statement:
yT2: R2← R1, R1 ←R2

2. The outputs of four registers, R0, R1, R2. and R3, are connected through 4:1 line
multiplexer, which means that only one variable is equal to 1 at any given time, while the
other to 0. Draw a block diagram showing the hardware Implementation of the register
transfers.

3. Represent the following conditional control statements by two register transfer


statements with control functions:
