2. Main memory stores instructions and data that can be written from the data register and read from only to the data register.
4. The CPU contains registers like the data register, address register, program counter, accumulator, and an ALU. The data register can receive information from the accumulator, program counter, or memory. The address register receives from the program counter or data register. The program counter only receives from the address register. The ALU performs operations using the accumulator and data register.
The control unit contains the subroutine and control address registers to control the system.

2 Memory : Main memory(instruction/data), Control memory(microprogram)
Data written to memory come from DR, and Data read from memory can go only to DR
4 CPU Register and ALU : DR, AR, PC, AC, ALU
DR can receive information from AC, PC, or Memory (selected by MUX) AR can receive information from PC or DR (selected by MUX) PC can receive information only from AR ALU performs microoperation with data from AC and DR 2 Control Unit Register : SBR, CAR (Subroutine register, Control address register)
