computer hardware and software applications to manage data” (K Alliance). Historically, information technology had limited applications and its impact on society was also limited. Information technology has come a long way since Jean Hoerni first developed the planar transistor whereby microscopic circuit boards could be laid out on the silicon surface, thus

REPRESENTING DATA, PICTURES, TIME, AND SIZE IN A COMPUTER ASCII. Computers are based on integrated circuits (chips), each of which includes millions of sub-miniature transistors that are interconnected on a small (less than l-inch-square) chip area. Each transistor can be in either an “on” or an “off” position. The “on-off” states of the transistors
