Computer Organization Questions and Answers – Multiple BUS Organistaion

This set of Computer Organization and Architecture Multiple Choice Questions & Answers (MCQs) focuses on “Multiple BUS Organistaion”.

1. The general purpose registers are combined into a block called as ______
a) Register bank
b) Register Case
c) Register file
d) None of the mentioned
View Answer

Answer: c
Explanation: To make the access of the registers easier, we classify them into register files.

2. In ______ technology, the implementation of the register file is by using an array of memory locations.
a) VLSI
b) ANSI
c) ISA
d) ASCI
View Answer

Answer: a
Explanation: By doing so the access of the registers can be made faster.

3. In a three BUS architecture, how many input and output ports are there?
a) 2 output and 2 input
b) 1 output and 2 input
c) 2 output and 1 input
d) 1 output and 1 input
View Answer

4. For a 3 BUS architecture, is the below code correct for adding three numbers?

PCout, R = B, Marin, READ, Inc PC
WMFC
MDRout, R = B, IRin
R4outa, R5outb, Select A, ADD, R6in, End

a) True
b) False
View Answer

Answer: a
Explanation: We have assumed the names of the three BUSes have A, B and C.

5. The main advantage of multiple bus organisation over a single bus is __________

7. If the instruction Add R1, R2, R3 is executed in a system which is pipelined, then the value of S is (Where S is term of the Basic performance equation).
a) 3
b) ~2
c) ~1
d) 6
View Answer

Answer: c
Explanation: The value will be much lower in case of multiple BUS organisation.

8. In multiple BUS organisation __________ is used to select any of the BUSes for input into ALU.
a) MUX
b) DE-MUX
c) En-CDS
d) None of the mentioned
View Answer

Answer: a
Explanation: The MUX can be used to either select the BUS or to increment the PC.
