Introduction on CPU
Central Processing UNIT (CPU) or Processor
CPU is the ‘heart’ of the digital computer, its is
responsible for reading a program’s instruction from
memory and executing it, and then control input’s and
output’s within the machine.
To start with a program in (PC) this points to the next
instruction and executed. Therefore, if the contents of
Computer are five, the next instruction to be executed
is stored in memory location 5. The program is called
as a pointer.
The contents of the program are always copied to
the memory address register (MAR). The program
contents are then incremented with the next
instruction. The MAR holds the address of the
memory location and in the memory data gets
located.
The contents of MAR :
MAR contents during this part of the cycle contains
address of the instruction and executed, the contents
of this memory are always placed in the memory
data register (MDR).
• During the cycle the data which is passed
from memory is called instruction.
• The instruction gets moved MDR to the
instruction register (IR) and further its
divided into two fields.
• The first field in the operation code is often shortened to opcode, which
tells the CPU which instruction to carry out.
• Further second field in the operand field contains the address/data (or all
the addresses) of data used by the instruction. Sometimes the operand field
may not get used.
