  4. The CPU • CPU stands for central processing unit. it is brain of computer • It is most important component of the computer. it is also called processor. • Converts data into information • It continually receives instructions to execute. Each instruction tells CPU to process data. • CPU performs all operations on data according to the given instructions. • It executes instructions and tells other parts of computers what to do. • Most of the work consists of calculations and data transfer. • Two parts • Control Unit (CU) • Arithmetic and Logic Unit (ALU)

  5. Control Unit CU • Control Unit is an important component of CPU. It acts Like a supervisor of the computer. • It controls all activities of the computer system • All the computers resources are managed from the control unit. • Think of the control unit as a traffic signal directing the flow of data through the CPU. • The CPU´s instruction for carrying out commands are built into the control unit. • The instruction or instruction set, list all the operations that the CPU can perform. • Each instruction in the instruction set is a series of basic directions that tell the CPU how to execute more complex operations.

  6. Control Unit CU It performs the following operations: • It fetches or retrieve instruction from main memory. • It interprets the instruction to find what operation is to be performed. • It controls the execution of instruction. The control unit determines the sequence in which computer programs and instructions are executed

  7. System Clock • In computers, sequence is everything. The system clock synchronizes the tasks in a computer, like loading data before manipulating it, etc. • The system clock is a circuit that emits a continuous stream of precise high and low pulses that are all exactly the same length. • One clock cycle is the time that passes from the start of one high pulse, until the start of the next. • If several events are supposed to happen in one clock cycle, the cycle is subdivided by inserting a circuit with a known delay in it, thus providing more highs and more lows.

  8. Arithmetic / Logic UnitALU ALU is a part of CPU. Actual Execution of instructions takes place in this part. All Arithmetic and Logical operations are performed in ALU. It consists of two units • Arithmetic Unit Performs arithmetic operations • Logic Unit Performs logical operations

  9. Arithmetic Operations + Addition Subtraction Multiplication Division - / *

  10. Logical Operations NOT • Evaluates conditions • Makes comparisons • Can compare • Numbers • Letters • Special characters AND OR >= <= > < < > =

  11. ALU • When the control unit encounters an instruction that involves arithmetic or logic , however, it passes that instruction to the second component of the CPU, the ALU. • The ALU performs these operations. • ALU includes a group of registers--- high speed memory locations built directly into the CPU that are used to hold the data currently being processed.

  12. ALU • ALU will use the register to hold the data currently being used for calculation. For example • CU might load two numbers from memory into the registers in the ALU. • Then it might tell the ALU divide the two numbers (an arithmetic operation) or to see whether the numbers are equal (a logical operation). • The answer to this calculation will be stored in another register before being sent out of the CPU.

  13. Registers • A location used for temporarily hold data or instructions at the moment of execution • The storage capacity of registers measures in bytes (can be 1,2,4 or 8 bytes registers).

  14. Registers in ALU • Accumulator (Acc) • storing intermediate results of computations • Status Register (SR) • to store the status of the result

  15. Registers in CU • Program Counter (PC) • to contain the address of next instruction to be executed • keep a record of the sequence of execution. • Instruction Register (IR) • to contain instruction that is being executed.

  16. Registers in CU • Memory Address Register (MAR) • to store the address of the data or instruction to be processed • Memory Data Register (MDR) • to store data or instruction to be processed.
