Processor Logic Design - Study Notes (MCA Level)

Key Terminologies and Full Forms

CPU: Central Processing Unit - Main unit that processes instructions.

ALU: Arithmetic Logic Unit - Performs arithmetic and logical operations.

MUX: Multiplexer - Selects one input from many.

Register: Fast storage inside CPU.

Bus: Communication pathway.

Microoperation: A basic operation on data in registers.

Accumulator: A register for holding intermediate results.

Shifter: Circuit that shifts bits.

Status Register: Holds flags like Zero, Carry.

Decoder: Selects one output based on input.

Scratchpad Memory: Fast temporary memory.

Processor Organization

- Bus Organization: Registers connected via buses.

- Scratchpad Memory: Small internal memory for fast access.

Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU)

- Performs Arithmetic and Logic operations.

- Examples: ADD, SUB, AND, OR, XOR.

Design of Arithmetic Circuit

- Parallel Adder.

- Handles Addition, Subtraction, Increment, Decrement.

Design of Logic Circuit

- Implements bitwise operations: AND, OR, XOR, NOT.

Combined ALU Design

- Multiplexer selects output between Arithmetic and Logic blocks.
