                  1. Input                                    1. BZnwQ>
                      It refers to the devices which help user en-  H$åß`yQ>a Ho$ dh {hñgo {OZH$s ghm`Vm go ~mhar
                  ter information inside the computer.  In  other  OmZH$mar A§Xa àdoe H$aVr h¡, BZnwQ> H$hbmVo h¡ Ÿ& EH$
                  words, Input is the device with the help of which
                  a user operates a computer. Keyboard and mouse  Cn`moJH$Vm© BZH$s ghm`Vm go hr H$åß`yQ>a na H$m`©
                  are  very popular examples  of input devices.  H$aVm h¡ Ÿ& H$s~moS>© VWm _mCg BZnwQ> Ho$  ~hþV hr AÀN>o
                  Other examples are scanner, light pen, joystick,  CXmhaU h¢ Ÿ& Xygao CXmhaUm| _| ñHo$Za, bmB©Q> noZ,
                  microphone, etc. Each input device is connected
                  to the computer at a device called input port.  Om°`pñQ>H$ VWm Q´>og~mb AmVo h¢ Ÿ& gmao BZnwQ> H$åß`yQ>a
                  The function of the input device is to provide  _| EH$ ñWmZ na Ow‹S>o hmoVo h¢, {Ogo BZnwQ> nmoQ>© H$hVo
                  binary information in accordance with the infor-  h¡ Ÿ& BZnwQ> H$m H$m`© hmoVm h¡ {H$ dh H$åß`yQ>a H$mo ~mBZar
                  mation received from the user. Thus, each de-  _| OmZH$mar àXmZ H$a|, Bgr{bE àË`oH$ H$åß`yQ>a _|
                  vice is associated with necessary circuits to con-
                  vert the information into binary. For example, in  BZnwQ> Ho$ gmW Amdí`H$ BboŠQ´>m°{ZH$ n[anW Ow‹S>o hmoVo
                  a keyboard an integrated circuit is needed which  h¢Ÿ& CXmhaUV: H$s~moS>© Ho$ gmW EH$ n[anW hmoVm h¡
                  is called keyboard controller.              {Ogo H$s~moS>© H§$Q´>moba H$hVo h¢&

                      Output devices are used to  provide the     AmCQ>nwQ> `wpŠV`m± n[aUm_  àXmZ H$aVr h¢Ÿ&  Omo
                  result. Whatever information we enter, can be  OmZH$mar BZnwQ> go àXmZ H$aVo Cgr H$mo AmCQ>nwQ> àX{e©V
                  seen with the help of an output device. Moni-
                  tor is a  popular  example  of output device.  ^r H$aVm h¡Ÿ& _m°ZrQ>a AmCQ>nwQ> H$m EH$ bmoH${à` CXmhaU

                  tion of  the  output device  is to  provide the  {S>dmBg H$m H$m`© `h hmoVm h¡ {H$ dh bmoJm| H$mo g_w{MV
                  result to the people in suitable form. But out-  ê$n go OmZH$mar àXmZ H$a|Ÿ& bo{H$Z Bgo H$åß`yQ>a n[anW

                  computer. Thus, each output  device has  a  go ~mBZar _| OmZH$mar {_bVr h¡, Omo bmoJ AmgmZr go
                  circuitary to convert binary information into  g_P Zht gH$VoŸ& AV… àË`oH$ AmCQ>nwQ> `wpŠV H$m n[anW
                  people understandable form. This  circuit is  Bg OmZH$mar H$mo bmoJm| Ho$ g_PZo `mo½` ñdê$n _| ~XbH$a
                  called, controller. For example, CRT control-  àXmZ H$aVm h¡Ÿ&  Bg  n[anW H$mo H§$Q´>moba H$hVo  h¢Ÿ&
                  ler circuit is associated with monitor to pro-

                  device is connected to a port on the computer  h¡Ÿ& àË`oH$ AmCQ>nwQ> {S>dmBg H$åß`yQ>a _| EH$ ñWmZ na
                  which is called output port.                Ow‹S>m hmoVm h¡ {Ogo AmCQ>nwQ> nmoQ>© H$hVo h¢Ÿ&
                      Some  devices work  as input  as well  as   Hw$N> `w{º$`m± Eogr hmoVr h¢ Omo BZnwQ> VWm AmCQ>nwQ>
                  output. For example, when the system is booted,  XmoZm| H$m H$m`© H$aVr h¢Ÿ& O¡go, O~ h_ H$åß`yQ>a H$mo Mmby
                  the essential portion of the operating system is  H$aVo h¢ Vmo Am°naoqQ>J {gñQ>_ H$m Oê$ar {hñgm hmS>© {S>ñH$
                  brought  from hard  disk into the RAM. Here
                  Harddisk works as an input device. But when  go {ZH$bH$a ao_ _| Am OmVm h¡Ÿ& Bg g_` hmS>© {S>ñH$
