4 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What is the function of the Memory Data Register (MDR)?
What role does the MDR play in data transfer?
How many buses are in a three-bus architecture?
Count the buses in the architecture.
What is the role of the Memory Data Register (MDR)?
Think about what happens when data is read from memory.
True or False: A three-bus architecture allows multiple operations to be executed simultaneously.
Consider the advantages of having more than one bus.
Design a flowchart to illustrate the data transfer from the MDR to a register using a three-bus architecture. Explain your flowchart.
Focus on depicting each stage of the data transfer clearly.
Create a table comparing the control signals needed for a single-bus architecture versus a three-bus architecture when performing the same instruction. Analyze the efficiency.
Consider how additional pathways impact signal requirements.
