Computer memory refers to physical devices that temporarily or permanently store data for processing. It comes in various units including bits, bytes, kilobytes, megabytes, gigabytes, terabytes, petabytes, exabytes, zettabytes and yottabytes. Bits are the smallest unit, with a byte made up of 8 bits. Kilobytes measure small files, megabytes medium files, and gigabytes larger files and storage. Terabytes and petabytes represent substantial and massive storage capacities used for large data and applications. Larger units like exabytes and beyond scale to quintillions and septillions of bytes.

UNITS OF COMPUTER

MEMORY
ASSIGNED BY: MA'AM MEHTAB JABEEN
PRESENTED BY: SADAF BUTT
 Computer memory refers to the physical devices
used to store data temporarily or permanently for
COMPUTER processing by a computer.
 It is a crucial component that enables computers to
MEMORY perform tasks and store information.
 Examples: RAM, ROM, Secondary storage etc...
 Bits
 Bytes
 Kilobytes (KB)
UNITS OF  Megabytes (MB)
COMPUTER  Gigabytes (GB)
MEMORY  Terabytes (TB)
 Petabytes (PB)
 Exabytes (EB)
 Zettabytes (ZB)
 Yottabytes (YB)
 The smallest unit of digital information, a bit
can have a value of either 0 or 1. It is the basic
building block of digital data and is often used
BIT to represent a binary decision in computing.
AND
 A group of 8 bits is known as a byte. Bytes are
BYTES commonly used to represent a single character
in a computer, and they are the fundamental
unit of storage in most computer systems.
 Kilobyte (KB):
 1 KB is equivalent to 1,024 bytes, commonly used
to measure small files and data.
For example: pictures, short voice notes etc
KILOBYTES,  Megabyte (MB):
MEGABYTES 1 MB equals 1,024 KB or approximately one million
bytes, often used for medium-sized files and
AND GIGA documents.
BYTES For example: Videos, Files etc
 Gigabyte (GB):
 1 GB equals 1,024 MB or roughly one billion bytes,
commonly used to measure larger files,
applications, and storage capacities.
For example: Memory of phones, computers etc
 Terabytes (TB):
 One Terabyte is equivalent to 1,024 gigabytes or
approximately one trillion bytes. It represents a
substantial storage capacity commonly used for large-
scale data, multimedia, and applications.
TERABYTES
AND  Petabytes (PB):
 A Petabyte is 1,024 terabytes or roughly one quadrillion
PETABYTES bytes. This massive storage unit is utilized in data
centers, cloud computing, and other environments
dealing with extensive datasets and information.
Beyond Petabytes, there are: Exabytes (EB),
Zettabytes (ZB), Yottabytes (YB).
LARGEST
UNITS OF These units represent progressively larger
COMPUTER scales of digital storage, with exabytes in the
quintillions, zettabytes in the sextillions, and
MEMORY yottabytes in the septillions of bytes.
