Section A
(There are 4 questions and Internal choices are in Que. 1 and Que. 4.)
1. Identify the following:
a) ALU
b) Bit
OR
a) Tailor-made software, ERP
b) IDE/Development tools
1 mark for each correct answer.
2. Which device is used to do the following work?
a. To output audio - Speaker
b. To make a hard copy - Printer
c. To take input from voice - Mic
d. To enter textual data – Keyboard
𝟏⁄ Mark for each correct device

3. Octal number system has base of 8. It contains numbers in the range from 0 to
7. The number is represented in this form – 107
2 marks for relevant answer
4. i) Boolean Functions - A Boolean function refers to a function having n
number of entries or variables, so it has 2n number of possible combinations of
the given variables. Such functions produce the output only in 0s and 1s.
ii) Binary Valued Variables: Boolean variables are represented as binary
numbers to represent truths: 1 = true and 0 = false.
1 mark for each appropriate definition
OR
What is truth table? Explain in detail.
Ans.:
A truth table shows the results of a logical expression, with individual columns
for each involved variable, and a column for their corresponding outcomes. All
variations of the inputs or arguments are listed to the left, while the output is
usually placed in the last columns to the right.
Example: The truth table for the logical AND operator (2-input AND gate).

5. Assembler: Assembler is a language translator that is used to convert assembly
language code into machine code.
Compiler : It converts high level language code into binary code. It compiles
the entire program once and then return errors.
Interpreter: It converts high level language code into binary code. It checks
the program line by line and stop the program execution where error comes.

7. There are three basic operators used in truth functions. They are :
a) not - It negates the logical operations. It has one operand and returns 1 if
input is 0 and returns 0 is input is 1. It is denoted as bar A’.
b) and – It is binary operator that operates on two variables and known as
logical conjunction. It returns 1 when both inputs are 1 other wise 0.
c) or – It is also a binary operator that operates on two variables and known as
logical disjunction. It returns 0 when both inputs are 0 otherwise 1.
1 mark for each function’s appropriate explanation
Section C
There are 2 questions and Internal choice is given in Question 9.
8.
Ans.:

CPU

CU ALU MU

Primary Secondary
Memory Memory

RAM ROM

In computer organization CPU functions as the core of the organization. It

accepts the request from input unit and send other parts of it to process the
request.
The CPU has three main parts:
1. CU – CU functions like manager of the CPU. It controls, directs, determines
the request accepted from CPU and send to the other parts for the
processing.
2. ALU – It performs arithmetic and logical operations on the request accepted
from CU. After completion of the task the request is sent to MU for storage.
3. MU – It has two types: Primary Memory and Secondary Memory. It saves
the data in temporary form or permanently.
