Computer registers are high-speed memory storing units. It is an element of the computer processor. It can carry any type of information including a bit sequence or single data.A register should be 32 bits in length for a 32-bit instruction computer. Registers can be numbered relies upon the processor design and language rules.The instructions in a computer are saved in memory locations and implemented one after another at a time. The function of the control unit is to fetch the instruction from the memory and implement it. The control does the similar for all the instructions in the memory in ... Read More

A computer instruction is a binary code that determines the micro-operations in a sequence for a computer. They are saved in the memory along with the information. Each computer has its specific group of instructions.They can be categorized into two elements as Operation codes (Opcodes) and Address. Opcodes specify the operation for specific instructions. An address determines the registers or the areas that can be used for that operation. Operands are definite elements of computer instruction that show what information is to be operated on.It consists of 12 bits of memory that are required to define the address as the ... Read More

A computer systems create use of several storage registers that are linked to a typical operational unit is known as the arithmetic and logic unit (ALU). ALU is the central and one of the most essential units internal the CPU of the computer.All the logical and numerical operations of a computer are implemented here. The contents of a particular register are arranged in the input of ALU. ALU implements the given operation and then transfers it to the target register.The one stage of an arithmetic logic shift unit is demonstrated in the figure. The subscript i nominate a frequent stage. ... Read More

Shift micro-operations are used for the serial transfer of data and also support in conjunction with arithmetic, logic, and several data-processing operations. The contents of a register can be shifted to the left or the right.Simultaneously, that the bits are shifted, the first flip-flop holds its binary data from the serial input. In shift-left operation, the serial input transfers a bit into the rightmost position. In shift-right operation, the serial input transfers a bit into the leftmost position. The data transferred by the serial input decides the type of shift.Types of Shift Micro-operationsThere are three types of shift micro-operations are ... Read More

Logic operations are binary micro-operations implemented on the bits saved in the registers. These operations treated each bit independently and create them as binary variables.For example, the exclusive-OR micro-operation with the contents of two registers R1 and R2 is denoted by the statementP: R1←R1$\oplus$R2It determines a logic micro-operation to be implemented on the single bits of the registers supported that the control variable P = 1. Consider that each register has four bits. Let the content of R1 be 1010 and the content of R2 be 1100.The exclusive-OR micro-operation stated above represent the following logic computation −1010 Content of ... Read More

The increment micro-operation inserts one to a number in a register. For example, if a 4-bit register has a binary value 0110, it will go to 0111 after it is incremented. The increment micro-operation is performed by a 4-bit combinational circuit incrementer.This micro-operation is simply performed with a binary counter. Each time the count allowed is active, the clock pulse transition increments the content of the register by one. There can be occasions when the increment micro-operation should be completed with a combinational circuit independent of a specific register. This can be done using half-adders connected in cascade.The diagram of ... Read More

The subtraction of binary numbers can be completed effectively by creating the 2's complement of addend bits and inserting it to the augend bits. The 2's complement can be acquired by taking the 1's complement and inserting one to the least significant pair of bits.The 1's complement can be executed with inverters and one can be inserted into the sum by the input carry. The addition and subtraction operations can be consolidated into one joint circuit by containing an exclusive-OR gate with each full adder. A 4-bit adder-subtractor circuit is demonstrated in the figure.The mode input M regulates the operation. ... Read More

A Binary Adder is a digital circuit that implements the arithmetic sum of two binary numbers supported with any length is known as a binary adder. It is generated using full-adder circuits connected in sequence. The output carries from one full-adder linked to the input carry of the next full-adder.The following block diagram demonstrates the interconnections of four full-adder circuits to support a 4-bit binary adder.The augend bits of A and the addend bits of B is created by subscript numbers from right to left, with subscript 0 indicating the low-order bit. The carries are linked in a chain by ... Read More

The operations implemented on data stored in registers are known as micro-operations. A micro-operation is a basic operation implemented on the data saved in one or more registers.There are various micro-operations including addition, subtraction, increment, and decrement.Add Micro-OperationIt is described by the following statement −R3 → R1 + R2The following statement instructs the information or contents of register R1 to be inserted to data or content of register R2 and the sum must be converted to register R3.Subtract Micro-OperationExample −R3 → R1 + R2' + 1Subtract micro-operation are using minus operator we create 1's complement and add 1 to the ...

The transfer of data from a memory word to the external environment is known as a read operation. The read operation in memory transfer is represented as the transfer of data from the address register (AR) with the selected word M for the memory into the memory buffer register (MBR).[AR]M MBR=Read OperationThe control signal of the read operation starts the read operation. The read operation statement generates the data transfer from the chosen memory register M into the MBR.The transfer of new data to be saved into the memory is known as the write operation. The memory transfer in the ... Read More
