A pipelined datapath is similar to that in Figure 10-1(b), but with the delays from the top to the bottom replaced by the following values: 0.5 ns, 0.5 ns, 0.1 ns, 0.1 ns, 0.7 ns, 0.1 ns, and 0.1 ns. Determine

(a) The maximum clock frequency.

(b) The latency time.

(c) The maximum throughput for this datapath.
