Given below are two statements:
Statement I : Hardwired control unit can be optimized to produce fast mode of operation.
Statement II : Indirect addressing mode needs two memory reference to fetch the operand. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below
Pick an option to check yourself, or open the answer below.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A. Both Statement I and Statement II are true
Explanation
Hardwired control is fast because it is built from gates, and indirect addressing reads memory twice (once for the address, once for the operand). Both true.
