Microprocessor contain ROM chip because it contain instructions to execute data. Read More

The processing speed depends on DATA BUS WIDTH. Read More

The address bus is unidirectional because the address information is always given by the Micro Processor to address a memory location of an input / output devices. Read More

In primary storage device the storage capacity is limited. It has a volatile memory. In secondary storage device the storage capacity is larger. It is a nonvolatile memory. Primary devices are: RAM / ROM. Secondary devices are: Floppy disc / Hard... Read More

RAM: Read / Write memory, High Speed, Volatile Memory. ROM: Read only memory, Low Speed, Non Voliate Memory. Read More

If for a short period of time circuits goes to some different logic level then it is supposed to have then it is called static hazard.e.g. If the final logic value of output of a given circuit becomes one even if it is supposed to be zero then it is... Read More

Latch is a D- type flip-flop used as a temporary storage device controlled by a timing signal, which can store 0 or 1. The primary function of a Latch is data storage. It is used in output devices such as LED, to hold the data for display. Read More

Interrupt is a signal send by external device to the processor so as to request the processor to perform a particular work. Read More

# ROM cannot be used as stack because it is not possible to write to ROM. # What is NV-RAM? - Nonvolatile Read Write Memory, also called Flash memory. It is also know as shadow RAM. Read More

Compiler is used to translate the high-level language program into machine code at a time. It doesn?t require special instruction to store in a memory, it stores automatically. The Execution time is less compared to Interpreter. Read More

It has limitations on the size of data. Most Microprocessor does not support floating-point operations. Read More

Interrupt is a signal send by external device to the processor so as to request the processor to perform a particular work. Read More

Floating ?gate Avalanche Injection MOS (FAMOS) transistor is used in each cell of EPROM. Read More

8-bit Processor - 8085 / Z80 / 6800; 16-bit Processor - 8086 / 68000 / Z8000; 32-bit Processor - 80386 / 80486. Read More

The processor made of PMOS / NMOS / HMOS / HCMOS technology is called 1st / 2nd / 3rd / 4th generation processor, and it is made up of 4 / 8 / 16 / 32 bits. Read More

# All x86 processors have pipelined structure. # What is flag? - Flag is a flip-flop used to store the information about the status of a processor and the status of the instruction executed most recently Read More

Flag is a flip-flop used to store the information about the status of a processor and the status of the instruction executed most recently Read More

For D Latch:always@(enable)q<=d; For D flip flop:always@(posedge clock)q<=d; Read More

Cache memory is a small high-speed memory. It is used for temporary storage of data & information between the main memory and the CPU (center processing unit). Thecache memory is only in RAM. Read More

Nonvolatile Read Write Memory, also called Flash memory. It is also know as shadow RAM. Read More

High-density n- type Complimentary Metal Oxide Silicon field effect transistor. Read More

The odd numbers of inverters behaves as oscillator and can be used for clock generation. The even number of inverters can be used for memory purpose. Read More

Static RAM: No refreshing, 6 to 8 MOS transistors are required to form one memory cell, Information stored as voltage level in a flip flop. Dynamic RAM: Refreshed periodically, 3 to 4 transistors are required to form one memory cell, Information is... Read More

The data bus is Bi-directional because the same bus is used for transfer of data between Micro Processor and memory or input / output devices in both the direction. Read More

Cache Memory is scratch pad of computer. Read More

Stack is a portion of RAM used for saving the content of Program Counter and general purpose registers. Read More

In binary representation there are some states that are believed to be never occurred due to some particular functionality of a given circuit. If zero output is assigned to such states then it is called minimal risk solution as we are resetting the... Read More

Microprocessor is a program-controlled device, which fetches the instructions from memory, decodes and executes the instructions. Most Micro Processor are single- chip devices. Read More

Because 8085 processor has 8 bit ALU (Arithmetic Logic Review). Similarly 8086 processor has 16 bit ALU. Read More

A blocking assignment is one in which the statements are executed sequentially, i.e. first statement is executed and variable is assigned a value then second is executed and so on. A nonblocking assignment is one in which statements occurs... Read More

In Microprocessor more op-codes, few bit handling instructions. But in Microcontroller: fewer op-codes, more bit handling Instructions, and also it is defined as a device that includes micro processor, memory, & input / output signal lines on a... Read More
