What are component parts of the CPU? Describe how each component works. Solution Answer: There are three compoents of the central processing unit. 1. Arithmetic Logical Unit 2. Control Unit 3. Registers. 1. Arithmetic Logical Unit: Arithmetic Logical Unit is maily used for arithmetic calculation like addition, sustration, multiplecation and division. This unit can also compare the numbers and letters and special characters as well. 2. Control Unit This unit is maily used for controling and managing the computer components. This unit got the instruction from main memory and will decode it and execute them. This unit will communicate between ALU and memory. Simply we can say below 1. Receive the instruction from memory 2. Decode the instructions 3. Execute the instructions 4. Manage the outputs. 3. Registers: Registers are temporary storage areas that can be used for store the instruction that are to be proceed. These registers will have sub aspects lik program counters, stacks and flags etc. .
