Howmany bits wide are the following systems? Why?
(a) An ARMCortex A72 processor (found in a Raspberry Pi 4B). Its ALU and registers are 64 bits.
Its address bus is 44 bits. Most instructions it executes are 32 bits long.
(b) An ARM 1176 found in the original Raspberry Pi 1B. Its registers, integer ALU. program
counter, and address bus are all 32-bits. It executes instructions that are 32 or 16 bits long.
(c) A MOS6502 processor (found in older desktop and embedded systems). Its registers, data bus,
and ALU are 8-bit while the instruction pointer and address bus are both 16-bit
