Question

If a system's instruction set consists of an 6-bit opcode, what is the maximum number of instructions the system can have? Explain why.

Expert Solution

Explanation

1) An opcode (abbreviated from operation code) is the portion of a machine language instruction that specifies the operation to be performed.

2) Every processor/controller has its own set of opcodes defined in its architecture which tells the hardware what operation needs to be performed with this instruction.

3) So having 6 bits for the opcode means only that you are able to encode up to $2^{6}$ =64 different instructions which can be interpreted in a single decode cycle

4) So if a system's instruction set consists of an 6-bit opcode, 64 maximum number of instructions the system can have
