Question

Which of these transfers data to and from a peripheral and the CPU? (1 point)

Answer 1

The component that transfers data to and from a peripheral and the CPU is typically known as a **controller** or **interface**. In many systems, this would be referred to as a **device controller**, such as a **disk controller** for hard drives or an **I/O controller** for input and output devices. Additionally, buses (like the PCIe bus) and communication protocols (like USB) also facilitate the transfer of data between peripherals and the CPU.
