Arithmetic and Logic Unit (ALU)

The ALU has two input registers, A and B, and one output register C. It performs the operation C = A op B based on the operation specified in the control lines. For example, if the control lines are 000, addition is performed on the data in registers A and B, and the result is stored in register C. The ALU uses basic hardware operations to implement more complex operations not directly feasible in hardware.

The ALU has got two input registers named as A and B and one output storage register, named as C. It
performs the operation as:

C = A op B

The input data are stored in A and B, and according to the operation specified in the control lines, the
ALU perform the operation and put the result in register C.

As for example, if the contents of controls lines are, 000, then the decoder enables the addition operation
and it activates the adder circuit and the addition operation is performed on the data that are available in
storage register A and B . After the completion of the operation, the result is stored in register C.

We should have some hardware implementations for basic operations. These basic operations can be
used to implement some complicated operations which are not feasible to implement directly in
hardware.
