Conclusion We can build an ALU to support the MIPS instruction set
{"Image DocumentName": "Conclusion We can build an ALU to support the MIPS instruction set", "Image ImageDescription": "key idea: use multiplexor to select the output we want. we can efficiently perform subtraction using two\u2019s complement. we can replicate a 1-bit ALU to produce a 32-bit ALU. Important points about hardware. all of the gates are always working. the speed of a gate is affected by the number of inputs to the gate. the speed of a circuit is affected by the number of gates in series (on the critical path or the deepest level of logic ) Our primary focus: comprehension, however, Clever changes to organization can improve performance (similar to using better algorithms in software) we\u2019ll look at two examples for addition and multiplication.", "Image XResolution": "37", "Image YResolution": "37", "Image ResolutionUnit": "Pixels/Centimeter", "Image Software": "SlidePlayer", "Image YCbCrPositioning": "Centered"}
