4 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What is the role of the program counter in a single bus architecture?
Think about where the CPU looks for its next instruction.
What does the memory address register (MAR) do?
Consider what happens before data is fetched from memory.
What does the program counter do?
Think about how instructions are processed sequentially in a program.
True or False: The control signals are responsible for directing the ALU on what operations to perform.
Recall how signals guide the operations in a CPU.
Discuss how control signals would differ between a simple load instruction versus a complex arithmetic instruction.
Consider the number of steps involved in executing more complex operations compared to simple memory retrieval.
Evaluate the impact of single bus architecture on modern multi-core processors and how they manage instruction execution.
Think about how processors have evolved to address limitations of traditional architectures.
