9. 9 Basic concepts Advantages and disadvantage The principal advantage of the use of microprogramming to implement a control unit is that it simplifies the design of control unit. Thus it is both cheaper and less error-prone to implement. A hardwired control unit must contain complex logic for sequencing through the many micro-operations of instruction cycle. On the other hand, the decoder and sequencing logic unit of a microprogrammed control unit are very simple pieces of logic.

10. 10 Microinstruction sequencing The two basic tasks performed by microprogrammed control unit as follows: 1.Microinstruction sequencing 2.Microinstruction execution

11. 11 Microinstruction sequencing Two concerns are involved in he design of microinstruction sequencing technique: the size of microinstruction and address- generation time. The first concern is obvious: minimizing the size of the control memory reduces the cost of that component. The second concern is simply a desire to execute microinstruction as fast possible. Design considerations In executing, a microprogram, the address of the next microinstruction to be executed is in one of these categories: 1.Determined by instruction register 2.Next sequential address 3.Branch
