MICROPROCESSOR
1. Common Hardware Instruction
2. Micro Instruction Format
3. Design Of Control Unit
Control unit generates timing and control signals for
the operations of the computer.
The control unit communicates with ALU and main
memory.
It also controls the transmission between processor,
memory and the various peripherals.
It also instructs the ALU which operation has to be
performed on data.
It can be designed in two
ways:
1. Hardwired Control Unit
2. Microprogrammed Control
Unit
1.Hardwired Control Unit
It is implemented with the help of gates, flip
flops, decoders etc. in the hardware. The
inputs to control unit are the instruction
register, flags, timing signals etc. This
organization can be very complicated if we
have to make the control unit large.
If the design has to be modified or changed, all the combinational
circuits have to be modified which is a very difficult task.
The branch field (BR) consists of two bits and is used with the address field to choose the address of the
next microinstruction.
