The role of the input/output controller in a computer system is to manage the communication between the computer's central processing unit (CPU) and the peripheral devices. It is responsible for controlling the data transfer between the CPU and the input/output devices such as keyboards, mice, printers, and storage devices. The input/output controller handles the input and output operations, converts the data into a format that can be understood by the CPU, and ensures the efficient and reliable transfer of data between the computer and its peripherals.
