Describe the structure and functioning of processor(cpu)?
Answers
Answer:
The CPU processes instructions it receives in the process of dec0ding data. In processing this data, the CPU performs four basic steps:
Fetch Each instruction is stored in memory and has its own address. The processor takes this address number from the program counter, which is responsible for tracking which instructions the CPU should execute next.
Dec0de All programs to be executed are translated to into Assembly instructions. Assembly c0de must be dec0ded into binary instructions, which are understandable to your CPU. This step is called dec0ding.
Execute While executing instructions the CPU can do one of three things: Do calculations with its ALU, move data from one memory location to another, or jump to a different address.
Store The CPU must give feedback after executing an instruction and the output data is written to the memory.
