Tech Differences

Printers and scanners are entirely different devices where a printer is an output device while the scanner is an input device. The notable difference between them is that the printers process the soft copy and produces its hard copy. On the other hand, the scanner does the inverse of the printer where the printed hard copied material is converted into the soft copy. Now, here the terms hardcopy and softcopy might be confusing for you. The hard copy refers to a printed form of the information … [Read more...]

We know that monitor and television are used for performing similar functions. Besides, there are several differences between them. The significant differences between the monitor and television is that television is built by merging the video monitor, RF tuner and audio speaker features. On the contrary, a monitor does not need RF tuner and audio speakers. Furthermore, the most important difference between monitor and television would lie in its size. Usually, the modern monitors and … [Read more...]

As we know that, for a computer to work properly the two most important components are hardware and software. If either of them is absent, it would not be possible to use the computer system. The hardware is the physical peripheral devices which can be touched and felt and software, programs or group of instruction which are intangible in nature are incorporated to make a computer system. The hardware of a computer could not be easily modified, or we can consider it as fixed, but the software … [Read more...]

RGB and CMYK are the colour models which provides an abstract numeric system for defining the colours with the help of three or four major numbers to show the primary colours. The fundamental difference between RGB and CMYK colour modes is that the number of channels contained by RGB is three. On the contrary, the CMYK model has four component colours. The RGB expands to Red, Green and Blue while CMYK (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow) are the complements of the red, green and blue. Both of the colour … [Read more...]

As the name suggests, serial and parallel are the two types of ports. Serial port and parallel port are mainly differentiated by their implementations where the former is employed when we want to do serial communication. As against, the parallel ports are used when we want to achieve parallel communication. Now, what the serial and parallel communication indicates here. In serial communication, the chunks of the data are sent one after the other. In contrast, in parallel communication, all … [Read more...]

Direct and indirect addressing modes are the different types of addressing modes which specifies the way of accessing the data from the memory while executing the instructions. The prior difference between the direct and indirect addressing mode is that in direct mode the address field refers directly to the memory location at which the data is stored. As against, in the indirect mode, the address field refers to the register first, which is then directed to the memory location. What is an … [Read more...]

The SOP (Sum of Product) and POS (Product of Sum) are the methods for deducing a particular logic function. In other words, these are the ways to represent the deduced reduced logic function. We can use the deduced logic function in designing a logic circuit. The prior difference between the SOP and POS is that the SOP contains the OR of the multiple product terms. Conversely, POS produces a logical expression comprised of the AND of the multiple OR terms. Before understanding SOP and POS, we … [Read more...]
