Q:

Explain compiler?

Answer

compiler is used to translate the high-level language program into machine code at a time. It doesn't require special instruction to store in a memory, it stores automatically. the execution time is less compared interpreter.


A compiler is a program that translates a source program written in some high-level programming langualge (such as Java) into machine code for some computer architecture (such as the Inter Pentium archiecture).

Q:

What is cache memory?

Answer

Cache momory is a small high-speed memory. it is used for temporary storage of data & information between the main memory and the CPU(center processing unit). The cache memory is only in RAM.


Cache memory is random access memory (RAM) that a computer microprocessor can access more quickly than it can access regular RAM. AS the microprocessor processes data, it looks in the cache memory and if it finds the data there.

Q:

what is the interrupt?

Answer

interrupt is a signal send by external device to the processor so as to request the processor to perform a particular work.


A signal informing a program that an events has occurred. when a program receives an interrupt signal, it takes a specified action (which can be to ignore the signal).

Q:

What are the static and dynamic hazards in logic circuits?

Answer

If for a short period of time circuits goes to some different logic level then it is spposed to have then it is called static hazard. e.g., If the final logic value of output of given circuit becomes one vent if if is supposed to be zero then it is called static-0 Hazard and vice versa. Dynamic Hazard is the one in which the circuit output goes to some other logic level more than once then finally settling down to some appropriate level.

Q:

What is LATCH?

Answer

Latch is a D-type flip-flop used as a temporary tsorage device controlled by a tiing singnal, which can store 0 or 1. the primary function of a Latch is data storage. It is used in output devices such as LED, to hold the data for display.


To Store Monitor programs.

Q:

What is the difference between microprocessor and micro-controller?

Answer

In microprocessor more op-codes, few bit handling instrucitons. But in Microcontroller. fewer op-codes, more bit handling Instruction, and also it is defined as a device that includes micro processor, memory, & input / output signal lines on a single chip.


the basic architectual difference is that microcontroller has an programmable memory while it is not the case with mivroprocessors.
