Computer System Architecture - Central Processing Unit
- A
Hard wired control, vertical microprogramming, horizontal micro-programming.
- B
Hard wired control, horizontal microprogramming, vertical micro-programming.
- C
Horizontal micro-programming, vertical microprogramming, Hard wired control.
- D
Vertical micro-programming, horizontal microprogramming, hard wired control.
- Option : B
- Explanation : Hardwired control is the fastest. Since horizontal microprogramming involves lesser number of instructions, it is faster than vertical microprogramming.
- Option : A
- Explanation : Control memory processor has 26 bit microinstruction divided into three field microoperation field is 13.
So, next address field (X) = 10
MAX select field = 3
Size of control = 210 = 1024
Consider the following assembly language program
for a hypothetical processor. A, B and C are 8 bit
registers. The meanings of various instructions are
shown as comments.
MOV B, # 0 ; B ⇽ 0
MOV C, # 8 ; C ⇽ 8
Z : CMP C, # 0 ; Compare C with 0
JZ X ; Jump to X if 0 flag is set
SUB C, # 1 ; C ⇽ C – 1
RRC A, # 1 ; Rotate right A through carry by
one bit
JC Y ; Jump to Y if any carry flag is set
JMP Z ; Jump to Z
Y : ADD B, # 1 ; B ⇽ B + 1
JMP Z ; Jump to Z
X
- Option : B
- Explanation : The value of B after execution of the program is number of 1 bits in A0 because Jump is occur only when carry flag is set to 1.
