1. The ALU of a computer, normally contains a number of high-speed storage element, is called-
- A. Semiconductor Memory
- B. Semiconductor Memory
- C. Semiconductor Memory
- D. Semiconductor Memory
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
The high-speed storage elements in an ALU are called registers. These registers are small, high-speed memory locations within the CPU that hold temporary data during arithmetic and logical operations.
- Function: Registers allow the ALU to perform operations on data quickly, as they are accessed much faster than main memory or other storage devices.
- Location: They are physically located inside the CPU, either as part of the ALU or closely connected to it.
- Examples: They store operands (the data being operated on), intermediate results, and the final output of operations
