What does the control unit do in a CPU?
Think about the role of the CPU in executing tasks.

Think about where the CPU gets its instructions.
True or False: The program counter is responsible for executing instructions directly.
Consider the role of instruction execution in the CPU.
Design an FSM table for a hypothetical instruction 'LOAD R1, M'. Describe how the control signals would change through each state.
Break down each part of the instruction into logical steps.
Analyze how a change in the control unit architecture could impact the performance of executing an ADD instruction versus a complex instruction like JUMP.
Focus on how different instruction types might demand varying control sequences.
