No not really, it's the brain.

CPU is the Central processing Unit which receives input via input devices like keyboard, mouse , scanner, mic etc. It's main job is to process the input and send to the relevant o/p device.

It controls the flow and process of instructions, in time with a clock pulse.

It needs to handle both input and output of binary data.

Every input device attached to the motherboard bus lines has a direct line of communication with the CPU. These lines are known as interrupt request lines (IRQs) which can be prioritised. By signalling the CPU that an input is pending, the CPU can alert the operating system to deal with the request, which will then be prioritised accordingly.
