1) Flash memory
A computer chip with a read-only memory that retains its data when the power is turned off and that can be electronically erased and reprogrammed without being removed from the circuit board.
2) Graphic Cards
Is a printed circuit board that makes a computer capable of displaying and manipulating pictures. The term also refers to the images themselves.
3) Sound Card
An expansion board that enables a computer to manipulate and output sounds. Sound cards are necessary for nearly all CD-ROMs and have become a common place on modern personal computers such as laptops, smart phones and etc. Sound cards enable the computer to output sound through speakers connected to the board, to record sound input from a microphone connected to the computer, and manipulate sound stored on a disk.
4) Network Interface Card (NIC)
Often known as NIC, is an expansion board you insert into a computer so the computer can be connected to a network. Most NICs are designed for a particular type of network, protocol, and media, although some can serve multiple networks.
5) Plug and Play
Plug and Play (PnP) is a capability developed by Microsoft for its Windows 95 and later operating systems that gives users the ability to plug a device into a computer and have the computer recognize that the device is there. The end user doesn't have to tell the computer. Microsoft made Plug and Play a selling point for its Windows operating systems. A similar capability had long been built into Macintosh computers.

6) Bus Line
Bus lines are all those little wires that can be seen on the back of a circuit board. They are usually made from copper, though very high-end boards use gold. As electricity is sent across these lines, the receiving components convert the electricity into binary codes.
7) High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI)
it is the first industry-supported uncompressed, all-digital audio/video interface. It's a single cable and user-friendly connector that replaces the maze of cabling behind the home entertainment center. HDMI provides an interface between any audio/video source, such as a set-top box, DVD player, or A/V receiver and an audio and/or video monitor, such as a digital television (DTV), over a single cable. HDMI supports standard, enhanced, or high-definition video, plus multi-channel digital audio on a single cable.
8) Cache Memory
A memory cache, sometimes called a cache store or RAM cache, is a portion of memory made of high-speed staticRam-dynamic Ram (DRAM) used for main memory. Memory caching is effective because most programs access the same data or instructions over and over.
