Explain the different steps to execute this instruction following the used registers Execute (Load AC, x) phase (with fetch operand) 3. What kinds of registers are dealing with interface between Processor and memory Units. 4. Computer A: clock rate =1.5GHz , to execute a code the CPU time = 9s We need to design a new computer B which executes the same code in: CPU time = 4s , and 1.3 x clock cycles of computer A What is the clock rate required for computer B ? 5. Explain the buses: data bus and address bus. 6. For a memory with 2n capacity, what is the size (number of bits) of the address bus
