Consider a machine which implements an ISA in which every instruction is 32 bits long and has the following format:
Where DR = Destination Register, SR = Source Register, and IMMVAL = Immediate Value. The fields DR, SR are represented using the same number of bits.
If there are 7 bits for the opcode and 16 registers,
A.) How many unique opcodes can be represented?
B.) What is the minimum number of bits required for the source register (SR) field?
C.) If IMMVAL represents an unsigned value, what is the range of values (in decimal) that can be represented using the immediate value field?
Opcode = 7 bits | DR = 4 bits | SR = 4 bits | IMMVAL = 17 bits |
A) 27 = 128 unique opcodes can be represented by 7 bits.
B) SR can use any of the 16 registers so the minimum number of bits required = 4 as 24 = 16
C) The remaining bits for IMMVAL = 32 -(7+4+4) = 17 bits
So it can have a range of unsigned values from 0 to 131071(217 - 1)

Can someone explain how they'd get the answer to this problem step-by-step? 4.7 Suppose a 32-bit instruction takes the following format: | OPCODE SR DR IMM . If there are 60 opcodes and 32 registers, what is the range of valucs that can be represented by the immediate (IMM)? Assume IMM is a 2's complement value. 4.7 Suppose a 32-bit instruction takes the following format: | OPCODE SR DR IMM . If there are 60 opcodes and 32 registers, what...
(d) 7650 (e) None of the above Question 7 [18 Points]-Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) I. Suppose an instruction set has 32-bit instructions. Every instruction has an 8-bit opcode and a 12- bit immediate operand. Some instructions have three register operands (two sources and a destination register). Every instruction that uses registers must be able to specify any of the registers. How many registers can this instruction set support? (a) 32. (b) 64. (c) 16. (d) There is not enough information...
OPCODE DR SR IMM Assume a 16-bit instruction with the above format. If there are 32 opcodes and we want to represent values in the range of [-16, 15] in the IMM field, What is the maximum number of registers that this machine can have?

pls both ans Question 20 5 pts Suppose a computer has 32-bit instructions. The instruction set consists of 64 different operations. All instructions have an opcode and two address fields (allowing for two addresses). The first of these addresses must be a register direct address, and the second must be a memory address. Expanding opcodes are not used. The machine has 16 registers. How many bits can be used for the memory address? Question 21 5 pts Suppose we have...

HELP ME WITH TRUE / FALSE and Multiple choices. Fixed-width instructions make it difficult to decode because the number of bytes each instruction is using can change. True False A register is incremented by either a byte or a word to advance to the next element in an array with Indexed Addressing. True False The "la" instruction is an example of a pseudo-instruction. True False PC-relative addressing uses the program counter as the base address. True False PC-relative addressing uses...
Assume the program counter (PC) is initially equal to n. Assume that the word length of the processor is 1. a) How many fetches are required to make PC equal to m if there are no branch instructions between n and m? b) What is the content of the instruction register (IR) when the PC’s value is n+k? Justify your answer. Why we are not using a hundred pipeline stages if anoperation can be divided up into a hundred steps,...
