Explain the difference between hardwired control and microprogrammed control. Is it possible to have a hardwired control associated with a control memory?
a) Hardwired control uses microinstructions, while microprogrammed control uses hardwired instructions. No, hardwired control cannot be associated with a control memory.
b) Hardwired control uses hardwired instructions, while microprogrammed control uses microinstructions. No, hardwired control cannot be associated with a control memory.
c) Hardwired control uses hardwired instructions, while microprogrammed control uses microinstructions. Yes, hardwired control can be associated with a control memory.
d) Hardwired control uses microinstructions, while microprogrammed control uses hardwired instructions. Yes, hardwired control can be associated with a control memory.
