interpretation of English nouns for computer majors

1, the company and its trademark name

Microsoft: Sometimes shrinking MS is the name of the world's most famous software company, the American software giant Microsoft. Microsoft is actually composed of two English words: Micro meaning "small", soft meaning "soft", here should be "Software, software", as the name suggests, Microsoft (Microsoft) is specialized in the production of software companies. More than 90% of today's computers are loaded with Microsoft's operating system, such as MS-DOS 6.22, Windows 3.2, Windows 95, Windows NT, and so on.

Intel Corporation, the world's largest CPU (the central processing unit, known as the heart of a computer) and related chip manufacturers. About 80% of all computers are CPUs produced by Intel Corporation. Its products from the early 8088 to the current popular Pentium, Pentium Pro, Pentium MMX, Pentiumⅱ and so on.

Pentium, Pentium Pro, Intel Inside Logo: are registered trademarks of Intel Corporation. Pentium (/′pentjm/) is a well-known CPU brand name, translated as "Pentium." The "Pentium" computer, which has been praised and shut down, is the result of a "Pentium" CPU produced by Intel Corporation that is installed on the computer.

AMD: The world's second largest CPU manufacturer, the main products are K5,K6 MMX CPU series.

CYRIX:CPU manufacturers, the main products are m1,m2 MMX CPU series.

Epson: Epson, Japanese Epson printer manufacturer.

HP: HP, Hewlett Packard, is the famous American Hewlett-Packard printer, computer manufacturer.

Canon: Canon, the famous printer trademark. Japan's famous Canon printer manufacturer. Canon English meaning "Religious regulations, standards", you can see that canon at the beginning of entrepreneurship, is determined to put their products as the industry's "standard."

COMPAQ: "Compaq", the Compaq computer Company, is one of the largest computer companies in the world.

IBM: Is International Business Machine Company (American International Commercial Machinery) abbreviation. IBM is an established computer manufacturer in the United States, its products are internationally renowned brands.

Apple: English for "Apple", the United States of America, the company to produce high-performance professional-grade computer known to the world.

Acer: Taiwan's famous Acer  computer company. Tulip: English meaning "tulip", from Europe's famous computer business, Tulip Computer company.

Sony: Sonny, Sony, Japan.

Toshiba: Toshiba, Japan Toshiba Computer Company, mainly produces notebook computers.

Philips: Philips, Philips, the main production of color display, optical drive, household appliances and so on.

Sumsung: Samsung, Samsung, Korea, the famous manufacturer of color display, but also the production of optical drives, household appliances and so on.

2. Common hardware name and device name

Cpu:central processing Unit, a central processor, also called the CPU or microprocessor, is dubbed the heart of the computer.

Ram:random Access Memory, random memory, the "memory" that people often say.

Rom:read-only Memory, read-only memory.

edo:extended data output. When the CPU processing speed is increasing, it is also required to continuously improve the speed of DRAM transmission data, in general, FPM (Fast Page Model) DRAM transmission data speed in 60-70ns, and Edo dram than FPM 3 times times faster, up to 20ns. At present the fastest is SDRAM (synchronous DRAM, synchronous dynamic memory), its access speed of up to 10ns.

sdram:synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory, synchronous dynamic random memory, also known as synchronous DRAM, is a new generation of active memory. 　　It can use the same clock as the CPU bus, so the SDRAM memory can greatly improve the performance of the computer compared with the Edo memory. Cache: The Meaning of "(exploration personnel, etc. storage of food, equipment, etc.) cellar; The computer is a cache memory, located between CPU and main memory dram (Dynamic Randon Access Memory), small, but high speed memory, usually by SRAM (static Random Access Memory static memory) Composition

CMOS: is the abbreviation of complementary Metal oxide semiconductor, which means complementary metal oxide semiconductors (the complementary metal oxide semiconductor memory). CMOS is a battery-powered memory (RAM) used by most computers today. It is an important tool to determine the hardware configuration of the system, optimize the overall performance of the microcomputer and maintain the system. It holds information about the hardware settings of the system, and this information continues to exist after the shutdown (this is completely different from RAM). When powering up, the computer needs to use this information to start the system. If inadvertently or accidentally confused the information kept in the CMOS, the computer system will not start normally.

Pci:peripheral Component Interconnection, local bus
