CPU
• Cup or central processing unit is the brain of every computer.
• Structure of a cpu:
• ALU-The arithmetic/logic unit contains electronic circuitry that
executes all arithmetic and logical operations
• CONTROL UNIT-The control unit of the CPU contains circuitry that uses electrical signals to direct the entire computer system to carry out, or execute, stored program instructions.
– The control unit must communicate with both the
arithmetic/logic unit and memory.
System bus• Control bus
-The control bus is used by the CPU to direct and monitor the actions of the other functional areas of the computer
• Address bus
-The address bus consists of all the signals necessary to define any of the possible memory address locations within the computer
-The control bus is used by the CPU to direct and monitor the actions of the other functional areas of the computer.
• Data Bus
- The bidirectional data bus, sometimes called the memory bus, handles the transfer of all data and instructions between functional areas of the computer.
Registers
• General purpose registers:
– A general purpose register is a memory cell.
– Each general purpose register has a unique
– It is used to store intermediate result of complex computation
• Accumulator :
– This Register is used for storing the Results those are produced by the System..
• Instruction register:
– Instruction register Contains the current instruction being executed by the CPU. – The CPU will perform the operation indicated by the instruction code contained in the instruction register.
• MAR(memory address register):
– This register holds the memory addresses of data and instructions.
– This register is used to access data and instructions from memory during the execution of an instruction.
• MDR(Memory data register):
- It is the register that contains the data to be stored in the computer storage or data after a fetch from the computer storage. – It acts like a buffer and holds anything that is copied from the memory ready for the processor to use it,
• Index register:
– A hardware element which holds a number that can be added to (or, in some cases, subtracted from) the address portion of a computer instruction to form an effective address.
– An index register in a computer's CPU is a processor register used for modifying operand addresses during the run of a program.
Data register:
– A register used in microcomputers to temporarily store data being transmitted to or from a peripheral device
• Program counter:
– This register contains the address of the next instruction
– The value in the program counter will be increased after the cpu finishes executing one instruction.
• Process status register:
• – This register contains the various information about the cpu.
• – For ex: the result of a comparison operation.
• – When the CPU compares 2 numbers a and b the outcome of the comparison is stored in the PSR The outcome of a compare operation will allow the CPU to determine the following fact between a and b
• Equal
• Not equal
• Greater than
• Greater than or equal
• Less than
• Less than or equal
Types of instruction
Cpu executes following 3 types of instructions
1. Arithmatic and logic operation • Eg: +,-,and,or
• The result of an arithmatic operation is often stored in general purposeregisters.
• Memory transfer instruction
• Transfer the content from some specific memory location to a specificregister(memory cell) in the cpu and vice versa
2.Branch instructions
• – A branch instruction will cause the cpu to branch or jump to the
specified location in memory.
• – after the jump has occurred the cpu will continue to execute the instructions in sequence until another branch or jump instruction is encountered
• – There are two types of branch instructions:
• A unconditional branch instruction always cause the cpu to jump to the target location.
• A conditional branch instruction will only cause the cpu to jump to the target location when the specified condition is met.
Instruction execution cycle
• Fetch the instruction
• Decode the instruction
• Execute the instruction
• Store the instruction
Fetch
• 1. Load the address of next instruction in the PC into the MAR.
– So that the control unit can fetch the instruction from the right part of the memory.
2. Copy the instruction/data that is in the memory address given by the MAR into the MDR.
– MDR is used whenever anything is to go from the CPU to main memory, or vice versa.
3. Increment the PC by 1.
– So that it contains the address of the next instruction, assuming that the instructions are in consecutive locations.
4. Load the instruction/data that is now in the MDR into the IR. –
Thus the next instruction is copied from memory -> MDR -> IR.
Decode
• 1. Contents of IR split into operation code and address if present e.g. store, add or jump instructions.
• 2. Decode the instruction that is in the IR
Execute
• If the instruction is a jump instruction then
– Load the address part of the instruction in the IR into the PC.
• If the instruction is an input / load (directly) instruction then take data input and place in accumulator.
• If the instruction is a load (from memory) instruction.
– Copy address part of the instruction (to load from) in the IR into MAR.
– Copy data from memory address held in MAR to MDR. – Copy data in MDR into accumulator
Store the output
• Result of calculations in cpu stored in main memory or sent to output devices.
• program Counter could be updated to a new address
