Show the steps of the CPU fetch-execute cycle for the divide instruction
CPU fetch-execute cycle for the divide instruction:
The CPU stans for Cental processing Unit fetch the instructios from the main memory to the registers. The registers are known as immediate access store. The program counter holds one register.
The "program counter" contains the "memory address" of the upcoming instruction which is fetched from "main memory".
When it need to perform the arithmetic instructions like addition, multiplication, subtraction, and divide instructions, it orders the ALU to perform the instructions, which performs all "arithmetic and logical operations".
After that CPU decodes the instructions and execute the instructions.
The cycle repeated until there is no more instructions to perform.
