difrence between risc and cisc in easiest and more words and give in the table format

Copilot

Sure! Here’s a simple comparison between RISC (Reduced Instruction Set Computer) and CISC (Complex
Instruction Set Computer) in table format:

RISC (Reduced Instruction Set CISC (Complex Instruction Set


Feature
Computer) Computer)

Instruction Set Size Small Large

Instruction
Simple Complex
Complexity

Instruction Length Fixed (e.g., 32 bits) Variable (e.g., 16-64 bits)

Execution Time Single clock cycle per instruction Multiple clock cycles per instruction

Memory Access Limited (mostly load/store) Many instructions access memory

Registers Many (e.g., 32-192) Few (e.g., 8-24)

Addressing Modes Few (e.g., 3-5) Many (e.g., 12-24)

Control Unit Hardwired Microprogrammed

Pipelining Efficient Less efficient

Power Consumption Lower Higher

Code Size Larger (more lines of code) Smaller (fewer lines of code)

Design Complexity Simpler More complex

RISC focuses on software efficiency with simpler instructions, while CISC aims to reduce the number of
instructions per program by using more complex instructions.
