Resource summary
Fetch Execute Cycle
MAR <-- [PC]
The contents of the Program Counter are copied into the Memory Address Register
This is so that the next instruction can be fetched
MBR<--[Memory] PC <-- [PC]+1
These two actions happen simultaneously
The contents of the Memory Address specified in the MAR are fetched (copied) from memory and placed in the Memory Buffer Register
The contents of the Program Counter are incremented so that it now points to the address of the NEXT instruction
CIR <--[MBR]
The contents of the Memory Buffer Register are copied to the Current Instruction Register
[CIR] Decode
Execute
The OPCODE may require data to be fetched from Memory into the Accumulator
The OPCODE may require data to be put into the Accumulator from the OPERAND
The OPCODE may require an operation to be applied to the contents of the Accumulator
The contents of the Current Instruction Register are now decoded by examining the OPCODE
